[PATCH] scftorture: Handle NULL argument passed to scf_add_to_free_list().

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

 



Dan reported that after the rework the newly introduced
scf_add_to_free_list() may get a NULL pointer passed. This replaced
kfree() which was fine with a NULL pointer but scf_add_to_free_list()
isn't.

Let scf_add_to_free_list() handle NULL pointer.

Thank you Dan. I had to look twice, that `scfsp' above looked almost
identical.
