Subject: [PATCH] scsi: mptfusion: Fix null pointer dereferences in mptscsih_remove()
Date: Thu, 22 Oct 2020 11:00:05 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201022090005.GA9000@ls3530.fritz.box> (raw)
The mptscsih_remove() function triggers a kernel oops if the
Scsi_Host pointer (ioc->sh) is NULL, as can be seen in this syslog:
ioc0: LSI53C1030 B2: Capabilities={Initiator,Target}
Begin: Waiting for root file system ...
scsi host2: error handler thread failed to spawn, error = -4
mptspi: ioc0: WARNING - Unable to register controller with SCSI subsystem
Backtrace:

This patch adds the necessary NULL-pointer checks.
Successfully tested on a HP C8000 parisc workstation with buggy SCSI drives.
