Re: [PATCH] ALSA: sound/isa/gus: check the return value of kstrdup()

From: Xiaoke Wang
Date: Mon Dec 13 2021 - 03:07:23 EST


Note: Compare with the last email, this one is using my full name.
kstrdup() returns NULL when some internal memory errors happen, it is
better to check the return value of it. Otherwise, we may not to be able
to catch some memory errors in time.
