From 740a8de0796dd12890b3c8ddcfabfcb528b78d40 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Akiyama, Nobuyuki" Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2008 11:22:01 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [IA64] adding parameter check to module_free() module_free() refers the first parameter before checking. But it is called like below(in kernel/kprobes). The first parameter is always NULL. This happens when many probe points(>1024) are set by kprobes. I encountered this with using SystemTap. It can set many probes easily. static int __kprobes collect_one_slot(struct kprobe_insn_page *kip, int idx) { ... if (kip->nused == 0) { hlist_del(&kip->hlist); if (hlist_empty(&kprobe_insn_pages)) { ... } else { module_free(NULL, kip->insns); //<<< 1st param always NULL kfree(kip); } return 1; } return 0; } Signed-off-by: Akiyama, Nobuyuki Signed-off-by: Tony Luck --- arch/ia64/kernel/module.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/arch/ia64/kernel/module.c b/arch/ia64/kernel/module.c index e83e2ea3b3e0..29aad349e0c4 100644 --- a/arch/ia64/kernel/module.c +++ b/arch/ia64/kernel/module.c @@ -321,7 +321,8 @@ module_alloc (unsigned long size) void module_free (struct module *mod, void *module_region) { - if (mod->arch.init_unw_table && module_region == mod->module_init) { + if (mod && mod->arch.init_unw_table && + module_region == mod->module_init) { unw_remove_unwind_table(mod->arch.init_unw_table); mod->arch.init_unw_table = NULL; } -- 2.20.1
