Subject: Q. d_alloc() in pipe(2)
Date: Tue, 29 Dec 2009 14:55:20 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021.1262066120@jrobl> (raw)
In pipe(2), create_write_pipe() creates a dentry by
struct qstr name = { .name = "" };
d_alloc(root, &name);
But d_alloc() refers name->len which is uninitialized.
Isn't it better to replace d_alloc() by d_alloc_name(root, "")?
