[PATCH] md: fix potential NULL pointer dereference in md_super_write

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The bio_alloc_bioset() call in md_super_write() could fail under memory
pressure and return NULL. Add a check to handle this case gracefully by
returning early, preventing a potential NULL pointer dereference.
