[PATCH 3/3] drivers/gpu/drm/drm_bufs.c: Avoid leaving freed data in a list

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If the call to drm_map_handle fails, list is freed, but not removed from
&dev->maplist.  &dev->maplist is not used by drm_map_handle, so the
list_add is moved after the call.

The sematic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression E,E1,E2;
identifier l;
@@

*list_add(&E->l,E1);
... when != E1
    when != list_del(&E->l)
    when != list_del_init(&E->l)
    when != E = E2
*kfree(E);// </smpl>

I have only verified that the list is not accessed by drm_map_handle by
inspecting the code.  If this analysis is not correct, the other solution
would be to leave the list_add where it is and delete the element from the
list explicitly.
