This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/msm/dpu: Disallow unallocated resources to be returned to the 5.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: drm-msm-dpu-disallow-unallocated-resources-to-be-ret.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 54182be79b9d6cb75c7378356d93f23b83893cda Author: Marijn Suijten <marijn.suijten@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Jan 10 00:15:55 2023 +0100 drm/msm/dpu: Disallow unallocated resources to be returned [ Upstream commit abc40122d9a69f56c04efb5a7485795f5ac799d1 ] In the event that the topology requests resources that have not been created by the system (because they are typically not represented in dpu_mdss_cfg ^1), the resource(s) in global_state (in this case DSC blocks, until their allocation/assignment is being sanity-checked in "drm/msm/dpu: Reject topologies for which no DSC blocks are available") remain NULL but will still be returned out of dpu_rm_get_assigned_resources, where the caller expects to get an array containing num_blks valid pointers (but instead gets these NULLs). To prevent this from happening, where null-pointer dereferences typically result in a hard-to-debug platform lockup, num_blks shouldn't increase past NULL blocks and will print an error and break instead. After all, max_blks represents the static size of the maximum number of blocks whereas the actual amount varies per platform. ^1: which can happen after a git rebase ended up moving additions to _dpu_cfg to a different struct which has the same patch context.
