Function pci_alloc_consistent() returns a NULL pointer if there is no enough memory. In function beiscsi_create_eqs() defined in file drivers/scsi/be2iscsi/be_main.c, function pci_alloc_consistent() is called and its return value is checked against NULL (at line 3052). If the return value is NULL, the control flow will jump to label "create_cq_error", frees allocated memory and returns variable ret. Because after the first execution of the loop the value of ret must be 0 (see the check statement of ret at line 3067), the return value will be 0 (indicates success) if pci_alloc_consistent() fails during the second or after repeats of the loop body. In this case, the freed memory may be used or freed again in the callers of beiscsi_create_eqs(). I think it is better to assign "-ENOMEM" when the call pci_alloc_consistent() fails. Codes and comments related to this bug are summarised as follows.
