Subject: [PATCH v2] media: intel/ipu6: fix error pointer dereference
Date: Fri, 6 Mar 2026 21:03:55 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260307030355.26840-1-ethantidmore06@gmail.com> (raw)
In a error path isp->psys is confirmed to be an error pointer not NULL
so this condition is true and the error pointer is dereferenced. So
isp-psys should be set to NULL beforegoing to out_ipu6_bus_del_devices.
Detected by Smatch:
drivers/media/pci/intel/ipu6/ipu6.c:690 ipu6_pci_probe() error:
'isp->psys' dereferencing possible ERR_PTR()
Fixes: 25fedc021985a ("media: intel/ipu6: add Intel IPU6 PCI device driver")
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Signed-off-by: Ethan Tidmore <ethantidmore06@gmail.com>

v2:
- Add stable tag.
- Add check for null instead of setting isp->psys to NULL.
- Add Smatch warning.
