[PATCH 08/11] firmware: efi: add NULL pointer checks in efivars api functions

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

 



From: Arend van Spriel <arend.vanspriel@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Since commit:

   ce2e6db554fa ("brcmfmac: Add support for getting nvram contents from
                 EFI variables")

we have a device driver accessing the efivars API. Several functions in
the efivars API assume __efivars is set, i.e., that they will be accessed
only after efivars_register() has been called. However, the following NULL
pointer access was reported calling efivar_entry_size() from the brcmfmac
device driver.

  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000008

Disassembly showed that the local static variable __efivars is NULL,
which is not entirely unexpected given that it is a non-EFI platform.
So add a NULL pointer check to efivar_entry_size(), and to related
functions while at it. In efivars_register() a couple of sanity checks
are added as well.
