[PATCH 2/3] watchdog: imgpdc: Fix probe NULL pointer dereference

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

 



From: James Hogan <james.hogan@xxxxxxxxxx>

The IMG PDC watchdog probe function calls pdc_wdt_stop() prior to
watchdog_set_drvdata(), causing a NULL pointer dereference when
pdc_wdt_stop() retrieves the struct pdc_wdt_dev pointer using
watchdog_get_drvdata() and reads the register base address through it.

Fix by moving the watchdog_set_drvdata() call earlier, to where various
other pdc_wdt->wdt_dev fields are initialised.
