[PATCH][V3] usb: isp1760: check for null return from kzalloc

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

 



From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

isp1760_ep_alloc_request allocates a structure with kzalloc without checking 
for NULL and then returns a pointer to one of the structure fields. As the 
field happens to be the first in the structure the caller can properly check 
for NULL, but this is risky if the structure layout is changed later. Add an 
explicit NULL check for the kzalloc return value

Detected with smatch static analysis:

drivers/usb/isp1760/isp1760-udc.c:816 isp1760_ep_alloc_request()
  error: potential null dereference 'req'.  (kzalloc returns null)
