Subject: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 2/4] batman-adv: Avoid nullptr derefence in batadv_v_neigh_is_sob
Date: Sun, 15 May 2016 23:11:31 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1463325093-3927-3-git-send-email-a@unstable.cc> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1463325093-3927-1-git-send-email-a@unstable.cc>

From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@narfation.org>

batadv_neigh_ifinfo_get can return NULL when it cannot find (even when only
temporarily) anymore the neigh_ifinfo in the list neigh->ifinfo_list. This
has to be checked to avoid kernel Oopses when the ifinfo is dereferenced.

This a situation which isn't expected but is already handled by functions
like batadv_v_neigh_cmp. The same kind of warning is therefore used before
the function returns without dereferencing the pointers.

Fixes: 9786906022eb ("batman-adv: B.A.T.M.A.N. V - implement neighbor comparison API calls")
