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

 



From: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@xxxxxxxxx>

commit d18b2f43b9147c8005ae0844fb445d8cc6a87e31 upstream.

Check the result of __vmalloc() to avoid dereferencing a NULL pointer in
the event that allocation failres.

Fixes: d1e5b0e98ea27 ("kvm: Make VM ioctl do valloc for some archs")
