Subject: [PATCH] selftests/mm: Replace obsolete memalign() with posix_memalign()
Date: Wed, 12 Apr 2023 05:35:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230412093520.1591-1-wangdeming@inspur.com> (raw)

memalign() is obsolete according to its manpage.

Replace memalign() with posix_memalign().

As a pointer is passed into posix_memalign(),initialize *map to
NULL,to silence a warning about the function's return value being
used as uninitialized (which is not valid anyway because the
error is properly checked before p is returned).
