[ Upstream commit 9b03b713082a31a5b90e0a893c72aa620e255c26 ] If null_add_dev() fails then null_del_dev() is called with a NULL argument. Make null_del_dev() handle this scenario correctly. This patch fixes the following KASAN complaint: null-ptr-deref in null_del_dev+0x28/0x280 [null_blk] Read of size 8 at addr 0000000000000000 by task find/1062 Call Trace: dump_stack+0xa5/0xe6 __kasan_report.cold+0x65/0x99 kasan_report+0x16/0x20 __asan_load8+0x58/0x90 null_del_dev+0x28/0x280 [null_blk] nullb_group_drop_item+0x7e/0xa0 [null_blk] client_drop_item+0x53/0x80 [configfs] configfs_rmdir+0x395/0x4e0 [configfs] vfs_rmdir+0xb6/0x220 do_rmdir+0x238/0x2c0 __x64_sys_unlinkat+0x75/0x90 do_syscall_64+0x6f/0x2f0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org> Reviewed-by: Chaitanya Kulkarni <chaitanya.kulkarni@wdc.com> Cc: Johannes Thumshirn <jth@kernel.org> Cc: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.com> Cc: Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
