            Bug ID: 274875
           Summary: A possible null-pointer dereference caused by a data
                    race in sys/geom/gate/g_gate.c
           Product: Base System
           Version: 14.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: islituo@gmail.com

In the function g_gate_dumpconf(), sc->sc_readcons is first checked to be n=
ot
NULL:

  if (sc->sc_readcons !=3D NULL)

and then dereferenced:

  sbuf_printf(sb, "%s<read_provider>%s</read_provider>\n",
    indent, sc->sc_readcons->provider->name);

However, sc->sc_readcons can be set to NULL by other functions such as
g_gate_modify() right after it is checked:

  sc->sc_readcons =3D NULL;

and thus can cause a null-pointer dereference.
