Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2015 10:50:50 -0600 From: Mathieu Poirier <mathieu.poirier@...aro.org> To: linux-arm-kernel@...ts.infradead.org Cc: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, tyler.baker@...aro.org, khilman@...nel.org Subject: [PATCH] coresight: checking for NULL string in coresight_name_match() Connection child names associated to ports can sometimes be NULL, which is the case when booting a system on QEMU or when the Coresight power domain isn't switched on. This patch is adding a check to make sure a NULL string isn't fed to strcmp(), something that avoid crashing the system.
