This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled genirq/ipi: Fix NULL pointer deref in irq_data_get_affinity_mask() to the 6.2-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: genirq-ipi-fix-null-pointer-deref-in-irq_data_get_af.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.2 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 62bbbf9d3ddaaf22a38d243e3178ded087e87a93 Author: Sergey Shtylyov <s.shtylyov@xxxxxx> Date: Wed Aug 17 23:00:45 2022 +0300 genirq/ipi: Fix NULL pointer deref in irq_data_get_affinity_mask() [ Upstream commit feabecaff5902f896531dde90646ca5dfa9d4f7d ] If ipi_send_{mask|single}() is called with an invalid interrupt number, all the local variables there will be NULL. ipi_send_verify() which is invoked from these functions does verify its 'data' parameter, resulting in a kernel oops in irq_data_get_affinity_mask() as the passed NULL pointer gets dereferenced. Add a missing NULL pointer check in ipi_send_verify()... Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the SVACE static analysis tool.
