[PATCH 01/12] software node: Prevent potential NULL Pointer Dereference

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

 



Software nodes are not forced to have device properties.
Adding check to property_entries_dup() to make it possible
to create software nodes that don't have any properties.
