[PATCH][next] scsi: hpsa: fix an uninitialized read and dereference of pointer dev

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

 



From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently the check for a lockup_detected failure exits via the
label return_reset_status that reads and dereferences an uninitialized
pointer dev.  Fix this by ensuring dev is inintialized to null.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized pointer read")
Fixes: 14991a5bade5 ("scsi: hpsa: correct device resets")
