[PATCH 3/3 net-next] test_objagg: Uninitialized variable in error handling

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

 



We need to set the error message on this path otherwise some of the
callers, such as test_hints_case(), print from an uninitialized pointer.

We had a similar bug earlier and set "errmsg" to NULL in the caller,
test_delta_action_item().  That code is no longer required so I have
removed it.

Fixes: 9069a3817d82 ("lib: objagg: implement optimization hints assembly and use hints for object creation")
