Subject: Oops in 2.5.44's fs/block_dev.c:do_open() when trying to mount a badly formated floppy
Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2002 00:41:25 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3DB5D415.4010604@easynet.be> (raw)
Offending code is:
663 if (bdev->bd_invalidated)
664 rescan_partitions(disk, bdev);
665 } else {
666 down(&bdev->bd_contains->bd_sem);
667 bdev->bd_contains->bd_part_count++;
668 if (!bdev->bd_openers) {
669 struct hd_struct *p;
670 p = disk->part + part - 1;
^^^^^^^^^^
this is NULL when the floppy is badly formatted
The problem is not present in 2.5.43, but is also present in 2.5.44-ac1
