dm table: don't copy from a NULL pointer in realloc_argv() For the first call to realloc_argv() in dm_split_args(), old_argv is NULL and size is zero. Then memcpy is called, with the NULL old_argv as the source argument and a zero size argument. AFAIK, this is undefined behavior and generates the following warning when compiled with UBSAN on ppc64le: In file included from ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/paca.h:19, from ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/current.h:16, from ./include/linux/sched.h:12, from ./include/linux/kthread.h:6, from drivers/md/dm-core.h:12, from drivers/md/dm-table.c:8: In function 'memcpy', inlined from 'realloc_argv' at drivers/md/dm-table.c:565:3, inlined from 'dm_split_args' at drivers/md/dm-table.c:588:9: ./include/linux/string.h:345:9: error: argument 2 null where non-null expected [-Werror=nonnull] return __builtin_memcpy(p, q, size); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ drivers/md/dm-table.c: In function 'dm_split_args': ./include/linux/string.h:345:9: note: in a call to built-in function '__builtin_memcpy' Signed-off-by: Jerome Marchand <jmarchan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
