[PATCH 5.0 037/137] vxge: fix return of a freed memblock on a failed dma mapping

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

 



[ Upstream commit 0a2c34f18c94b596562bf3d019fceab998b8b584 ]

Currently if a pci dma mapping failure is detected a free'd
memblock address is returned rather than a NULL (that indicates
an error). Fix this by ensuring NULL is returned on this error case.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Use after free")
Fixes: 528f727279ae ("vxge: code cleanup and reorganization")
