I think it's ok just to use NULL. An OOM is pretty self-explanatory.
Most if not all invocations that I recall seeing simply use NULL.

All:
I assume that anytime a "JNI" procedure in the native code experiences an OOM
(Out Of Memory) error, then it should throw an exception, by executing:
JNU_ThrowOutOfMemoryError(env, NULL);
src/share/native/sun/security/jgss/wrapper/GSSLibStub.c
src/share/native/sun/security/jgss/wrapper/NativeUtil.c
src/share/native/sun/security/smartcardio/pcsc.c
src/solaris/native/com/sun/security/auth/module/Solaris.c
src/solaris/native/com/sun/security/auth/module/Unix.c
If so, what messages, if any, should I pass as their second argument, instead
of NULL?
Thanks!

John,
Ideas?
It's a JNI so just throw OOM.

Although I agree that the name: "GSS_C_NO_CHANNEL_BINDINGS" is misleading,
I can't identify anything else that seems more appropriate.
The header file:
/jdk8-tl/jdk/src/share/native/sun/security/jgss/wrapper/gssapi.h defines
GSS_C_NO_CHANNEL_BINDINGS as follows:
#define GSS_C_NO_CHANNEL_BINDINGS ((gss_channel_bindings_t) 0)
The symbol matches the prototype of the function:
*/*
* Utility routine which creates a gss_channel_bindings_t structure
* using the specified org.ietf.jgss.ChannelBinding object.
*/
gss_channel_bindings_t getGSSCB(JNIEnv *env, jobject jcb) {
gss_channel_bindings_t cb;
jobject jinetAddr;
jbyteArray value;
if (jcb == NULL) {
return GSS_C_NO_CHANNEL_BINDINGS;
}
cb = malloc(sizeof(struct gss_channel_bindings_struct));
if(cb == NULL)
return GSS_C_NO_CHANNEL_BINDINGS;*
There doesn't appear to be anything in our set of options that is more
suggestive of a memory allocation failure and the symbol:
GSS_C_NO_CHANNEL_BINDINGS seems to be logically correct.
Ideas?

John,
Not sure GSS_C_NO_CHANNEL_BINDINGS; is correct return value for this case.
I'm second to Valerie - it's better to throw OOM

Greetings:
I modified the native code to eliminate potential memory loss and crashes by
checking the return values of malloc() and realloc() calls.
The webrev image of these changes is visible at:

Thanks!
