Subject: [PATCH v2] scsi: hisi_sas: Fix NULL pointer dereference
Date: Thu, 18 Oct 2018 18:59:39 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181018165939.GA26491@embeddedor.com> (raw)

There is a NULL pointer dereference in case *slot* happens to
be NULL at lines 1053 and 1878:

struct hisi_sas_cq *cq =
	&hisi_hba->cq[slot->dlvry_queue];

Notice that *slot* is being NULL checked at lines 1057 and 1881:
if (slot), which implies it may be NULL.

Fix this by placing the declaration and definition of variable cq,
which contains the pointer dereference slot->dlvry_queue, after
slot has been properly NULL checked.

Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1474515 ("Dereference before null check")

Fixes: 584f53fe5f52 ("scsi: hisi_sas: Fix the race between IO completion and timeout for SMP/internal IO")

Changes in v2:
 - Fix another instance of the same issue at line 1053.
 - Update commit log.
