The driver does not populate .reg_read callback for the non-active NVMem because the file is supposed to be write-only. However, it turns out NVMem subsystem does not yet support this and expects that the .reg_read callback is provided. If user reads the binary attribute it triggers NULL pointer dereference like this one: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 ... Call Trace: bin_attr_nvmem_read+0x64/0x80 kernfs_fop_read+0xa7/0x180 vfs_read+0xbd/0x170 ksys_read+0x5a/0xd0 do_syscall_64+0x43/0x150 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 Fix this in the driver by providing .reg_read callback that always returns an error.
