[alsa-devel] [patch] ALSA: hda - using uninitialized data
In olden times the snd_hda_param_read() function always set "*start_id" but in 2007 we introduced a new return and it causes uninitialized data bugs in a couple of the callers: print_codec_info() and hdmi_parse_codec().
Fixes: e8a7f136f5ed ('[ALSA] hda-intel - Improve HD-audio codec probing robustness') Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter dan.carpenter@oracle.com --- This is from static analysis. Untested.
