Subject: [PATCH v3] staging: wfx: check the return value of devm_kmalloc()
Date: Thu, 17 Feb 2022 23:30:23 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <tencent_9C9780638BA22F9C5709F0DF190480393905@qq.com> (raw)
From: Xiaoke Wang <xkernel.wang@foxmail.com>
devm_kmalloc() returns a pointer to allocated memory on success, NULL
on failure. While there is a memory allocation of devm_kmalloc()
without proper check. It is better to check the return value of it to
prevent wrong memory access.
