To indicate an error, debugfs_create_file can return an ERR_PTR for !CONFIG_DEBUG_FS and NULL otherwise, so in case the result is dereferenced there should be a previous IS_ERR and a NULL check. The Coccinelle semantic patch used to find the issue is as follows: @@ expression e; identifier f; @@ * e = debugfs_create_file(...); ... when != e == NULL e->f Signed-off-by: Amitoj Kaur Chawla <amitoj1606@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c index 8a1752f..9ff70a7 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c @@ -1198,6 +1198,8 @@ static int amdgpu_ttm_debugfs_init(struct amdgpu_device *adev) adev, &amdgpu_ttm_vram_fops); if (IS_ERR(ent)) return PTR_ERR(ent); + if (!ent) + return -ENOMEM; i_size_write(ent->d_inode, adev->mc.mc_vram_size); adev->mman.vram = ent; @@ -1205,6 +1207,8 @@ static int amdgpu_ttm_debugfs_init(struct amdgpu_device *adev) adev, &amdgpu_ttm_gtt_fops); if (IS_ERR(ent)) return PTR_ERR(ent); + if (!ent) + return -ENOMEM; i_size_write(ent->d_inode, adev->mc.gtt_size); adev->mman.gtt = ent; -- 1.9.1 _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
