[PATCH 4.16 103/196] RDMA/mlx5: Protect from NULL pointer derefence

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

 



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

------------------

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4289861d88d6c7b5e4c8cc7fe2ad6cdf0cdfc366 upstream.

The mlx5_ib_alloc_implicit_mr() can fail to acquire pages
and the returned mr pointer won't be valid. Ensure that it
is not error prior to access.
