[PATCH 2/2] pktcdvd: Fix a recently introduced NULL pointer dereference

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

 



Call bdev_get_queue(bdev) after bdev->bd_disk has been initialized
instead of just before that pointer has been initialized. This patch
avoids that the following command

pktsetup 1 /dev/sr0

triggers the following kernel crash:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000548
