From 19a51b0ee71ee00497619f441c59b4acd44cf1e5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "KAMBAROV, ZAUR" Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2005 18:12:05 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] coverity: tty_ldisc_ref return null check We add a check of the return value of tty_ldisc_ref(), which is checked 7 out of 8 times, e.g.: 149 ld = tty_ldisc_ref(tty); 150 if (ld != NULL) { 151 if (ld->set_termios) 152 (ld->set_termios)(tty, &old_termios); 153 tty_ldisc_deref(ld); 154 } This defect was found automatically by Coverity Prevent, a static analysis tool. (akpm: presumably `ld' is never NULL. Oh well) Signed-off-by: Zaur Kambarov Acked-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Chris Wright Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- drivers/char/tty_ioctl.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/char/tty_ioctl.c b/drivers/char/tty_ioctl.c index 58597993954f..f19cf9d7792d 100644 --- a/drivers/char/tty_ioctl.c +++ b/drivers/char/tty_ioctl.c @@ -476,11 +476,11 @@ int n_tty_ioctl(struct tty_struct * tty, struct file * file, ld = tty_ldisc_ref(tty); switch (arg) { case TCIFLUSH: - if (ld->flush_buffer) + if (ld && ld->flush_buffer) ld->flush_buffer(tty); break; case TCIOFLUSH: - if (ld->flush_buffer) + if (ld && ld->flush_buffer) ld->flush_buffer(tty); /* fall through */ case TCOFLUSH: -- cgit v1.2.3
