In case create_workqueue() fails, release all resources and return -ENOMEM to caller to avoid potential NULL pointer deref later. Move up the create_workequeue() call to return early and avoid unwinding the call to riocm_rx_fill().

Upon review, this commit was found to be incorrect for the reasons below, so it must be reverted. It will be fixed up "correctly" in a later kernel change.

This reverts commit fc6a6521. Because of recent interactions with developers from @umn.edu, all commits from them have been recently re-reviewed to ensure if they were correct or not. Upon review, this commit was found to be incorrect for the reasons below, so it must be reverted. It will be fixed up "correctly" in a later kernel change. The change being reverted does NOTHING as the caller to this function does not even look at the return value of the call. So the "claim" that this fixed an an issue is not true. It will be fixed up properly in a future patch by propagating the error up the stack correctly.

Move hw->cfg.mode and hw->addr.mode assignments from hw->ci->cfg_mode and hw->ci->addr_mode respectively, to be before the subsequent checks for memory IO mode (and possible ioremap calls in this case). Also introduce ioremap error checks at both locations. This allows resources to be properly freed on ioremap failure, as when the caller of setup_io then subsequently calls release_io via its error path, release_io can now correctly determine the mode as it has been set before the ioremap call. Finally, refactor release_io function so that it will call release_mem_region in the memory IO case, regardless of whether or not hw->cfg.p/hw->addr.p are NULL. This means resources are then properly released on failure. This properly implements the original reverted commit (d721fe99) from the University of Minnesota, whilst also implementing the ioremap check for the hw->ci->cfg_mode if block as well. Cc: David S.

Given there are no users for this code around, I'll just revert this and leave it "as is" as the odds that ioremap() will ever fail here is horrendiously low.

The return of ioremap if not checked, and can lead to a NULL to be assigned to hga_vram. Potentially leading to a NULL pointer dereference. The fix adds code to deal with this case in the error label and changes how the hgafb_probe handles the return of hga_card_detect.

Upon review, this commit was found to be incorrect for the reasons below, so it must be reverted. It will be fixed up "correctly" in a later kernel change. This patch "looks" correct, but the driver keeps on running and will fail horribly right afterward if this error condition ever trips.

The field "fm_res" of "struct snd_sb8" is never used/dereferenced throughout the sb8.c code. Therefore there is no need for any null value check after the "request_region()".

The fields, "toc" and "cd_info", of "struct gdrom_unit gd" are allocated in "probe_gdrom()". Prevent a memory leak by making sure "gd.cd_info" is deallocated in the "remove_gdrom()" function. Also prevent double free of the field "gd.toc" by moving it from the module's exit function to "remove_gdrom()". This is because, in "probe_gdrom()", the function makes sure to deallocate "gd.toc" in case of any errors, so the exit function invoked later would again free "gd.toc". The patch also maintains consistency by deallocating the above mentioned fields in "remove_gdrom()" along with another memory allocated field "gd.disk". Suggested-by:

The function qlcnic_dl_lb_test() currently calls netdev_alloc_skb() without checking afterwards that the allocation succeeded. Fix this by checking if the skb is NULL and returning an error in such a case. Breaking out of the loop if the skb is NULL is not correct as no error would be reported to the caller and no message would be printed for the user. Cc: David S.

niu_pci_eeprom_read() may fail, so add checks to its return value and propagate the error up the callstack. An examination of the callstack up to niu_pci_eeprom_read shows that: niu_pci_eeprom_read() // returns int niu_pci_vpd_scan_props() // returns int niu_pci_vpd_fetch() // returns *void* niu_get_invariants() // returns int since niu_pci_vpd_fetch() returns void which breaks the bubbling up, change its return type to int so that error is propagated upwards.

While it is nice to check if niu_pci_eeprom_read() succeeded or not when using the data, any error that might have happened was not propagated upwards properly, causing the kernel to assume that these reads were successful, which results in invalid data in the buffer that was to contain the successfully read data.

The condition of dev == NULL is impossible in caif_xmit(), hence it is for the removal. Explanation: The static caif_xmit() is only called upon via a function pointer `ndo_start_xmit` defined in include/linux/netdevice.h: ``` struct net_device_ops { ... netdev_tx_t (*ndo_start_xmit)(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev); ... } ``` The exhausive list of call points are: ``` drivers/net/ethernet/qualcomm/rmnet/rmnet_map_command.c dev->netdev_ops->ndo_start_xmit(skb, dev); ^ ^ drivers/infiniband/ulp/opa_vnic/opa_vnic_netdev.c struct opa_vnic_adapter *adapter = opa_vnic_priv(netdev); ^ ^ return adapter->rn_ops->ndo_start_xmit(skb, netdev); // adapter would crash first ^ ^ drivers/usb/gadget/function/f_ncm.c ncm->netdev->netdev_ops->ndo_start_xmit(NULL, ncm->netdev); ^ ^ include/linux/netdevice.h static inline netdev_tx_t __netdev_start_xmit(... { return ops->ndo_start_xmit(skb, dev); ^ } const struct net_device_ops *ops = dev->netdev_ops; ^ rc = __netdev_start_xmit(ops, skb, dev, more); ^ ``` In each of the enumerated scenarios, it is impossible for the NULL-valued dev to reach the caif_xmit() without crashing the kernel earlier, therefore `BUG_ON(dev == NULL)` is rather useless, hence the removal.

This reverts commit 9aa3aa15. Because of recent interactions with developers from @umn.edu, all commits from them have been recently re-reviewed to ensure if they were correct or not. Upon review, it was determined that this commit is not needed at all so just revert it. Also, the call to lm80_init_client() was not properly handled, so if error handling is needed in the lm80_probe() function, then it should be done properly, not half-baked like the commit being reverted here did.
