kcalloc() is called to allocate memory for m->m_info, and if it fails, ceph_mdsmap_destroy() behind the label out_err will be called: ceph_mdsmap_destroy(m); In ceph_mdsmap_destroy(), m->m_info is dereferenced through: kfree(m->m_info[i].export_targets); To fix this possible null-pointer dereference, check m->m_info before the for loop to free m->m_info[i].export_targets.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
