Subject: [9front] [patch] skelfs: remove useless code
Date: Fri, 11 Nov 2022 18:17:45 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2110680159.4595621.1668187065209@comcenter.netcologne.de> (raw)

Hello,
  
if I read the code correctly emalloc9p already checks for failed allocations and zeroes the memory, so the following code is redundant.

Greetings,
Arne
