[PATCH] tpm/ppi: replace assertion code with recovery in tpm_eval_dsm

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

 



In tpm_eval_dsm, BUG_ON on ppi_handle is used as an assertion.
By returning NULL to the callers, instead of crashing, the error
can be better handled.
