[PATCH] drm/mediatek: dp: drm_err => dev_err in HPD path to avoid NULL ptr

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

 



The function mtk_dp_wait_hpd_asserted() may be called before the
`mtk_dp->drm_dev` pointer is assigned in mtk_dp_bridge_attach().
Specifically it can be called via this callpath:
 - mtk_edp_wait_hpd_asserted
 - [panel probe]
 - dp_aux_ep_probe

Using "drm" level prints anywhere in this callpath causes a NULL
pointer dereference. Change the error message directly in
mtk_dp_wait_hpd_asserted() to dev_err() to avoid this. Also change the
error messages in mtk_dp_parse_capabilities(), which is called by
mtk_dp_wait_hpd_asserted().

While touching these prints, also add the error code to them to make
future debugging easier.

Unfortunately, I have only been able to compile-time test this code. I
hit the NULL pointer dereference on a device that's nowhere near
upstream and it was running (sigh) a heavily modified copy of this
code where the eDP stuff has been forked out of DP. Specifically, you
can see <https://crrev.com/c/6073744>. It's pretty easy to understand
that the same problem affects both codebases though, so I'm posting
this "blind" in the hopes to at least fix upstream.

I'll also note that the fact that mtk_edp_wait_hpd_asserted() calls
mtk_dp_parse_capabilities() feels weird/wrong to me based on other eDP
code I've worked on, but I've only barely looked at the Mediatek
driver and perhaps others have already debated this. In any case,
that's not directly related to this patch.
