Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: check ndev pointer
Date: Sun, 2 Aug 2020 09:18:04 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200802161804.6126-1-trix@redhat.com> (raw)
From: Tom Rix <trix@redhat.com>
Clang static analysis reports this error
brcmfmac/core.c:490:4: warning: Dereference of null pointer
(*ifp)->ndev->stats.rx_errors++;
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In this block of code
if (ret || !(*ifp) || !(*ifp)->ndev) {
if (ret != -ENODATA && *ifp)
(*ifp)->ndev->stats.rx_errors++;
brcmu_pkt_buf_free_skb(skb);
return -ENODATA;
}
(*ifp)->ndev being NULL is caught as an error
But then it is used to report the error.
So add a check before using it.
Fixes: 91b632803ee4 ("brcmfmac: Use net_device_stats from struct net_device")
