[patch] Bluetooth: fix ->alloc_skb() error checking

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

 



There are two functions that implement ->alloc_skb().

a2mp_cahan_alloc_skb_cb() returns NULL.
l2cap_sock_alloc_skb_cb() returns an ERR_PTR.

The callers all check for ERR_PTRs and don't check for NULL.  On the
other hand bt_skb_alloc() and the core net alloc_skb() return NULL so
returning an error pointer is inconsistent.  This confusion between some
alloc_skb() functions returning ERR_PTR and some returning NULL has been
a source of bugs such as 787949039fcd ('Bluetooth: fix return value
check').  This patch makes ->alloc_skb() return NULL and changes the
callers to match.
