[PATCH v2 1/2] KVM: s390: Improve determination of sizes in kvm_s390_import_bp_data()

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

 



From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

* A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation
  indicated that an array data structure should be processed.
  Thus reuse the corresponding function "kmalloc_array".

  Suggested-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

  This issue was detected also by using the Coccinelle software.

* Replace the specification of data structures by pointer dereferences
  to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to
  the Linux coding style convention.

* Delete the local variable "size" which became unnecessary with
  this refactoring.

v2: Rebased on source files from "Linux next-20160824".
    Advices were integrated from source code review.
