It's not clear if this failure was an injected failure, startup\nrace or otherwise - but given the documentation of this function states\nit can return null ... it seems valid to null check before passing into\nother APIs especially when a trace is reported directly at this point.\n\nI don't presently have a way to replicate or reproduce the error either,\nbut this patch itself has passed our ci tests (which isn't too\nunexpected as the change is quite minimal otherwise).\n\n\n src/libcamera/device_enumerator_udev.cpp | 6 ++++++\n 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+)",
