4Subject: net/rds: fix possible cp null dereference

6From: Mahmoud Adam <mngyadam@amazon.com>

8commit 62fc3357e079a07a22465b9b6ef71bb6ea75ee4b upstream.
9
10cp might be null, calling cp->cp_conn would produce null dereference
11
12[Simon Horman adds:]
13
14Analysis:
15
16* cp is a parameter of __rds_rdma_map and is not reassigned.
17
18* The following call-sites pass a NULL cp argument to __rds_rdma_map()
19
20 - rds_get_mr()
21 - rds_get_mr_for_dest
22
23* Prior to the code above, the following assumes that cp may be NULL
24 (which is indicative, but could itself be unnecessary)
25
26 trans_private = rs->rs_transport->get_mr(
27 sg, nents, rs, &mr->r_key, cp ? cp->cp_conn : NULL,
28 args->vec.addr, args->vec.bytes,
29 need_odp ? ODP_ZEROBASED : ODP_NOT_NEEDED);
30
31* The code modified by this patch is guarded by IS_ERR(trans_private),
32 where trans_private is assigned as per the previous point in this analysis.
33
34 The only implementation of get_mr that I could locate is rds_ib_get_mr()
35 which can return an ERR_PTR if the conn (4th) argument is NULL.
36
37* ret is set to PTR_ERR(trans_private).
38 rds_ib_get_mr can return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) if the conn (4th) argument is NULL.
39 Thus ret may be -ENODEV in which case the code in question will execute.
40
41Conclusion:
42* cp may be NULL at the point where this patch adds a check;
43 this patch does seem to address a possible bug
