Subject: [PATCH 1/1] iommu: Return right value in iommu_sva_bind_device()
Date: Tue, 28 May 2024 12:25:28 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240528042528.71396-1-baolu.lu@linux.intel.com> (raw)

iommu_sva_bind_device() should return either a sva bond handle or an
ERR_PTR value in error cases. Existing drivers (idxd and uacce) only
check the return value with IS_ERR(). This could potentially lead to
a kernel NULL pointer dereference issue if the function returns NULL
instead of an error pointer.

In reality, this doesn't cause any problems because iommu_sva_bind_device()
only returns NULL when the kernel is not configured with CONFIG_IOMMU_SVA.
In this case, iommu_dev_enable_feature(dev, IOMMU_DEV_FEAT_SVA) will
return an error, and the device drivers won't call iommu_sva_bind_device()
at all.

Fixes: 26b25a2b98e4 ("iommu: Bind process address spaces to devices")
