commit 2c0ad3f0cc04dec489552a21b80cd6d708bea96d upstream. Check return value of kstrdup_const() in iio_buffer_wrap_attr(), or it will cause null-ptr-deref in kernfs_name_hash() when calling device_add() as follows: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 RIP: 0010:strlen+0x0/0x20 Call Trace: kernfs_name_hash+0x22/0x110 kernfs_find_ns+0x11d/0x390 kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x3b/0xb0 remove_files.isra.1+0x7b/0x190 internal_create_group+0x7f1/0xbb0 internal_create_groups+0xa3/0x150 device_add+0x8f0/0x2020 cdev_device_add+0xc3/0x160 __iio_device_register+0x1427/0x1b40 [industrialio] __devm_iio_device_register+0x22/0x80 [industrialio] adjd_s311_probe+0x195/0x200 [adjd_s311] i2c_device_probe+0xa07/0xbb0 Reported-by: Hulk Robot <hulkci@huawei.com> Fixes: 15097c7a1adc ("iio: buffer: wrap all buffer attributes into iio_dev_attr") Signed-off-by: Yang Yingliang <yangyingliang@huawei.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211013040438.1689277-1-yangyingliang@huawei.com Cc: <Stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
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.
