[PATCH 6.12 094/172] net/mlx5: DR, prevent potential error pointer dereference

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

 



6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 11776cff0b563c8b8a4fa76cab620bfb633a8cb8 ]

The dr_domain_add_vport_cap() function generally returns NULL on error
but sometimes we want it to return ERR_PTR(-EBUSY) so the caller can
retry.  The problem here is that "ret" can be either -EBUSY or -ENOMEM
and if it's and -ENOMEM then the error pointer is propogated back and
eventually dereferenced in dr_ste_v0_build_src_gvmi_qpn_tag().
