Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda: Place check before dereference
Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2026 12:38:30 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260324173830.17563-1-ethantidmore06@gmail.com> (raw)
The struct hext_stream is dereferenced before it is checked for NULL.
Although it can never be NULL due to a check prior to
hda_dsp_iccmax_stream_hw_params() being called, this change clears any
confusion regarding hext_stream possibly being NULL.
Check hext_stream for NULL and then assign its members.
Detected by Smatch:
sound/soc/sof/intel/hda-stream.c:488 hda_dsp_iccmax_stream_hw_params() warn:
variable dereferenced before check 'hext_stream' (see line 486)
Fixes: aca961f196e5d ("ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda: Add helper function to program ICCMAX stream")
