Subject: [PATCH] mm/sparse:avoid null pointer access in memory_present()
Date: Sat, 17 Jun 2023 14:40:36 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230617044036.3985524-1-zhiguangni01@gmail.com> (raw)
__nr_to_section() may return a null pointer,
before accessing the member variable section_mem_map,
we should first determine whether it is a null pointer.
