[PATCH v2] bcachefs: Fix NULL pointer dereference in bch2_opt_to_text
Posted by Mohammed Anees 2 months, 1 week ago
In this patch, I added a proper bounds check to avoid a potential NULL
pointer dereference when opt->choices[v] is accessed in the
bch2_opt_to_text function. This ensures that v is within the valid
range of choices.

v2:
- Replaced pr_err with prt_printf as suggested.
- Added the bounds check on opt->choices before accessing it.

For consistency, the bounds check should come first (applying in the
OPT_SHOW_FULL_LIST case as well) - also, kill the nested if clauses,
this all works with chained if else.

Sorry for dribbling out the review feedback, that should be
everything...
