Dear Dan,

Your mail flashes back to my memory 5 years ago.
Back then, I had cleaned up the exynos driver.

And the replacement IS_ERR was one of items.

IMHO it is still better to modify those two functions,
drm_gem_cma_prime_get_sg_table and xen_drm_front_gem_get_sg_table.

Thank you.
Best regards YJ

     Hello YoungJun Cho,

     The patch 7e3d88f9cce3: "drm/prime: replace NULL with error value in
     drm_prime_pages_to_sg" from Jun 24, 2013, leads to the following
     static checker warning:

             drivers/gpu/drm/drm_prime.c:317 drm_gem_map_dma_buf()
             warn: 'sgt' can also be NULL

     drivers/gpu/drm/drm_prime.c
        307          /*
        308           * two mappings with different directions for the
     same attachment are
        309           * not allowed
        310           */
        311          if (WARN_ON(prime_attach->dir != DMA_NONE))
        312                  return ERR_PTR(-EBUSY);
        313
        314          sgt = obj->dev->driver->gem_prime_get_sg_table(obj);

     The problematic functions here are
     drm_gem_cma_prime_get_sg_table() and
     xen_drm_front_gem_get_sg_table().  My preference would be to update
     those functions to return error pointers, but I'm not familiar
     with the
     code or able to test it.

I believe it is safe to change the return value to error pointer:
the code below (which is the only caller of .gem_prime_get_sg_table
callback) does not check for NULL anyways

Dan, do you want me to send the patch for Xen or you prefer to post both
Xen and CMA helpers fix yourself?
Can you do it and give me a Reported-by tag?
Sure
regards,
dan carpenter
