Bug ID: 219951
Summary: Missing null check in ast_vhub_init_dev
Product: Drivers
Version: 2.5
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: USB
Assignee: drivers_usb@kernel-bugs.kernel.org
Reporter: bsdhenrymartin@gmail.com
Regression: No
usb: gadget: udc: aspeed-vhub: dev.c
Add NULL check in the ast_vhub_init_dev
When devm_kasprintf() fails, it returns a NULL pointer. However, this return
value is not properly checked in the function ast_vhub_init_dev.
A NULL check should be added after the devm_kasprintf call to prevent potential
NULL pointer dereference error.
CODE:
struct ast_vhub_dev *d = &vhub->ports[idx].dev;
struct device *parent = &vhub->pdev->dev;
int rc;
d->vhub = vhub;
d->index = idx;
d->name = devm_kasprintf(parent, GFP_KERNEL, "port%d", idx+1);
d->regs = vhub->regs + 0x100 + 0x10 * idx;
ast_vhub_init_ep0(vhub, &d->ep0, d);

Please submit a patch for this if you feel it needs to be fixed up.

We should first check devm_kasprintf() before setting d->vhub and d->index,
so that if allocation fails, the d struct remains in a clean state.
Patch code:
int ast_vhub_init_dev(struct ast_vhub *vhub, unsigned int idx)
{
struct ast_vhub_dev *d = &vhub->ports[idx].dev;
struct device *parent = &vhub->pdev->dev;
int rc;
/* First allocate the name (before modifying d->vhub/index) */
d->name = devm_kasprintf(parent, GFP_KERNEL, "port%d", idx + 1);
if (!d->name)
return -ENOMEM;
/* Now safe to set vhub and index */
d->vhub = vhub;
d->index = idx;
d->regs = vhub->regs + 0x100 + 0x10 * idx;
ast_vhub_init_ep0(vhub, &d->ep0, d);

Please read the kernel documentation for how to submit a patch in a way
we can accept it. We can't take it through bugzilla, sorry.

Thank you for your feedback. I've now properly submitted this patch via
email to the relevant mailing lists with you in CC, as required by the
kernel submission process.
Please let me know if there are any issues with the submission format or
content that I should address. I'm happy to make any necessary adjustments.
