In function lpfc_xcvr_data_show, the memory allocation with kmalloc might fail, thereby making rdp_context a null pointer. In the following context and functions that use this pointer, there are dereferencing operations, leading to null pointer dereference. To fix this issue, a null pointer check should be added. If it is null, just return len. Fixes: 479b0917e447 ("scsi: lpfc: Create a sysfs entry called lpfc_xcvr_data for transceiver info") Signed-off-by: Huai-Yuan Liu <qq810974084@gmail.com> --- V2: * In patch V2, we have removed the unnecessary 'out of memory' message. Thank Bart Van Assche for helpful advice. V3: * In patch V3, we return len directly instead of goto out_free_rdp. Thanks to Justin Tee for his suuestion. --- drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_attr.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+)
