commit8b5cb7e41dupstream. Syzbot hit NULL deref in rhashtable_free_and_destroy(). The problem was in mesh_paths and mpp_paths being NULL. mesh_pathtbl_init() could fail in case of memory allocation failure, but nobody cared, since ieee80211_mesh_init_sdata() returns void. It led to leaving 2 pointers as NULL. Syzbot has found null deref on exit path, but it could happen anywhere else, because code assumes these pointers are valid. Since all ieee80211_*_setup_sdata functions are void and do not fail, let's embedd mesh_paths and mpp_paths into parent struct to avoid adding error handling on higher levels and follow the pattern of others setup_sdata functions Fixes:60854fd945("mac80211: mesh: convert path table to rhashtable") Reported-and-tested-by: syzbot+860268315ba86ea6b96b@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Pavel Skripkin <paskripkin@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211230195547.23977-1-paskripkin@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> [pchelkin@ispras.ru: adapt a comment spell fixing issue] Signed-off-by: Fedor Pchelkin <pchelkin@ispras.ru> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
