Subject: [PATCH] KVM: arm64: vgic-debug: Avoid dereferencing NULL ITE pointer
Date: Fri, 30 May 2025 10:16:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250530091647.1152489-1-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
Dan reports that iterating over a device ITEs can legitimately lead
to a NULL pointer, and that the NULL check is placed *after* the
pointer has already been dereferenced.
Hoist the pointer check as early as possible and be done with it.
Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@linaro.org>
Fixes: 30deb51a677b ("KVM: arm64: vgic-its: Add debugfs interface to expose ITS tables")
