Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: es18xx: check control allocation before private data setup
Date: Sun,  7 Jun 2026 10:56:06 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260607025613.3604194-2-ruoyuw560@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260607025613.3604194-1-ruoyuw560@gmail.com>

snd_es18xx_mixer() creates controls with snd_ctl_new1() and then stores
hardware-volume bookkeeping in the returned control before calling
snd_ctl_add(). snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL on allocation failure, so
those private_free writes can dereference NULL before snd_ctl_add() gets a
chance to reject the missing control.

Check the returned control pointers before using them and return -ENOMEM
on allocation failure.
