Subject: [PATCH V2 net] net: fec: Coverity issue: Dereference null return value
Date: Mon, 19 Dec 2022 10:27:55 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221219022755.1047573-1-wei.fang@nxp.com> (raw)

From: Wei Fang <wei.fang@nxp.com>

The build_skb might return a null pointer but there is no check on the
return value in the fec_enet_rx_queue(). So a null pointer dereference
might occur. To avoid this, we check the return value of build_skb. If
the return value is a null pointer, the driver will recycle the page and
update the statistic of ndev. Then jump to rx_processing_done to clear
the status flags of the BD so that the hardware can recycle the BD.

V2 changes:
1. Remove rx_packets and rx_bytes counters.
2. Use netdev_err_once instead of netdev_err.
