Subject: [PATCH] apparmor: fix error check
Date: Sun, 4 Oct 2020 07:24:22 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201004142422.5717-1-trix@redhat.com> (raw)
From: Tom Rix <trix@redhat.com>
clang static analysis reports this representative problem:
label.c:1463:16: warning: Assigned value is garbage or undefined
label->hname = name;
^ ~~~~
In aa_update_label_name(), this the problem block of code
if (aa_label_acntsxprint(&name, ...) == -1)
return res;
On failure, aa_label_acntsxprint() has a more complicated return
that just -1. So check for a negative return.
It was also noted that the aa_label_acntsxprint() main comment refers
to a nonexistent parameter, so clean up the comment.
Fixes: f1bd904175e8 ("apparmor: add the base fns() for domain labels")
