Subject: [PATCH 01/10] md/dm-crypt: Use kcalloc() in crypt_alloc_tfms()
Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2016 17:36:45 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <6aabc850-778f-7fc1-0cf7-f8e023ff4c9f@users.sourceforge.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <7c232017-e291-fd2d-5516-26e5150d90df@users.sourceforge.net>
From: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>

* A multiplication for the size determination of a memory allocation
indicated that an array data structure should be processed.
Thus reuse the corresponding function "kcalloc".
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
* Replace the specification of a data type by a pointer dereference
to make the corresponding size determination a bit safer according to
the Linux coding style convention.
Fixes: 5d0be84ec0cacfc7a6d6ea548afdd07d481324cd ("dm crypt: fix free of bad values after tfm allocation failure")
