This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled nfs: Fix use of uninitialized variable in nfs_getattr() to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.13.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11-ckt12. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.13.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From a745405c6a235f155b0dec0396e77ab71608f740 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Date: Thu, 23 Oct 2014 14:02:47 +0200 Subject: nfs: Fix use of uninitialized variable in nfs_getattr() commit 16caf5b6101d03335b386e77e9e14136f989be87 upstream. Variable 'err' needn't be initialized when nfs_getattr() uses it to check whether it should call generic_fillattr() or not. That can result in spurious error returns. Initialize 'err' properly.
