[PATCH v1 4/6] lib/talloc: Fix TALLOC_ABORT

Geoff Levand geoff at infradead.org
Wed Aug 8 10:01:10 AEST 2018


The current TALLOC_ABORT macro had a number of problems.
Failures were not going to the pb log, but only to stderr.
If the object passed in was not a talloc object the printing
of an object name would be printing random data.
The use of a macro obscured the code.

To clean this up, remove all reference to TALLOC_ABORT and
put the logging and abort calls directly into talloc_chunk_from_ptr.
