Subject: [PATCH] nbd: avoid losing the pointer to reallocated config->socks in nbd_add_socket()
Date: Sat, 6 Oct 2018 20:07:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181006180703.GA1870@asgard.redhat.com> (raw)

In the (very unlikely) case of config->socks reallocation success and
nsock allocation failure config->nsock will not get updated with the new pointer
to socks array. Fix it by updating config->socks right after reallocation
successfulness check.

Fixes: 9561a7ade0c2 ("nbd: add multi-connection support")
