[PATCH] ACPICA: Handle memory allocation failure

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

 



In acpi_db_convert_to_package() ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED() may return NULL
in case of memory allocation error. This will lead to NULL pointer
dereference.
Fix this bug by adding NULL return check.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
