[PATCH] debugfs: Check return value of debugfs_real_fops() for NULL
From: Matthias Kaehlcke
Date: Tue Mar 27 2018 - 19:56:40 EST
debugfs_real_fops() returns a NULL pointer when it is invoked without a
prior call to debugfs_file_get(). In code paths including this call it
is not strictly necessary to check the return value of
debugfs_real_fops(). However clang inlines debugfs_real_fops(), detects
the invalid dereferencing of the NULL pointer and drops the code path.
This leads to a bunch of objtool warnings when building with clang and
CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC=y:
fs/debugfs/file.o: warning: objtool: full_proxy_llseek() falls through to next function full_proxy_read()
fs/debugfs/file.o: warning: objtool: full_proxy_read() falls through to next function full_proxy_write()
fs/debugfs/file.o: warning: objtool: full_proxy_write() falls through to next function full_proxy_poll()
fs/debugfs/file.o: warning: objtool: full_proxy_poll() falls through to next function full_proxy_unlocked_ioctl()
fs/debugfs/file.o: warning: objtool: full_proxy_unlocked_ioctl() falls through to next function fops_u8_open()
Check the pointer returned by debugfs_real_fops() in all code paths to
make clang and objtool happy.
