This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/amd/display: Check null pointers before using dc->clk_mgr to the 6.10-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-amd-display-check-null-pointers-before-using-dc-.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d08eb057942b3b212e05761baf51166bf77cd21f Author: Alex Hung <alex.hung@xxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jul 29 15:29:09 2024 -0600 drm/amd/display: Check null pointers before using dc->clk_mgr [ Upstream commit 95d9e0803e51d5a24276b7643b244c7477daf463 ] [WHY & HOW] dc->clk_mgr is null checked previously in the same function, indicating it might be null. Passing "dc" to "dc->hwss.apply_idle_power_optimizations", which dereferences null "dc->clk_mgr". (The function pointer resolves to "dcn35_apply_idle_power_optimizations".) This fixes 1 FORWARD_NULL issue reported by Coverity.
