[PATCH 3.12 008/113] can: c_can_pci: fix null-pointer-deref in c_can_start() - set device pointer

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

 



From: Einar Jón <tolvupostur@xxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit c97c52be78b8463ac5407f1cf1f22f8f6cf93a37 upstream.

The priv->device pointer for c_can_pci is never set, but it is used
without a NULL check in c_can_start(). Setting it in c_can_pci_probe()
like c_can_plat_probe() prevents c_can_pci.ko from crashing, with and
without CONFIG_PM.

This might also cause the pm_runtime_*() functions in c_can.c to
actually be executed for c_can_pci devices - they are the only other
place where priv->device is used, but they all contain a null check.
