Dereferencing a null pointer in a module

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

 




Hi,

Maybe this is a trivial question, but I was wondering what happens if a NULL-pointer is dereferenced in kernel mode (e.g. in a module).

Is the behavior architecture specific?

Any hints would be appreciated!

Cheers,

Hendrik
