Subject: [PATCH] eeh: Fixing a bug when pci structure is null
Date: Tue, 02 Feb 2010 15:46:28 -0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B6864F4.1030106@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1264789719-15591-1-git-send-email-leitao@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

 During a EEH recover, the pci_dev structure can be null, mainly if an
 eeh event is detected during cpi config operation. In this case, the
 pci_dev will not be known (and will be null) and the kernel will crash
 with the following message:
 
 Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x000000a0
 Faulting instruction address: 0xc00000000006b8b4
 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
 
 NIP [c00000000006b8b4] .eeh_event_handler+0x10c/0x1a0
 LR [c00000000006b8a8] .eeh_event_handler+0x100/0x1a0
 Call Trace:
 [c0000003a80dff00] [c00000000006b8a8] .eeh_event_handler+0x100/0x1a0
 [c0000003a80dff90] [c000000000031f1c] .kernel_thread+0x54/0x70
 
 The bug occurs because pci_name() tries to access a null pointer.
 This patch just guarantee that pci_name() is not called on Null pointers.
