From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> The pointer hwmgr is dereferenced when initializing pointer adev however it is a little later hwmgr is null checked, implying it could potentially be null hence the assignment of adev may cause a null pointer dereference. Fix this by moving the assignment after the null check. Note that I did think of removing adev as it is only used once, however, hwmgr->adev is a void * pointer, so using adev avoids some ugly casting so it makes sense to still use it. Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference before null check") Fixes: 59156faf810e ("drm/amd/pp: Remove the cgs wrapper for notify smu version on APU") Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/powerplay/smumgr/smu8_smumgr.c | 5 ++--- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/powerplay/smumgr/smu8_smumgr.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/powerplay/smumgr/smu8_smumgr.c index 8189fe402c6d..12815b3830e4 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/powerplay/smumgr/smu8_smumgr.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/powerplay/smumgr/smu8_smumgr.c @@ -722,13 +722,11 @@ static int smu8_request_smu_load_fw(struct pp_hwmgr *hwmgr) static int smu8_start_smu(struct pp_hwmgr *hwmgr) { - struct amdgpu_device *adev = hwmgr->adev; - + struct amdgpu_device *adev; uint32_t index = SMN_MP1_SRAM_START_ADDR + SMU8_FIRMWARE_HEADER_LOCATION + offsetof(struct SMU8_Firmware_Header, Version); - if (hwmgr == NULL || hwmgr->device == NULL) return -EINVAL; @@ -738,6 +736,7 @@ static int smu8_start_smu(struct pp_hwmgr *hwmgr) ((hwmgr->smu_version >> 16) & 0xFF), ((hwmgr->smu_version >> 8) & 0xFF), (hwmgr->smu_version & 0xFF)); + adev = hwmgr->adev; adev->pm.fw_version = hwmgr->smu_version >> 8; return smu8_request_smu_load_fw(hwmgr); -- 2.20.1
