Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/4] net: sctp: sctp_seq_dump_local_addrs: throw BUG if primary_path is NULL
Date: Thu, 13 Jun 2013 18:04:20 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1371139463-12512-2-git-send-email-dborkman@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1371139463-12512-1-git-send-email-dborkman@redhat.com>
This clearly states a BUG somewhere in the SCTP code as e.g. fixed once
in f28156335 ("sctp: Use correct sideffect command in duplicate cookie
handling"). If this ever comes up again, throw a BUG and add a comment
why this is the case since it is not too obvious when primary != NULL
test passes and at a later point in time triggering a NULL ptr dereference
caused by primary. While at it, also fix up the white space.
