[PATCH 4.18 109/235] vmbus: dont return values for uninitalized channels

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

 



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

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

From: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 6712cc9c22117a8af9f3df272b4a44fd2e4201cd upstream.

For unsupported device types, the vmbus channel ringbuffer is never
initialized, and therefore reading the sysfs files will return garbage
or cause a kernel OOPS.

Fixes: c2e5df616e1a ("vmbus: add per-channel sysfs info")
