From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Wed, 27 Oct 2010 21:19:04 +0000 Subject: [patch] nfsd: fix NULL dereference in setattr() Message-Id: <20101027211904.GJ6062@bicker> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: "J. Bruce Fields" Cc: Neil Brown , linux-nfs@vger.kernel.org, kernel-janitors@vger.kernel.org The original code would oops if this were called from nfsd4_setattr() because "filpp" is NULL.
