Subject: [PATCH v3] KVM: PPC: Fix callback check in kvmppc_gsm_refresh_info
Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2026 21:31:24 +0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260918143124.9913-1-kaylovefoss@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260907145626.7675e892-56-amachhiw@linux.ibm.com>
The kvmppc_gsm_refresh_info() function incorrectly checks for the
presence of the fill_info callback instead of refresh_info.
This can lead to:
- NULL pointer dereference if refresh_info is NULL but fill_info is present
- EINVAL return if refresh_info is present but fill_info is NULL
Fix this by checking the correct callback.
Fixes: 6ccbbc33f06ad ("KVM: PPC: Add helper library for Guest State Buffers")
