[PATCH v2] Drivers: vmbus: Check for channel allocation before looking up relids

From: Mohammed Gamal
Date: Tue Feb 14 2023 - 06:28:50 EST


relid2channel() assumes vmbus channel array to be allocated when called.
However, in cases such as kdump/kexec, not all relids will be reset by the host.
When the second kernel boots and if the guest receives a vmbus interrupt during
vmbus driver initialization before vmbus_connect() is called, before it finishes,
or if it fails, the vmbus interrupt service routine is called which in turn calls
relid2channel() and can cause a null pointer dereference.

So Make relid2channel() check if vmbus channels is allocated first, and if not
print a warning and return NULL to the caller.

Fixes: 8b6a877c060e ("Drivers: hv: vmbus: Replace the per-CPU channel lists with a global array of channels")
