Subject: [PATCH 1/1] drivers/md/raid1.c: fix NULL pointer bug in
 fix_read_error function

in fix_read_error function, the conf->mirrors[read_disk].rdev may
become NULL, as in this function, rdev->nr_pending may be zero, anyone
can delete it. So should check if it is NULL before use.

Anyone can review this patch? I think it is a bug and should be fixed.

I agree there is a bug there but I don't think this is the right fix.
If rdev could be NULL there, then it could also be NULL in
		md_error(mddev, conf->mirrors[r1_bio->read_disk].rdev);
in handle_read_error().
I think we should just hold on to the reference to the rdev until we are
done with it, like the follow.

Would you agree?

Thanks,
NeilBrown

The md_error function will check if rdev is NULL, if it is NULL,
md_error will return directly, so I think it is doesn't matther if we
pass a NULL rdev to md_error function.

But anyway, I can't find any problem in your patch, it is correct doubtless.

Best Regards.
Hank.

I've queued it for the next merge window.
