[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ALSA: i2c: ak4xxx-adda: Fix a possible null pointer dereference in build_adc_controls()
In build_adc_controls(), there is an if statement on line 773 to check whether ak->adc_info is NULL: if (! ak->adc_info || ! ak->adc_info[mixer_ch].switch_name)
When ak->adc_info is NULL, it is used on line 792: knew.name = ak->adc_info[mixer_ch].selector_name;
Thus, a possible null-pointer dereference may occur.
To fix this bug, referring to lines 773 and 774, ak->adc_info and ak->adc_info[mixer_ch].selector_name are checked before being used.
This bug is found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by us.

The code change itself looks good, but please follow the standard coding style. In short: please run checkpatch.pl, fix errors (some warnings may be ignored) and resubmit.
thanks,

Okay, thanks for the advice. I will send a v2 patch.
