Subject: [PATCH v4 12/12] dmaengine: plx_dma: fix NULL pointer deref in plx_dma_isr()
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2026 11:15:23 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260728171523.112244-13-logang@deltatee.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260728171523.112244-1-logang@deltatee.com>
plx_dma_create() registered the interrupt handler with request_irq()
before initializing plxdev->bar. If the device raised an interrupt in
that window, plx_dma_isr() would dereference the still-NULL bar.
Move the bar assignment ahead of request_irq() so everything the
handler can touch is initialized before it can run.
