[v4,05/25] reftable/basics: handle allocation failures in `parse_names()`

Commit Message

Patrick Steinhardt Oct. 1, 2024, 9:41 a.m. UTC

Handle allocation failures in `parse_names()` by returning `NULL` in
case any allocation fails. While at it, refactor the function to return
the array directly instead of assigning it to an out-pointer.
