[PATCH v2 3/4] ata: libata-transport: fix error handling in ata_tlink_add()

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

 



In ata_tlink_add(), the return value of transport_add_device() is not
checked. As a result, another error after that function call leads to
a kernel crash (null-ptr-deref) because transport_remove_device() is
called to remove a device that was not added.

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000000d0

Fix this by checking and handling return value of transport_add_device()
in ata_tlink_add().
