linux-stable.git/drivers/net, branch v5.12.8 Linux kernel stable tree qlcnic: Add null check after calling netdev_alloc_skb 2021-05-26T10:59:13+00:00 Tom Seewald tseewald@gmail.com 2021-05-03T11:56:52+00:00 c999df38fa3b8972f66fd026616dd734e0574447 commit 84460f01cba382553199bc1361f69a872d5abed4 upstream. The function qlcnic_dl_lb_test() currently calls netdev_alloc_skb() without checking afterwards that the allocation succeeded. Fix this by checking if the skb is NULL and returning an error in such a case. Breaking out of the loop if the skb is NULL is not correct as no error would be reported to the caller and no message would be printed for the user. Cc: David S.

commit 84460f01cba382553199bc1361f69a872d5abed4 upstream.

The function qlcnic_dl_lb_test() currently calls netdev_alloc_skb()
without checking afterwards that the allocation succeeded. Fix this by
checking if the skb is NULL and returning an error in such a case.
Breaking out of the loop if the skb is NULL is not correct as no error
would be reported to the caller and no message would be printed for the
user.

commit e6e337708c22f80824b82d4af645f20715730ad0 upstream.

niu_pci_eeprom_read() may fail, so add checks to its return value and
propagate the error up the callstack.

An examination of the callstack up to niu_pci_eeprom_read shows that:

niu_pci_eeprom_read() // returns int
    niu_pci_vpd_scan_props() // returns int
        niu_pci_vpd_fetch() // returns *void*
            niu_get_invariants() // returns int

since niu_pci_vpd_fetch() returns void which breaks the bubbling up,
change its return type to int so that error is propagated upwards.
