Re: [PATCH bpf-next] selftests/bpf: Add malloc failure checks in bpf_iter

[Kui-Feng Lee]

Thank you for the patches.

I found you have two patches in this set.
You can generate both patch at once with git format-patch.
format-patch will give each patch a number in their order.
For example, the subject of this message will be

  [PATCH bpf-next 2/2] selftest/bpf: Add malloc ....

And, you put both patches in the same directory.  And sent them at once
by giving the path of the directory. For example,

  git send-email --to=bpf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx path/to/the/directory/

These patches will be sent in a thread instead of two independent
messages.

You can just do "goto out;" here.

Same here, even it will call free(val), free(val) will do nothing when
val is NULL.
