netfilter: conntrack: fix NF_REPEAT handling
gcc correctly identified a theoretical uninitialized variable use: net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c: In function 'nf_conntrack_in': net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:1125:14: error: 'l4proto' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] This could only happen when we 'goto out' before looking up l4proto, and then enter the retry, implying that l3proto->get_l4proto() returned NF_REPEAT. This does not currently get returned in any code path and probably won't ever happen, but is not good to rely on. Moving the repeat handling up a little should have the same behavior as today but avoids the warning by making that case impossible to enter. [ I have mangled this original patch to remove the check for tmpl, we should inconditionally jump back to the repeat label in case we hit NF_REPEAT instead. I have also moved the comment that explains this where it belongs. --pablo ] Fixes: 08733a0cb7de ("netfilter: handle NF_REPEAT from nf_conntrack_in()") Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
