This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/msm: Allocate memory for disp snapshot with kvzalloc() 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-allocate-memory-for-disp-snapshot-with-kvzal.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 595231f7646be5b2abd834492d9a83af0a3899a2 Author: Douglas Anderson <dianders@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Oct 14 09:36:09 2024 -0700 drm/msm: Allocate memory for disp snapshot with kvzalloc() [ Upstream commit e4a45582db1b792c57bdb52c45958264f7fcfbdc ] With the "drm/msm: add a display mmu fault handler" series [1] we saw issues in the field where memory allocation was failing when allocating space for registers in msm_disp_state_dump_regs(). Specifically we were seeing an order 5 allocation fail. It's not surprising that order 5 allocations will sometimes fail after the system has been up and running for a while. There's no need here for contiguous memory. Change the allocation to kvzalloc() which should make it much less likely to fail.
