[PATCH] sfc: potential dereference of null pointer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The return value of kcalloc() needs to be checked.
To avoid dereference of null pointer in case of the failure of alloc,
such as efx_fini_rx_recycle_ring().
Therefore, it should be better to change the definition of page_ptr_mask
to signed int and then assign the page_ptr_mask to -1 when page_ring is
NULL, in order to avoid the use in the loop in
efx_fini_rx_recycle_ring().
