Subject[PATCH] infiniband: hw: cxgb3: Fix a possible null-pointer dereference in connect_reply_upcall()
Date
In connect_reply_upcall(), there is an if statement on line 730 to check
whether ep->com.cm_id is NULL:
if (ep->com.cm_id)

When ep->com.cm_id is NULL, it is used on line 736:
ep->com.cm_id->rem_ref(ep->com.cm_id);

Thus, a possible null-pointer dereference may occur.

To fix this bug, ep->com.cm_id is checked before being used.

This bug is found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by us.
