[PATCH] ipv4: fix ip header ident selection in __ip_make_skb()
From: Eric Dumazet <hidden>
Date: 2012-08-20 17:26:51
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Christian Casteyde reported a kmemcheck 32-bit read from uninitialized memory in __ip_select_ident(). It turns out that __ip_make_skb() called ip_select_ident() before properly initializing iph->daddr. This is a bug uncovered by commit 1d861aa4b3fb (inet: Minimize use of cached route inetpeer.)
