Subject: [PATCH 3.10 10/18] target: Fix alua_access_state attribute OOPs for un-configured devices
Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2014 16:22:14 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140612232213.407360253@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140612232212.960235342@linuxfoundation.org>

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org>

commit f1453773514bb8b0bba0716301e8c8f17f8d39c7 upstream.

This patch fixes a OOPs where an attempt to write to the per-device
alua_access_state configfs attribute at:

  /sys/kernel/config/target/core/$HBA/$DEV/alua/$TG_PT_GP/alua_access_state

results in an NULL pointer dereference when the backend device has not
yet been configured.

This patch adds an explicit check for DF_CONFIGURED, and fails with
-ENODEV to avoid this case.
