[PATCH v3] staging: rtl8192u: null check the kzalloc

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

 



In rtl8192_init_priv_variable allocation for priv->pFirmware may fail,
so a null check is necessary.priv->pFirmware is accessed later in
rtl8192_adapter_start. I added the check and made appropriate changes
to propagate the errno to the caller.

Update v2: fixed style errors
Update V3: fixed prefix
