[libvirt] [PATCH] network: plug unininitialized read found by valgrind
* src/util/network.c (virSocketAddrMask): Zero out port, so that
iptables can initialize just the netmask, then call
virSocketFormatAddr without an uninitialized read in getnameinfo.
---
I'm not sure if this is the best patch; an alternative would be
to call memset(network,0,sizeof network) in iptablesFormatNetwork
prior to virSocketAddrMaskByPrefix. But with this patch in place,
valgrind no longer complained about:
==31478== Use of uninitialised value of size 8
==31478== at 0x3021643DAB: _itoa_word (in /lib64/libc-2.12.so)
==31478== by 0x3021644E74: vfprintf (in /lib64/libc-2.12.so)
==31478== by 0x302166EFB1: vsnprintf (in /lib64/libc-2.12.so)

==31478== by 0x4E4FCAE: virSocketFormatAddr (network.c:152)
==31478== by 0x4E43688: iptablesFormatNetwork (iptables.c:307)
==31478== by 0x4E43FDE: iptablesForwardMasquerade (iptables.c:761)
==31478== by 0x4E44392: iptablesRemoveForwardMasquerade (iptables.c:863)
==31478== by 0x4A8BEF: networkRemoveMasqueradingIptablesRules (bridge_driver.c:893)
==31478== by 0x4A9BCA: networkRemoveIpSpecificIptablesRules (bridge_driver.c:1244)
==31478== Uninitialised value was created by a stack allocation
==31478== at 0x4E43570: iptablesFormatNetwork (iptables.c:289)
So I'm assuming that the uninitialized read was due to gethostname
looking at the port field which was still filled with uninitialized
stack data.
