[PATCH] wifi: brcmfmac: pcie: handle randbuf allocation failure

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

 



The kzalloc() in brcmf_pcie_download_fw_nvram() will return
null if the physical memory has run out. As a result, if we
use get_random_bytes() to generate random bytes in the randbuf,
the null pointer dereference bug will happen.

Return -ENOMEM from brcmf_pcie_download_fw_nvram() if kzalloc()
fails for randbuf.
