[PATCH 4.4 10/56] tipc: add NULL pointer check before calling kfree_rcu

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

[ Upstream commit 42dec1dbe38239cf91cc1f4df7830c66276ced37 ]

Unlike kfree(p), kfree_rcu(p, rcu) won't do NULL pointer check. When
tipc_nametbl_remove_publ returns NULL, the panic below happens:

   BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000068
