Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
RDMA/hfi1: Prevent use of lock before it is initialized<br />
<br />
If there is a failure during probe of hfi1 before the sdma_map_lock is<br />
initialized, the call to hfi1_free_devdata() will attempt to use a lock<br />
that has not been initialized. If the locking correctness validator is on<br />
then an INFO message and stack trace resembling the following may be seen:<br />
<br />
INFO: trying to register non-static key.<br />
The code is fine but needs lockdep annotation, or maybe<br />
you didn&#39;t initialize this object before use?<br />
turning off the locking correctness validator.<br />
Call Trace:<br />
register_lock_class+0x11b/0x880<br />
__lock_acquire+0xf3/0x7930<br />
lock_acquire+0xff/0x2d0<br />
_raw_spin_lock_irq+0x46/0x60<br />
sdma_clean+0x42a/0x660 [hfi1]<br />

init_one+0x867/0x11a0 [hfi1]<br />
pci_device_probe+0x40e/0x8d0<br />
<br />
The use of sdma_map_lock in sdma_clean() is for freeing the sdma_map<br />
memory, and sdma_map is not allocated/initialized until after<br />
sdma_map_lock has been initialized. This code only needs to be run if<br />
sdma_map is not NULL, and so checking for that condition will avoid trying<br />
to use the lock before it is initialized.
