From 68f27f7c7708183e7873c585ded2f1b057ac5b97 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Krzysztof Kozlowski krzysztof.kozlowski@linaro.org Date: Thu, 4 Sep 2025 12:18:50 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: qcom: q6apm-lpass-dais: Fix NULL pointer dereference if source graph failed

If earlier opening of source graph fails (e.g. ADSP rejects due to incorrect audioreach topology), the graph is closed and "dai_data->graph[dai->id]" is assigned NULL. Preparing the DAI for sink graph continues though and next call to q6apm_lpass_dai_prepare() receives dai_data->graph[dai->id]=NULL leading to NULL pointer exception:
