Subject: [PATCH v2 1/4] misc: fastrpc: Add NULL check to fastrpc_buf_free to prevent crash
Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2026 16:28:48 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260115082851.570-2-jianping.li@oss.qualcomm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260115082851.570-1-jianping.li@oss.qualcomm.com>
From: Ekansh Gupta <ekansh.gupta@oss.qualcomm.com>
The fastrpc_buf_free function currently does not handle the case where
the input buffer pointer (buf) is NULL. This can lead to a null pointer
dereference, causing a crash or undefined behavior when the function
attempts to access members of the buf structure. Add a NULL check to
ensure safe handling of NULL pointers and prevent potential crashes.
Fixes: c68cfb718c8f9 ("misc: fastrpc: Add support for context Invoke method")
