[PATCH] tools: iio: iio_generic_buffer: initialize channel array pointer

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

 



Uninitialized channel pointer causes segmentation fault when we
call free(channel) during cleanup() with no channels initialized.
This happens when you exit early for usage errors.  Initialize
the pointer to NULL when it is declared.
