Subject: [RFC PATCH 03/15] reftable: don't memset() a NULL from failed malloc()
Date: Fri, 3 Jun 2022 20:37:40 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <RFC-patch-03.15-0b570d112fc-20220603T183608Z-avarab@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <RFC-cover-00.15-00000000000-20220603T183608Z-avarab@gmail.com>
Return NULL instead of possibly feeding a NULL to memset() in
reftable_calloc(). This issue was noted by GCC 12's -fanalyzer:
reftable/publicbasics.c: In function ‘reftable_calloc’:
reftable/publicbasics.c:43:9: error: use of possibly-NULL ‘p’ where non-null expected [CWE-690] [-Werror=analyzer-possible-null-argument]
43 | memset(p, 0, sz);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[...]
This bug has been with us ever since this code was added in
ef8a6c62687 (reftable: utility functions, 2021-10-07).
