Subject: [PATCH v3] misc: alcor_pci: fix null-ptr-deref when there is no PCI bridge
Date: Thu, 13 May 2021 00:07:33 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210513040732.1310159-1-ztong0001@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <YJwFLgvgIXHn8Zch@kroah.com>

There is an issue with the ASPM(optional) capability checking function.
A device might be attached to root complex directly, in this case,
bus->self(bridge) will be NULL, thus priv->parent_pdev is NULL.
Since alcor_pci_init_check_aspm(priv->parent_pdev) checks the PCI link's
ASPM capability and populate parent_cap_off, which will be used later by
alcor_pci_aspm_ctrl() to dynamically turn on/off device, what we can do
here is to avoid checking the capability if we are on the root complex.
This will make pdev_cap_off 0 and alcor_pci_aspm_ctrl() will simply
return when bring called, effectively disable ASPM for the device.

v2: check before calling alcor_pci_find_cap_offset()
v3: Add comment. Enable the dev_dbg() output when priv->parent_pdev is NULL.
