Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ASoC: sti: Return errors from regmap_field_alloc()
Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2026 16:26:33 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260220152634.480766-2-sander@svanheule.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260220152634.480766-1-sander@svanheule.net>
When regmap_field_alloc() fails, it can return an error. Specifically,
it will return PTR_ERR(-ENOMEM) when the allocation returns a NULL
pointer. The code then uses these allocations with a simple NULL check:
if (player->clk_sel) {
// May dereference invalid pointer (-ENOMEM)
err = regmap_field_write(player->clk_sel, ...);
}
Ensure initialization fails by forwarding the errors from
regmap_field_alloc(), thus avoiding the use of the invalid pointers.
Fixes: 76c2145ded6b ("ASoC: sti: Add CPU DAI driver for playback")
