Subject: [PATCH] kern/parser: Fix resource leak if argc == 0
b1bcb2
b1bcb2
After processing the command-line yet arriving at the point where we are
b1bcb2
setting argv, we are allocating memory, even if argc == 0, which makes
b1bcb2
no sense since we never put anything into the allocated argv.
b1bcb2
b1bcb2
The solution is to simply return that we've successfully processed the
b1bcb2
arguments but that argc == 0, and also ensure that argv is NULL when
b1bcb2
we're not allocating anything in it.
b1bcb2
b1bcb2
There are only 2 callers of this function, and both are handling a zero
b1bcb2
value in argc assuming nothing is allocated in argv.
