Subject: [PATCH V2] util: Remove redundant checks in the openpty()
Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2020 18:55:52 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5F9FE5B8.1030803@huawei.com> (raw)

As we can see from the following function call stack, amaster and aslave
can not be NULL: char_pty_open() -> qemu_openpty_raw() -> openpty().
In addition, according to the API specification for openpty():
https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Pseudo_002dTerminal-Pairs.html,
the arguments name, termp and winp can all be NULL, but arguments amaster or aslave
can not be NULL.
Finally, amaster and aslave has been dereferenced at the beginning of the openpty().
So the checks on amaster and aslave in the openpty() are redundant. Remove them.
