Subject: [PATCH] - fix possible bug in scsi/sr_ioctl.c.
Date: Wed, 26 May 2004 18:41:21 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040526214121.GE1314@lorien.prodam> (raw)


 Hi,

 In scsci/sr_ioctl.c::sr_audio_ioctl() (line 329) there is a
possible bug (found by coverity's checker): if kmalloc() returns NULL,
the contents of `buffer' will be used in the body of `case CDROMREADTOCHDR',
and `case CDROMREADTOCENTRY' whitout any memory allocated.

 The patch bellow fix that. My suggestion is to put de definition
of `buffer' only in the places where it is used, because in
`case CDROMPLAYTRKIND' don't use it, so it does not need to
allocate it.
