The behavior of drm_atomic_helper_cleanup_planes differs depending on whether the commit was an asynchronous update or not. For a typical (non-async) atomic commit prepare_fb is called on the new_plane_state and cleanup_fb is called on the old_plane_state. However, async commits are performed in place and don't swap the state for the plane. The call to prepare_fb happens on the new_plane_state and the call to cleanup_fb is also called on the new_plane_state in this case (since the state hasn't swapped). This behavior can lead to use-after-free or unpin of an active fb. Consider the following sequence of events for interleaving fbs: - Async update, fb1 prepare, fb1 cleanup_fb - Async update, fb2 prepare, fb2 cleanup_fb - Non-async update, fb1 prepare, fb2 cleanup_fb - Async update, fb2 cleanup_fb -> double cleanup, use-after-free This situation has been observed in practice for a double buffered cursor when closing an X client. The non-async update occurs because the new_plane_state->crtc != old_plane_state->crtc which forces the non-async path to occur. The simplest fix for this is to block fb updates in drm_atomic_helper_async_check. This guarantees that the framebuffer will have previously been prepared and any subsequent async updates will always call prepare and cleanup_fb like the non-async atomic commit path would.
