Subject: [PATCH] tomoyo: Avoid potential null pointer access
Date: Wed, 25 Nov 2020 20:10:43 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201125121043.107662-1-zhengzengkai@huawei.com> (raw)

Calls to kzalloc() should be null-checked in order to avoid
any potential failures or unnecessary code execution.
Fix this by adding null checks for _entry_ right after allocation.

Fixes: 57c2590fb7fd ("TOMOYO: Update profile structure")
Reported-by: Hulk Robot <hulkci@huawei.com>
