From a45e932a3c58eac11a7458c6888910e23f615077 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sven Eckelmann Date: Fri, 6 May 2016 11:43:38 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: Avoid nullptr derefence in batadv_v_neigh_is_sob batadv_neigh_ifinfo_get can return NULL when it cannot find (even when only temporarily) anymore the neigh_ifinfo in the list neigh->ifinfo_list. This has to be checked to avoid kernel Oopses when the ifinfo is dereferenced. This a situation which isn't expected but is already handled by functions like batadv_v_neigh_cmp. The same kind of warning is therefore used before the function returns without dereferencing the pointers. Fixes: 9786906022eb ("batman-adv: B.A.T.M.A.N.
