Hi maintainers,

I found a NPD(Null Pointer Dereference) in sd_zbc_release_disk function.

There are two definitions of sd_zbc_release_disk:

#ifdef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED
void sd_zbc_release_disk(struct scsi_disk *sdkp);
#else /* CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED */
static inline void sd_zbc_release_disk(struct scsi_disk *sdkp) {}
#endif

When CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED=y, the function implementation is as follows:

void sd_zbc_release_disk(struct scsi_disk *sdkp)
{
    if (sd_is_zoned(sdkp))
        sd_zbc_clear_zone_info(sdkp);
}

static inline int sd_is_zoned(struct scsi_disk *sdkp)
{
    return sdkp->zoned == 1 || sdkp->device->type == TYPE_ZBC;
}

In drivers/scsi/sd.c, sd_probe() allocates sdkp with kzalloc(). If
errors occurred before the assignment "sdkp->device", after the
allocation, it will triggers a NPD in sd_is_zoned.

I am not familiar with kernel configuration. Does anyone have a
suggestion to fix this NPD?

I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Can you try this patch:

Subject: [PATCH] scsi: sd_zbc: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference

If sd_probe() sees an error before sdkp->device is initialized,
sd_zbc_release_disk() is called, which causes a NULL pointer dereference
when sd_is_zoned() is called. Avoid this by turning
sd_zbc_release_disk() into a nop if sdkp->device is NULL.
