Thread: https://gitlist.dev/t/35194 ## Ramsay Jones, 2013-10-24 20:17 Subject: [PATCH] http.c: Spell the null pointer as NULL Message-ID: <5269804F.2080800@ramsay1.demon.co.uk> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/5269804F.2080800%40ramsay1.demon.co.uk ``` Commit 1bbcc224 ("http: refactor options to http_get_*", 28-09-2013) changed the type of final 'options' argument of the http_get_file() function from an int to an 'struct http_get_options' pointer. However, it neglected to update the (single) call site. Since this call was passing '0' to that argument, it was (correctly) being interpreted as a null pointer. Change to argument to NULL. Noticed by sparse.
