3.16.83-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@xxxxxxxx> commit 7690e25302dc7d0cd42b349e746fe44b44a94f2b upstream. One can crash dm-flakey by specifying more feature arguments than the number of features supplied. Checking for null in arg_name avoids this. dmsetup create flakey-test --table "0 66076080 flakey /dev/sdb9 0 0 180 2 drop_writes" Signed-off-by: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/md/dm-flakey.c | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) --- a/drivers/md/dm-flakey.c +++ b/drivers/md/dm-flakey.c @@ -69,6 +69,11 @@ static int parse_features(struct dm_arg_ arg_name = dm_shift_arg(as); argc--; + if (!arg_name) { + ti->error = "Insufficient feature arguments"; + return -EINVAL; + } + /* * drop_writes */
