Hello Harsh Jain,
This is a semi-automatic email about new static checker warnings.
The patch 2debd3325e55: "crypto: chcr - Add AEAD algos." from Nov 29,
2016, leads to the following Smatch complaint:
drivers/crypto/chelsio/chcr_algo.c:2460 chcr_aead_op()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'ctx' (see line 2457)
drivers/crypto/chelsio/chcr_algo.c:2460 chcr_aead_op()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'ctx->dev' (see line 2457)
drivers/crypto/chelsio/chcr_algo.c
2456 struct chcr_context *ctx = crypto_aead_ctx(tfm);
2457 struct uld_ctx *u_ctx = ULD_CTX(ctx);
^^^^^^^^^^^^
Derefences both.
2458 struct sk_buff *skb;
2459
2460 if (ctx && !ctx->dev) {
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Check is too late.
2461 pr_err("chcr : %s : No crypto device.\n", __func__);
2462 return -ENXIO;
regards,
dan carpenter
