[PATCH 2/2] tools/testing/nvdimm: Improve error detection in __test_alloc()

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

 



From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Three checks were combined at the beginning of the __test_alloc() function.
This implementation detail can become safer according to the Linux coding
style convention.

* Return directly if a null pointer was passed for the variable "buf".
  Delete an unnecessary check then.

* Allocate memory for the data structure "nfit_test_resource"
  only if a previous allocation succeeded.

* Rename a jump label.
