Re: [PATCH 7/7] dccp: Initialise option area of v4/v6 request socket

[Gerrit Renker <gerrit@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

| 
| The problem is present in TCP too, look at cookie_v4_check and
| tcp_v4_conn_request, we may get to reqsk_free before we set ->opt if
| security_inet_conn_request() returns non zero.
| 
| This is one case where bugs found on DCCP lead to an audit of the
| similar code in TCP and the fix should be done on the common
| infrastructure.
Thanks a lot, this is a better solution and removes the headache
regarding "why do I need to zero this out first".

Very happy to rebuild tree, which looks better with this change.
