[BUG] video: fbdev: broadsheetfb: Possible null function pointers
From: bai
Date: Thu Jul 26 2018 - 10:17:49 EST
In Linux-4.16, drivers/video/fbdev/broadsheetfb.c,
158. static void broadsheet_mmio_send_cmdargs(...) {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ ......
163.ÂÂÂÂ par->board->mmio_write(...);
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ ......
166.ÂÂÂÂ par->board->mmio_write(...);
167. }
For x86 kernel configuration, I find that there is no assignment of the
function pointer ".mmio_write" in the kernel code.
So calling the function pointer in lines 163 and 166 may cause a null
pointer dereference.
In this file, there are many calls to this function pointer...
Best wishes,
