Hello, I am testing a code checker (http://repo.or.cz/w/smatch.git) and it found an issue in ide-io.c The case where rq->rq_disk is null and blk_special_request(rq) returns zero on line 356 would cause an oops on line 367. drivers/ide/ide-io.c 356 } else if (!rq->rq_disk && blk_special_request(rq)) 357 /* 358 * TODO: Once all ULDs have been modified to 359 * check for specific op codes rather than 360 * blindly accepting any special request, the 361 * check for ->rq_disk above may be replaced 362 * by a more suitable mechanism or even 363 * dropped entirely. 364 */ 365 return ide_special_rq(drive, rq); 366 367 drv = *(struct ide_driver **)rq->rq_disk->private_data; regards, dan carpenter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
