The static analyzer in GCC 10 spotted that in huge_pte_alloc() we may pass a NULL pmdp into pte_alloc_map() when pmd_alloc() returns NULL: | CC arch/arm64/mm/pageattr.o | CC arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.o | from arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c:10: | arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c: In function ‘huge_pte_alloc’: | ./arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable-types.h:28:24: warning: dereference of NULL ‘pmdp’ [CWE-690] [-Wanalyzer-null-dereference] | ./arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable.h:436:26: note: in expansion of macro ‘pmd_val’ | arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c:242:10: note: in expansion of macro ‘pte_alloc_map’ | |arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c:232:10: | |./arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable-types.h:28:24: | ./arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable.h:436:26: note: in expansion of macro ‘pmd_val’ | arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c:242:10: note: in expansion of macro ‘pte_alloc_map’ This can only occur when the kernel cannot allocate a page, and so is unlikely to happen in practice before other systems start failing. We can avoid this by bailing out if pmd_alloc() fails, as we do earlier in the function if pud_alloc() fails.
