Subject: [ndctl PATCH 4/5] ndctl, test: fix a potential null pointer dereference in 'ndctl test'
Date: Fri, 10 Aug 2018 16:56:23 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180810225624.32383-5-vishal.l.verma@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180810225624.32383-1-vishal.l.verma@intel.com>

Static analysis reports that we can potentially dereference a null
pointer in the above function. Fix by checking the return value from the
allocation.

Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
Fixes: 8229da8d73a3 ("ndctl: ship the unit test as 'ndctl test'")
