[PATCH v2 1/1] mux: mux-core: Add NULL check for dev->of_node

[PATCH v2 1/1] mux: mux-core: Add NULL check for dev->of_node

[sathyanarayanan.kuppuswamy]

From: Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan <sathyanarayanan.kuppuswamy@linux.intel.com>

If dev->of_node is NULL, then calling mux_control_get()
function can lead to NULL pointer exception. So adding
a NULL check for dev->of_node.

Do you have a driver that might call mux_control_get and not have any
of_node? If not, I don't see the point of this check.

For non-device tree drivers, this case is valid. I hit this issue when I 
was working on Intel USB MUX driver.

Since this is an API for other consumers, I think its better to have 
some sanity checks.

If a non device tree driver call this API , I think its better to fail 
with some error no instead of creating null pointer exception.

Is it? When authoring a new driver, and you make some error like this, why
is a "nice" error better than a big fat fail? If you get a null deref,
you will presumably also get a call stack etc, which will help you find
where you made the error, w/o adding a bunch of traces to find out exactly
what you did wrong.

So, I'm skeptic...

In this case, I think the error can happen even if there is any 
configuration mismatch in device tree blob. So its not only
about API usage in driver. If you think that you need to fail the system 
if the API is used without proper dt node configuration,
  then we should use something like BUG or WARN_ON to explicitly mention 
this dependency.  But I think its better to
leave this decision to the MUX consumers because there use cases where 
MUX control can be optional

No, it cannot happen for any of the existing consumers. And seeing crashes
if the DT blob is faulty isn't unexpected. I'm sure the ways to provoke a
crash in that situation are abundant.

But this is something that *cannot* happen unless you add some new code
somewhere else. Why check at all?

This is only future-proofing for consumers that does not exist, and does
nothing for the existing code. And the future where this is needed might
never happen.

If we can prevent the crash and fail with some meaning full message, I think
we should adapt to it. if you want to leave a strong message, my 
suggestion is to
use BUG or WARN_ON.

Its not just kernel code here, DT tables are also involved.

I agree with philosophy of not bloating the kernel by merging un-used
code. But I think this concept should be limited to adding new APIs or
drivers. But for bugs in existing code I am not sure whether we should
follow the same principle.

I have checked some use cases of dev->of_node in kernel, and most of 
them who uses it in
kernel APIs have some form of protection check for it. For example, take 
a look at the
following functions.

int platform_get_irq(struct platform_device *dev, unsigned int num)
bool device_dma_supported(struct device *dev)
struct pwm_device *pwm_get(struct device *dev, const char *con_id)

These APIs have checks like,

if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF) &&  dev->of_node)

If you are still skeptic, I am out of arguments -:)

No, DT is not involved. See, *all* callers (or both, as it stands) already
check this before they make the call.

So no, this *cannot* happen unless you add some new code somewhere else.

There's no bug, and this patch is not a bug-fix. It's a belt-and-suspenders
patch.

In the future, it might turn into a bug-fix if someone has added a call
from a driver that does not require DT for something else. But then the
onus is on the author of that driver to test that it actually works without
DT. So, the question is how that author would like this to not work when
these tests are made. If the kernel crashes, it's bleeding obvious. If
you add a WARN, the results are pretty much the same. Sure, the kernel
continues, but the author simply cannot ship things in that state anyway,
and has to come up with some sort of fix. And that fix is some mix of:
- something like your patch, and falling back to something else on failure
- making the mux_control_get call optional
- adding some sort of implementation that provides some other way to look
  up the intended mux-control.

(BTW, adding a BUG for this is not appropriate. And Linus hates those...)

Those APIs are used a lot more, and have probably evolved from a time when
DT was not the norm for non-discoverable systems.

> If you are still skeptic, I am out of arguments -:)

I just get the feeling that this is something that is never going to
be needed. When a non-DT driver needs a mux, this will come naturally.
Until then, who cares?
