Static analysis tools may detect a possible null pointer dereference at line 760 (the memcpy call) of xen/common/domain.c. This ASSERT helps them in detecting that such a condition is not possible and also provides a basic sanity check. Signed-off-by: Nicola Vetrini <nicola.vetrini@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- The check may be later improved by proper error checking instead of relying on the semantics explained here: https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/61f04d4b-34d9-4fd1-a989-56b042b4f3d8@xxxxxxxxxx/ This addresses the caution reported by ECLAIR for MISRA C:2012 D4.11 --- xen/common/domain.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/xen/common/domain.c b/xen/common/domain.c index 8f9ab01c0cb7..9378c0417645 100644 --- a/xen/common/domain.c +++ b/xen/common/domain.c @@ -700,6 +700,8 @@ struct domain *domain_create(domid_t domid, if ( !is_idle_domain(d) ) { + ASSERT(config); + watchdog_domain_init(d); init_status |= INIT_watchdog; -- 2.34.1
