[PATCH] dma-buf: check the return value of kstrdup()

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

 



From: Xiaoke Wang <xkernel.wang@xxxxxxxxxxx>

kstrdup() is a memory allocation function which can return NULL when
some internaly memory errors happen. It is better to check the return
value of it to prevent further wrong memory access.
