From: Jay Kamat <jgkamat@xxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 48c2bb0b9cf863e0ed78e269f188ce65b73e0fd1 ] Fix a couple issues with cg_read_strcmp(), to improve correctness of cgroup tests - Fix cg_read_strcmp() always returning 0 for empty "needle" strings. Previously, this function read to a size = 1 buffer when comparing against empty strings, which would lead to cg_read_strcmp() comparing two empty strings. - Fix a memory leak in cg_read_strcmp() Fixes: 84092dbcf901 ("selftests: cgroup: add memory controller self-tests") Signed-off-by: Jay Kamat <jgkamat@xxxxxx> Acked-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan (Samsung OSG) <shuah@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <alexander.levin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- tools/testing/selftests/cgroup/cgroup_util.c | 17 ++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/cgroup/cgroup_util.c b/tools/testing/selftests/cgroup/cgroup_util.c index 1e9e3c470561..8b644ea39725 100644 --- a/tools/testing/selftests/cgroup/cgroup_util.c +++ b/tools/testing/selftests/cgroup/cgroup_util.c @@ -89,17 +89,28 @@ int cg_read(const char *cgroup, const char *control, char *buf, size_t len) int cg_read_strcmp(const char *cgroup, const char *control, const char *expected) { - size_t size = strlen(expected) + 1; + size_t size; char *buf; + int ret; + + /* Handle the case of comparing against empty string */ + if (!expected) + size = 32; + else + size = strlen(expected) + 1; buf = malloc(size); if (!buf) return -1; - if (cg_read(cgroup, control, buf, size)) + if (cg_read(cgroup, control, buf, size)) { + free(buf); return -1; + } - return strcmp(expected, buf); + ret = strcmp(expected, buf); + free(buf); + return ret; } int cg_read_strstr(const char *cgroup, const char *control, const char *needle) -- 2.17.1
