Found these when doing something else. Shouldn't cause any functional change. Phil Sutter (2): tc: m_action: Fix for field init before memset tc: m_action: Drop unused variable nladdr in tc_action_gd() tc/m_action.c | 15 +++------------ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) -- 2.8.2

From: Phil Sutter <redacted> This has been there since the introduction of tc/m_action.c back in 2004 and was apparently never in use. Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc> --- tc/m_action.c | 4 ---- 1 file changed, 4 deletions(-)

From: Phil Sutter <redacted> Initializing req.t.tca_family before setting the whole req object to zero using memset does not make sense. Instead initialize the field after calling memset. Note that this change has no functional effect since AF_UNSPEC is defined to 0 anyway, so this fix is a purely cosmetic one.

Instead of moving around the code with memset(), it would make more sense to change this and other places to use C99 style initializers. They are safer and the code is cleaner.
