From: Cathy Avery Date: Fri, 2 Oct 2015 13:35:01 +0000 (-0400) Subject: xen-blkfront: check for null drvdata in blkback_changed (XenbusStateClosing) X-Git-Tag: v3.10.93~8 X-Git-Url: http://git.hungrycats.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c69cba6c93d95bb70ea7914f47e520aa99022a27;p=linux xen-blkfront: check for null drvdata in blkback_changed (XenbusStateClosing) commit a54c8f0f2d7df525ff997e2afe71866a1a013064 upstream. xen-blkfront will crash if the check to talk_to_blkback() in blkback_changed()(XenbusStateInitWait) returns an error. The driver data is freed and info is set to NULL. Later during the close process via talk_to_blkback's call to xenbus_dev_fatal() the null pointer is passed to and dereference in blkfront_closing.
