[PATCH] media: meson: add missing allocation failure check on new_buf

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

 



From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently if the allocation of new_buf fails then a null pointer
dereference occurs when assiging new_buf->vb. Avoid this by returning
early on a memory allocation failure as there is not much more can
be done at this point.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference null return")
Fixes: 3e7f51bd9607 ("media: meson: add v4l2 m2m video decoder driver")
Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
