Subject: [glibc/siddhesh/gai-cleanup2] gethosts: Return EAI_MEMORY on allocation failure
Date: Tue,  8 Mar 2022 14:10:24 +0000 (GMT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220308141024.9EF6F385C41F@sourceware.org> (raw)

https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=glibc.git;h=b57bf811e56ede85a5c073331ca52380278bd10c

commit b57bf811e56ede85a5c073331ca52380278bd10c
Author: Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh@sourceware.org>
Date:   Wed Mar 2 11:45:29 2022 +0530

    gethosts: Return EAI_MEMORY on allocation failure
    
    All other cases of failures due to lack of memory return EAI_MEMORY, so
    it seems wrong to return EAI_SYSTEM here.  The only reason
    convert_hostent_to_gaih_addrtuple could fail is on calloc failure.
