You're doing: rdata = lpfc_rport_data_from_scsi_device(cmnd->device); pnode = rdata->pnode; if (!pnode || !NLP_CHK_NODE_ACT(pnode)) return FAILED; So if rdata is already NULL, the pnode = rdata->pnode line will blow up. -- Johannes Thumshirn Storage jthumshirn@xxxxxxx +49 911 74053 689 SUSE LINUX GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) Key fingerprint = EC38 9CAB C2C4 F25D 8600 D0D0 0393 969D 2D76 0850 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
