[PATCH] scsi_dh: check queuedata pointer before proceeding further

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

 



This patch validates sdev pointer in scsi_dh_activate before proceeding further.

Without this check we might see the panic as below. I have seen this
panic multiple times..
