[PATCH] ALSA: pcm: Check for null pointer of pointer substream before dereferencing it

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

 



Pointer substream is being dereferenced on the assignment of pointer card
before substream is being null checked with the macro PCM_RUNTIME_CHECK.
Although PCM_RUNTIME_CHECK calls BUG_ON, it still is useful to perform the
the pointer check before card is assigned.

Fixes: commit d4cfb30fce03 ("ALSA: pcm: Set per-card upper limit of PCM buffer allocations")
