Subject: [PATCH 03/10] EDAC/altera: Guard against NULL match data in altr_sdram_probe()
Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2026 08:24:09 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260727132416.807230-4-dinguyen@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260727132416.807230-1-dinguyen@kernel.org>
sashiko reports: If a device is manually bound and lacks a valid match entry,
of_match_node() or device_get_match_data() could return NULL.
altr_sdram_probe() dereferenced the pointer returned by of_match_node()
and device_get_match_data() without checking it, which could cause a NULL
pointer dereference when no match data is found. Add a guard that logs
an error and returns -ENODEV.
Assisted-by: Cursor:claude-4.8-opus
Fixes: 143f4a5ac5af ("EDAC, altera: Refactor for Altera CycloneV SoC")
