This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ice: fix invalid check for empty list in ice_sched_assoc_vsi_to_agg() to the 6.1-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: ice-fix-invalid-check-for-empty-list-in-ice_sched_as.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d6f8c9ed0b1b934796d77caf250416b7cbe786d5 Author: Jakob Koschel <jkl820.git@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Mar 20 13:48:15 2023 +0100 ice: fix invalid check for empty list in ice_sched_assoc_vsi_to_agg() [ Upstream commit e9a1cc2e4c4ee7c7e60fb26345618c2522a2a10f ] The code implicitly assumes that the list iterator finds a correct handle. If 'vsi_handle' is not found the 'old_agg_vsi_info' was pointing to an bogus memory location. For safety a separate list iterator variable should be used to make the != NULL check on 'old_agg_vsi_info' correct under any circumstances. Additionally Linus proposed to avoid any use of the list iterator variable after the loop, in the attempt to move the list iterator variable declaration into the macro to avoid any potential misuse after the loop. Using it in a pointer comparison after the loop is undefined behavior and should be omitted if possible [1].
