Subject: [PATCH] block: floppy: fix uninitialized use of outparam in fd_locked_ioctl
Date: Sun,  6 Jul 2025 12:52:13 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250706072213.14954-1-purvayeshi550@gmail.com> (raw)

Fix Smatch-detected error:
drivers/block/floppy.c:3569 fd_locked_ioctl() error:
uninitialized symbol 'outparam'.

Use the outparam pointer only after it is explicitly initialized.
Previously, fd_copyout() was called unconditionally after the switch-case
statement, assuming outparam would always be set when _IOC_READ was active.
However, not all paths ensured this, which led to potential use of an
uninitialized pointer.

Move fd_copyout() calls directly into the relevant case blocks immediately
after outparam is set. This ensures it is only called when safe and
applicable.
