[ Upstream commit 24a6d2dd263bc910de018c78d1148b3e33b94512 ] Fix a possible NULL pointer dereference in nic_remove routine removing the nicpf module if nic_probe fails. The issue can be triggered with the following reproducer: $rmmod nicvf $rmmod nicpf [ 521.412008] Unable to handle kernel access to user memory outside uaccess routines at virtual address 0000000000000014 [ 521.422777] Mem abort info: [ 521.425561] ESR = 0x96000004 [ 521.428624] Exception class = DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits [ 521.434535] SET = 0, FnV = 0 [ 521.437579] EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 [ 521.440730] Data abort info: [ 521.443603] ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000004 [ 521.447431] CM = 0, WnR = 0 [ 521.450417] user pgtable: 4k pages, 48-bit VAs, pgdp = 0000000072a3da42 [ 521.457022] [0000000000000014] pgd=0000000000000000 [ 521.461916] Internal error: Oops: 96000004 [#1] SMP [ 521.511801] Hardware name: GIGABYTE H270-T70/MT70-HD0, BIOS T49 02/02/2018 [ 521.518664] pstate: 80400005 (Nzcv daif +PAN -UAO) [ 521.523451] pc : nic_remove+0x24/0x88 [nicpf] [ 521.527808] lr : pci_device_remove+0x48/0xd8 [ 521.532066] sp : ffff000013433cc0 [ 521.535370] x29: ffff000013433cc0 x28: ffff810f6ac50000 [ 521.540672] x27: 0000000000000000 x26: 0000000000000000 [ 521.545974] x25: 0000000056000000 x24: 0000000000000015 [ 521.551274] x23: ffff8007ff89a110 x22: ffff000001667070 [ 521.556576] x21: ffff8007ffb170b0 x20: ffff8007ffb17000 [ 521.561877] x19: 0000000000000000 x18: 0000000000000025 [ 521.567178] x17: 0000000000000000 x16: 000000000000010ffc33ff98 x8 : 0000000000000000 [ 521.593683] x7 : 0000000000000000 x6 : 0000000000000001 [ 521.598983] x5 : 0000000000000002 x4 : 0000000000000003 [ 521.604284] x3 : ffff8007ffb17184 x2 : ffff8007ffb17184 [ 521.609585] x1 : ffff000001662118 x0 : ffff000008557be0 [ 521.614887] Process rmmod (pid: 1897, stack limit = 0x00000000859535c3) [ 521.621490] Call trace: [ 521.623928] nic_remove+0x24/0x88 [nicpf] [ 521.627927] pci_device_remove+0x48/0xd8 [ 521.631847] device_release_driver_internal+0x1b0/0x248 [ 521.637062] driver_detach+0x50/0xc0 [ 521.640628] bus_remove_driver+0x60/0x100 [ 521.644627] driver_unregister+0x34/0x60 [ 521.648538] pci_unregister_driver+0x24/0xd8 [ 521.652798] nic_cleanup_module+0x14/0x111c [nicpf] [ 521.657672] __arm64_sys_delete_module+0x150/0x218 [ 521.662460] el0_svc_handler+0x94/0x110 [ 521.666287] el0_svc+0x8/0xc [ 521.669160] Code: aa1e03e0 9102c295 d503201f f9404eb3 (b9401660) Fixes: 4863dea3fab0 ("net: Adding support for Cavium ThunderX network controller") Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo.bianconi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
