tcp: Checking a kmemdup() call in tcp_time_wait()

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

 



Hello,

I tried another script for the semantic patch language out.
This source code analysis approach points out that the implementation
of the function “tcp_time_wait” contains also a call of the function “kmemdup”.

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.4-rc2/source/net/ipv4/tcp_minisocks.c#L306

* Do you find the usage of the macro call “BUG_ON” still appropriate at this place?

* Is there a need to adjust the error handling here?

Regards,
Markus
