[PATCH 1/5] IB/qib: Use kcalloc() in qib_init_iba7322_funcs()

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

* A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation
  indicated that an array data structure should be processed.
  Thus use the corresponding function "kcalloc".

  This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* Replace the specification of a data structure by a pointer dereference
  to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to
  the Linux coding style convention.
