[PATCH 0/2] ALSA: dice: fix a fatal bug when no sound card is registered

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

This patchset is for Linux 4.6-rc2.

ALSA dice driver causes kernel NULL pointer dereference in a case that
no sound card instance is registered and unit is going to be removed.
This is observed when dice-based units are connected to Linux system and
disconnected within 2 seconds, thus it's rare.

Additionally, even if the bug is fixed, the driver dumps warnings for
most dice-based models which supports a pair of isochronous streams.
This can occur regardless of the former bug. Users can see this for
unsupported dice-based models.

This patchset fixes these bugs.

    initialized
