Subject: UDF possible NULL pointer usage
Date: Sun, 18 Mar 2007 11:36:16 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070318083616.GA10496@cvg> (raw)
Hi Ben,
you know the udf_fill_inode() in inode.c does not
check if memory allocation failed:
UDF_I_DATA(inode) = kmalloc(inode->i_sb->s_blocksize -
sizeof(struct extendedFileEntry), GFP_KERNEL);
so the question I have is - what kind of handler there
should be: just exit out from the function or mark
the inode as bad?
Cyrill
