[PATCH 3.16 127/132] Bluetooth: hci_ldisc: Fix null pointer derefence in case of early data

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Fri Sep 20 2019 - 10:34:47 EST


3.16.74-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Loic Poulain <loic.poulain@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 84cb3df02aea4b00405521e67c4c67c2d525c364 upstream.

HCI_UART_PROTO_SET flag is set before hci_uart_set_proto call. If we
receive data from tty layer during this procedure, proto pointer may
not be assigned yet, leading to null pointer dereference in rx method
hci_uart_tty_receive.

This patch fixes this issue by introducing HCI_UART_PROTO_READY flag in
order to avoid any proto operation before proto opening and assignment.
