Linux kernel source tree
7f6e7186f9
[why]
Before a statically allocated PPS data structure, that did
get zeroed-out at startup, had been re-used for making packed PPS
SDP. With S3 fix, using a non-initialized PPS data structure was
introduced, while wrongly assuming it'd get initialized before it's
populated. As a consequence 'vbr_enable' and perhaps some other
fields are left uninitialized when making packed PPS SDP. This can
affect 'simple_422' as well because of the way PPS SDP packing is
done (the fields are not masked first, only shifted). The behavior
will be different, depending on the content of uninitialized data.
[how]
Zero-out PPS data structure at initialization time before it's
populated

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
