Subject: [PATCH][next] KVM: x86/mmu: Fix uninitialized boolean variable flush
Date: Tue, 22 Jun 2021 16:09:12 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210622150912.23429-1-colin.king@canonical.com> (raw)

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

In the case where kvm_memslots_have_rmaps(kvm) is false the boolean
variable flush is not set and is uninitialized.  If is_tdp_mmu_enabled(kvm)
is true then the call to kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_collapsible_sptes passes the
uninitialized value of flush into the call. Fix this by initializing
flush to false.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized scalar variable")
Fixes: e2209710ccc5 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Skip rmap operations if rmaps not allocated")
