From e2c1b82330bcd77ffeb6dc5a18a4c6ce8d3e1fd3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pan Bian Date: Thu, 1 Dec 2016 10:04:43 +0800 Subject: crypto: algif_skcipher - set error code when kcalloc fails Fix bug https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=188521. In function skcipher_recvmsg_async(), variable err takes the return value, and its value should be negative on failures. Because variable err may be reassigned and checked before calling kcalloc(), its value may be 0 (indicates no error) even if kcalloc() fails. This patch fixes the bug by explicitly assigning -ENOMEM to err when kcalloc() returns a NULL pointer.
