[PATCH net] octeontx2-pf: Fix devm_kcalloc() error checking
From: Dan Carpenter <hidden>
Date: 2025-11-01 13:26:48
Also in:
bpf, kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem:
marvell octeontx2 physical function driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers:
Sunil Goutham, Geetha sowjanya, Ratheesh Kannoth, Subbaraya Sundeep, Bharat Bhushan, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds
The devm_kcalloc() function never return error pointers, it returns NULL
on failure. Also delete the netdev_err() printk. These allocation
functions already have debug output built-in some the extra error message
is not required.
Fixes: efabce290151 ("octeontx2-pf: AF_XDP zero copy receive support")
