[patch] dm-cache-target: check for allocation failure

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

 



The allocation here isn't checked.  I changed it to using kcalloc()
as a cleanup.  It adds integer overflow checking as well which makes
the code easier to audit.

I expect that kbuild will complain about this soon?
