[PATCH-next] x86/kernel: Fix unchecked return value

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

 



>From the coverity scan analysis, the return value from
insn_decode_kernel is not checked. It is a macro constructed
from the insn_decode function which may fail and return
negative integer. Fix this by explicitly checking the
return value.
