Subject: [PATCH] mm/vmalloc: Add check for KMEM_CACHE
Date: Thu, 24 Nov 2022 12:02:26 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221124040226.17953-1-jiasheng@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)
As KMEM_CACHE may return NULL pointer, it should
be better to check the return value in order to
avoid NULL pointer dereference in kmem_cache_zalloc.
Fixes: 68ad4a330433 ("mm/vmalloc.c: keep track of free blocks for vmap allocation")
