Subject: [PATCH] media: davinci_vpfe: bail out if kmalloc failed
Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2018 12:25:29 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1542713129-14110-1-git-send-email-hofrat@osadl.org> (raw)

 The kmalloc is passed indirectly to  from  but with an offset
which if not 0 will cause the null check if (to && from && size) 
to succeed. An explicit !NULL check is thus added for params here.

 ipipe_s_config and ipipe_g_config - both fail to check kmalloc
are called from ipipe_ioctl where a negative return is a valid
indication of error so simply setting rval = -ENOMEM seems ok.

Problem located with experimental coccinelle patch

Patch was compile tested with: davinci_all_defconfig + SAGING=y,
STAGING_MEDIA=y, MEDIA_SUPPORT=m, MEDIA_CONTROLLER=y,
VIDEO_V4L2_SUBDEV_API=y, VIDEO_DAVINCI_VPBE_DISPLAY=m,
VIDEO_DM365_VPFE=m
(with some coccicheck findings unrelated to the proposed change)

Patch is against 4.20-rc3 (localversion-next is next-20181120)
