Ian Abbott 829fbd1ddf staging: comedi: ni_routes: fix null dereference in ni_find_route_source()
commit 01e20b664f808a4f3048ca3f930911fd257209bd upstream.

In `ni_find_route_source()`, `tables->route_values` gets dereferenced.
However it is possible that `tables->route_values` is `NULL`, leading to
a null pointer dereference.  `tables->route_values` will be `NULL` if
the call to `ni_assign_device_routes()` during board initialization
returned an error due to missing device family routing information or
missing board-specific routing information.  For example, there is
currently no board-specific routing information provided for the
PCIe-6251 board and several other boards, so those are affected by this
bug.

The bug is triggered when `ni_find_route_source()` is called via
`ni_check_trigger_arg()` or `ni_check_trigger_arg_roffs()` when checking
the arguments for setting up asynchronous commands.  Fix it by returning
`-EINVAL` if `tables->route_values` is `NULL`.

Even with this fix, setting up asynchronous commands to use external
trigger sources for boards with missing routing information will still
fail gracefully.  Since `ni_find_route_source()` only depends on the
device family routing information, it would be better if that was made
available even if the board-specific routing information is missing.
That will be addressed by another patch.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
