Subject: [PATCH 02/15] tpm/tpm_ppi: Check return value of acpi_get_name
Date: Sat, 4 Jan 2014 03:44:36 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1388803489-13258-2-git-send-email-peterhuewe@gmx.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1388803489-13258-1-git-send-email-peterhuewe@gmx.de>
From: Peter Huewe <PeterHuewe@gmx.de>
If
status = acpi_get_name(handle, ACPI_FULL_PATHNAME, &buffer);
fails for whatever reason and does not return AE_OK
if (strstr(buffer.pointer, context) != NULL) {
does dereference a null pointer.
-> Check the return value and return the status to the caller
