My Nexus 5 reliably crashes with a null dereference of mAGpsRilInterface when doing GPS at http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/dom/system/gonk/GonkGPSGeolocationProvider.cpp#341.
I assume khuey is using B2G 2.1 and that 1.4 is also affected because regressing bug 1032063 was uplifted mozilla-b2g30_v1_4.
Kan-Ru: this crash is a regression from update_network bug 1032063.

Right. We ensure we have mAGpsInterface at that point but we have to check mAGpsRilInterface before use.

Comment on attachment 8473637 [details] [diff] [review] Check mAGpsRilInterface before use [Approval Request Comment] Bug caused by (feature/regressing bug #): bug 1032063 User impact if declined: This crash fix is necessary for bug 1032063, which is a 1.4+ blocker that we'd like to fix on 2.0. That fix will improve geolocation and FMD on non-QC devices. (QC replaces our Gecko geolocation code with their own.) Testing completed: Dolphin running 1.4 Risk to taking this patch (and alternatives if risky): Low risk. This patch just adds some null pointer checks. String or UUID changes made by this patch: None
