[PATCH] iommu/riscv: check pte null pointer before use
Posted by Huang XianLiang 2 months ago
The riscv_iommu_pte_fetch can return NULL when the provided iova is not
yet mapped, the caller should check if the returned pointer is NULL or
not, but riscv_iommu_iova_to_phys missed this, which will then lead to
a kernel panic.

This commit just check the pointer before using it to avoid the bug.
Now, when iova_to_phys is called with an unmapped iova, the kernel will
not crash here.

Sure, will change to "Check the pointer before..." in a new version, thanks.
