6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dominique Martinet <asmadeus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 13ade4ac5c28e8a014fa85278f5a4270b215f906 ] handle_rerror can dereference the pages pointer, but it is not necessarily set for small payloads. In practice these should be filtered out by the size check, but might as well double-check explicitly. This fixes the following scan-build warnings: net/9p/trans_virtio.c:401:24: warning: Dereference of null pointer [core.NullDereference] memcpy_from_page(to, *pages++, offs, n); ^~~~~~~~ net/9p/trans_virtio.c:406:23: warning: Dereference of null pointer (loaded from variable 'pages') [core.NullDereference] memcpy_from_page(to, *pages, offs, size); ^~~~~~ Reviewed-by: Simon Horman <simon.horman@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Dominique Martinet <asmadeus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- net/9p/trans_virtio.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/net/9p/trans_virtio.c b/net/9p/trans_virtio.c index 3f3eb03cda7d6..6a4a29a2703de 100644 --- a/net/9p/trans_virtio.c +++ b/net/9p/trans_virtio.c @@ -385,7 +385,7 @@ static void handle_rerror(struct p9_req_t *req, int in_hdr_len, void *to = req->rc.sdata + in_hdr_len; // Fits entirely into the static data?
