Subject: [PATCH 1/3] iscsi-target: Use kcalloc() in iscsit_allocate_iovecs()
Date: Sun, 09 Apr 2017 14:23:41 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ba9505d9-9c00-9534-c16b-4fab5403a57e@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <f573fbbe-aef2-7b68-1540-ceb2f30a6aa6@users.sourceforge.net>

From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>

* A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation
  indicated that an array data structure should be processed.
  Thus use the corresponding function "kcalloc".

  This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* Replace the specification of a data structure by a pointer dereference
  to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to
  the Linux coding style convention.
