[PATCH 0/1] netlabel: KMSAN warning

From: Andrew Kanner
Date: Tue Aug 15 2023 - 17:00:36 EST


Recently I started to use KMSAN and found the warning in
security/selinux/hooks.c which triggers each time I use the official
guide to run syzkaller reproducers

Link: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/blob/master/docs/syzbot_assets.md#run-a-c-reproducer

I'm not quiet confident what are the rules in security subsystem. It's
not a bug, but a warning which is triggered by KMSAN for the argument
of the security_net_peersid_resolve() which was not initialized. It
will not affect anything inside this function, at least with the
current order of checking the variables, which might eventually
change.

Please reply if you're ok with such not-a-bug fixes. Otherwise I'll
just ignore this warning in my experiments with KMSAN.

PS: most likely if fixes commit 220deb966ea5 ("SELinux: Better
integration between peer labeling subsystems"). Not sure if this tag
is needed for this patch.
