ocfs2: check if cluster name exists before deref Commit c74a3bdd9b52 ("ocfs2: add clustername to cluster connection") is trying to strlcpy a string which was explicitly passed as NULL in the very same patch, triggering a NULL ptr deref. BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: strlcpy (lib/string.c:388 lib/string.c:151) CPU: 19 PID: 19426 Comm: trinity-c19 Tainted: G W 3.14.0-rc7-next-20140325-sasha-00014-g9476368-dirty #274 RIP: strlcpy (lib/string.c:388 lib/string.c:151) Call Trace: ocfs2_cluster_connect (fs/ocfs2/stackglue.c:350) ocfs2_cluster_connect_agnostic (fs/ocfs2/stackglue.c:396) user_dlm_register (fs/ocfs2/dlmfs/userdlm.c:679) dlmfs_mkdir (fs/ocfs2/dlmfs/dlmfs.c:503) vfs_mkdir (fs/namei.c:3467) SyS_mkdirat (fs/namei.c:3488 fs/namei.c:3472) tracesys (arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S:749) akpm: this patch probably disables the feature.
