Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86/intel-uncore-freq: Fail module load when plat_info is NULL
Date: Fri,  6 Jun 2025 13:53:00 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250606205300.2384494-1-srinivas.pandruvada@linux.intel.com> (raw)

Address a Smatch static checker warning regarding an unchecked
dereference in the function call:
set_cdie_id(i, cluster_info, plat_info)
when plat_info is NULL.

Instead of addressing this one case, in general if plat_info is NULL
then it can cause other issues. For example in a two package system it
will give warning for duplicate sysfs entry as package ID will be always
zero for both packages when creating string for attribute group name.

plat_info is derived from TPMI ID TPMI_BUS_INFO, which is integral to
the core TPMI design. Therefore, it should not be NULL on a production
platform. Consequently, the module should fail to load if plat_info is
NULL.
