From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 90b5d4fe0b3ba7f589c6723c6bfb559d9e83956a upstream. On a bare-metal Power8 system that doesn't have an "ibm,power-rng", a malicious QEMU and guest that ignore the absence of the KVM_CAP_PPC_HWRNG flag, and calls H_RANDOM anyway, will dereference a NULL pointer. In practice all Power8 machines have an "ibm,power-rng", but let's not rely on that, add a NULL check and early return in powernv_get_random_real_mode(). Fixes: e928e9cb3601 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Add fast real-mode H_RANDOM implementation.") Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # v4.1+ Signed-off-by: Jason A.
