[PATCH 02/11] virtio_console: Less function calls in init_vqs() after error detection

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

 



From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The kfree() function was called in up to five cases
by the init_vqs() function during error handling even if
the passed variable contained a null pointer.

* Return directly after a call of the function "kmalloc_array" failed
  at the beginning.

* Split a condition check for memory allocation failures so that
  each pointer from these function calls will be checked immediately.

  See also background information:
  Topic "CWE-754: Improper check for unusual or exceptional conditions"
  Link: https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/754.html

* Adjust jump targets according to the Linux coding style convention.
