[PATCH] drm/fb-helper: Fix drm_fb_helper_firmware_config() NULL pointer deref

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

 



Non-atomic drivers like ast doesn't have connector->state set resulting
in a NULL pointer deref:

[   29.609593] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000010
[   29.609619] Call Trace:
[   29.609630]  ? drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes+0x27f/0x680

[   29.765758]  ast_fbdev_init+0xa8/0xc0 [ast]
[   29.765762]  ast_driver_load.cold.7+0x2b3/0xe11 [ast]
[   29.765775]  drm_dev_register+0x111/0x150 [drm]

Fix by bailing out if the driver does not support atomic modesetting.
