Message-ID: <20150514100944.GA19879@mwanda> (raw)
Hello Dan Streetman,
This is a semi-automatic email about new static checker warnings.
The patch ed70b479c2c0: "crypto: nx - add hardware 842 crypto comp
alg" from May 7, 2015, leads to the following Smatch complaint:
drivers/crypto/nx/nx-842-crypto.c:301 nx842_crypto_compress()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'tfm' (see line 292)
drivers/crypto/nx/nx-842-crypto.c
288 static int nx842_crypto_compress(struct crypto_tfm *tfm,
289 const u8 *src, unsigned int slen,
290 u8 *dst, unsigned int *dlen)
291 {
292 struct nx842_crypto_ctx *ctx = crypto_tfm_ctx(tfm);
^^^
Dereference.
293 struct nx842_crypto_header *hdr = &ctx->header;
294 struct nx842_crypto_param p;
295 struct nx842_constraints c;
296 unsigned int groups, hdrsize, h;
297 int ret, n;
298 bool add_header;
299 u16 ignore = 0;
300
301 if (!tfm || !src || !slen || !dst || !dlen)
^^^
Checked for NULL.
302 return -EINVAL;
303
The decompress function has the same warning:
drivers/crypto/nx/nx-842-crypto.c:486 nx842_crypto_decompress()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'tfm' (see line 478)
regards,
dan carpenter
