[PATCH] usb: musb: gadget: fix possible NULL pointer dereference

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

 



txstate() assumes that if the request buffer is mapped, a DMA channel
is allocated. There is a case here where the DMA channel is released
and then shortly thereafter (in general PIO code) the request buffer
is unmapped. However, in this case unmap_dma_buffer() silently fails
because the DMA channel is already gone. Thus, the next time txstate()
is called, there is a NULL pointer exception because the buffer is
mapped but no DMA channel is allocated.

This patch adds an extra call unmap_dma_buffer() before releasing the
channel.
