Subject: [PATCH] IB/hfi1: Fix possible null-pointer dereference in _extend_sdma_tx_descs()
Date: Thu,  5 Aug 2021 05:24:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210805122412.130007-1-islituo@gmail.com> (raw)

kmalloc_array() is called to allocate memory for tx->descp. If it fails, 
the function __sdma_txclean() is called:
  __sdma_txclean(dd, tx);

However, in the function __sdma_txclean(), tx-descp is dereferenced if 
tx->num_desc is not zero:
  sdma_unmap_desc(dd, &tx->descp[0]);

To fix this possible null-pointer dereference, assign 0 to tx->num_desc if
kmalloc_array() returns NULL.
