Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 10/11] xfs: Fix UBSAN null-ptr-deref in xfs_sysfs_init
Date: Wed, 19 Aug 2020 20:03:47 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200820000348.215911-10-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200820000348.215911-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Eiichi Tsukata <devel@etsukata.com>
[ Upstream commit 96cf2a2c75567ff56195fe3126d497a2e7e4379f ]
If xfs_sysfs_init is called with parent_kobj == NULL, UBSAN
shows the following warning:
UBSAN: null-ptr-deref in ./fs/xfs/xfs_sysfs.h:37:23
member access within null pointer of type 'struct xfs_kobj'
Call Trace:
dump_stack+0x10e/0x195

Fix it by checking parent_kobj before the code accesses its member.
