After the loop in hns_roce_v1_mr_free_work_fn function, it is possible that the local variable named hr_qp is NULL, the operation "hr_qp->qpn" will result in the exception. As a result, we add return statement when checking error. This patch fixes the smatch error as below: drivers/infiniband/hw/hns/hns_roce_hw_v1.c:1009 hns_roce_v1_mr_free_work_fn() error: we previously assumed 'hr_qp' could be null Signed-off-by: Wei Hu (Xavier) <xavier.huwei@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Lijun Ou <oulijun@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Shaobo Xu <xushaobo2@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/infiniband/hw/hns/hns_roce_hw_v1.c | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/infiniband/hw/hns/hns_roce_hw_v1.c b/drivers/infiniband/hw/hns/hns_roce_hw_v1.c index 3496f39..c08822b 100644 --- a/drivers/infiniband/hw/hns/hns_roce_hw_v1.c +++ b/drivers/infiniband/hw/hns/hns_roce_hw_v1.c @@ -1004,6 +1004,11 @@ static void hns_roce_v1_mr_free_work_fn(struct work_struct *work) } } + if (!ne) { + dev_err(dev, "Reseved loop qp is absent!\n"); + goto free_work; + } + do { ret = hns_roce_v1_poll_cq(&mr_free_cq->ib_cq, ne, wc); if (ret < 0) { -- 1.9.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
