This series handles memset related bugs indentified by PVS Studio. The root cause is that Gcc and other compilers are free to optimize away memset called before free.
Most of the places memset was being used like this were bogus; probably some developer debug habit, and can be safely removed. Stephen Hemminger (8): eal: introduce new secure memory fill eal: add new secure free function crypto/qat: force zero of keys crypto/qat: fix size calculation for memset crypto/qat: use secure memset bus/uacce: remove memset before free compress/octeontx: remove unnecessary memset test: remove unneeded memset app/test/test_cmdline_cirbuf.c | 2 -- drivers/bus/uacce/uacce.c | 1 - drivers/compress/octeontx/otx_zip.c | 1 - drivers/compress/octeontx/otx_zip_pmd.c | 2 -- drivers/crypto/qat/qat_asym.c | 5 +---- drivers/crypto/qat/qat_sym_session.c | 27 +++++++++++----------- lib/eal/common/rte_malloc.c | 30 ++++++++++++++++++++----- lib/eal/include/rte_malloc.h | 18 +++++++++++++++ lib/eal/include/rte_string_fns.h | 27 ++++++++++++++++++++++ lib/eal/version.map | 3 +++ 10 files changed, 87 insertions(+), 29 deletions(-) -- 2.45.2
