The patch ASoC: Intel: avoid Oops if DMA setup fails has been applied to the asoc tree at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git for-5.2 All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From 0efa3334d65b7f421ba12382dfa58f6ff5bf83c4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ross Zwisler <zwisler@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2019 12:25:17 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: Intel: avoid Oops if DMA setup fails Currently in sst_dsp_new() if we get an error return from sst_dma_new() we just print an error message and then still complete the function successfully. This means that we are trying to run without sst->dma properly set up, which will result in NULL pointer dereference when sst->dma is later used. This was happening for me in sst_dsp_dma_get_channel(): struct sst_dma *dma = dsp->dma; ... dma->ch = dma_request_channel(mask, dma_chan_filter, dsp); This resulted in: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000018 IP: sst_dsp_dma_get_channel+0x4f/0x125 [snd_soc_sst_firmware] Fix this by adding proper error handling for the case where we fail to set up DMA. This change only affects Haswell and Broadwell systems. Baytrail systems explicilty opt-out of DMA via sst->pdata->resindex_dma_base being set to -1.
