[PATCH] Bluetooth: 6LoWPAN: Add missing check for skb_clone
Posted by Jiasheng Jiang 2 years, 11 months ago
Add the check for the return value of skb_clone since it may return NULL
pointer and cause NULL pointer dereference in send_pkt.

Fixes: 18722c247023 ("Bluetooth: Enable 6LoWPAN support for BT LE devices")

Further down in this loop an error is handled as follows,
I wonder if that pattern is appropriate here too.

			ret = send_pkt(pentry->chan, local_skb, netdev);
			if (ret < 0)
				err = ret;
