[PATCH] kvm: fix incorrect NULL check on list iterator

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

 



The bug is here:
	if (!p)
                return ret;

The list iterator value 'p' will *always* be set and non-NULL by
list_for_each_entry(), so it is incorrect to assume that the iterator
value will be NULL if the list is empty or no element is found.

To fix the bug, Use a new value 'iter' as the list iterator, while use
the old value 'p' as a dedicated variable to point to the found element.
