[PATCH] scsi: libfc: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in fc_lport_ptp_setup
Posted by Wenchao Hao 2 years, 2 months ago
fc_lport_ptp_setup() did not check the return value of fc_rport_create()
which is possible to return NULL which would cause a NULL pointer
dereference. Address this issue by checking return value of
fc_rport_create() and log error message on fc_rport_create() failed.

Thanks,

I verified that fc_lport_ptp_setup can return NULL (if kzalloc fails).
