From 2491c1be36474190af99756063e9d65bd850204c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Liequan Che Date: Mon, 2 Dec 2024 19:56:38 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] bcache: revert replacing IS_ERR_OR_NULL with IS_ERR again commit b2e382ae12a63560fca35050498e19e760adf8c0 upstream. Commit 028ddcac477b ("bcache: Remove unnecessary NULL point check in node allocations") leads a NULL pointer deference in cache_set_flush(). 1721 if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(c->root)) 1722 list_add(&c->root->list, &c->btree_cache); >From the above code in cache_set_flush(), if previous registration code fails before allocating c->root, it is possible c->root is NULL as what it is initialized. __bch_btree_node_alloc() never returns NULL but c->root is possible to be NULL at above line 1721. This patch replaces IS_ERR() by IS_ERR_OR_NULL() to fix this.
