From fca0ca95c34dde7e735ef322c599dfa0b4a2deae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pan Bian Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2016 20:50:30 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] usb: return correct errno code when krealloc fails In function wusb_dev_sec_add(), variable result takes the return value. Its value should be negative on failures. When function krealloc() is called, an earlier check of variable result guarantees that the value of result must not be less than "sizeof(*secd)", and result is not reassigned when krealloc() returns a NULL pointer. As a result, a positive value may be returned, which makes it impossible for the caller of wusb_dev_sec_add() to detect the error. This patch fixes the bug by assigning -ENOMEM to result when krealloc() returns NULL.
