[PATCH -next] vfio/pci: fix a null-ptr-deref in vfio_config_free()

From: Qian Cai
Date: Thu May 21 2020 - 21:18:43 EST


It is possible vfio_config_init() does not call vfio_cap_len(), and then
vdev->msi_perm == NULL. Later, in vfio_config_free(), it could trigger a
null-ptr-deref.

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
RIP: 0010:vfio_config_free+0x7a/0xe0 [vfio_pci]
vfio_config_free+0x7a/0xe0:

(inlined by) vfio_config_free at drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_config.c:1760
Call Trace:
