src/rtnlutil.c: In function ‘rtnl_route_add’:
./ell/util.h:248:2: error: ‘rtmmsg’ may be used uninitialized in
this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
The API allows to add connected and gateway routes to the main
routing table.
rtnl_route_ipv4_add_gateway() is equivalent to the following
example 'ip route' command:
ip route add default via 10.0.0.1 dev wlan0 proto dhcp src 10.0.0.2 metric 339
rtnl_route_ipv4_add_connected() is equivalent to the following
example 'ip route' command:
sudo ip route add 10.0.0.0/24 dev wlan0 proto dhcp src 10.0.0.2 scope link
The 'ip route' output from the above commands looks as follows:
rtnl_route_ipv4_add_connected():
10.0.0.0/24 dev wlan0 proto dhcp scope link src 10.0.0.2
rtnl_route_ipv4_add_gateway():
default via 10.0.0.1 dev wlan0 proto dhcp src 10.0.0.2 metric 339
Use memset instead. explicit_bzero should only be used when we're
wiping a secret just prior to the encopassing storage being freed. The
compiler would usually optimize away the memset, leaving the secrets
around.
In rtnlutil we're simply zeroing the structure prior to filling it, so
the use of explicit_bzero is not needed and brings confusion to the
reader since no secrets are being wiped.
