Subject: [PATCH] iio: dummy: iio_simple_dummy: check the return value of kstrdup()
Date: Mon, 13 Dec 2021 17:18:21 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <tencent_4014A4E1394AA4FF7620EBCC47B9701C9D08@qq.com> (raw)
kstrdup() is also a memory allocation-related function, it return NULL
when some memory errors happen. So it is better to check the return
value of it so to catch the memory error in time.
