Subject: [OSS-Tools] [PATCH dt-utils 11/14] common: xstrdup: don't panic on xstrdup(NULL)
Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2022 18:42:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221014164204.3812506-12-m.felsch@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221014164204.3812506-1-m.felsch@pengutronix.de>

This ports the following barebox commit

| commit bf6ddd6c4dccf01c4a27761c5f73918db578f8d6
| Author: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>

|     xstrdup: don't panic on xstrdup(NULL)
|
|     Instead return just NULL. This matches the behaviour of kstrdup in the
|     kernel and xstrdup in busybox.
|
|     This fixes a panic with CONFIG_CMD_MAGICVAR=y and
|     CONFIG_CMD_MAGICVAR_HELP unset in magicvar_add() where description is
|     always NULL.

It is required to have the same logic for the code shared with barebox.
