We can do that, or move the declaration to the only block that uses it.
Like this:
 ...
@@ -466,6 +465,7 @@ sctp_disposition_t sctp_sf_do_5_1C_ack(const struct 
sctp_endpoint *ep,
        if (!sctp_verify_init(asoc, chunk->chunk_hdr->type,
                              (sctp_init_chunk_t *)chunk->chunk_hdr, chunk,
                              &err_chunk)) {
+               sctp_error_t error;
SCTP_INC_STATS(SCTP_MIB_ABORTEDS);


It's still potentially used uninitialized.

It will only get set if err_chunk is non-zero.

But even if err_chunk is zero, we try to use this
variable.

That's the whole problem, simply moving the variable to
a different scope is not going to fix anything.


Hmm... in the code I am looking at, it's set in both zero and
non-zero cases so it does solve the issue.

So does initializing it to NO_ERROR like you did.
