Subject: [PATCH] RDMA/rtrs: guard against null kobj name
Date: Sat, 22 Aug 2026 23:33:43 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260823034303.163403-1-ryan.mehri1@gmail.com> (raw)
In the client, if `init_path()` errors, the callee tries to clean up
with `rtrs_clt_close_conns()`. However, this can lead to calling the
event tracing code with `clt_path->kobj->name` being `NULL` and thus
causing a null pointer dereference when trying to copy from it.
This just adds a guard to check that the name is not `NULL` before
copying from it. The server appears to have a similar pattern.
Fixes: 5a93929d9f9a1 ("RDMA/rtrs-clt: Add event tracing support")
Fixes: c16762b7bf54d ("RDMA/rtrs-srv: Add event tracing support")
Reported-by: syzbot+1695193198994f4e7fed@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=1695193198994f4e7fed
