[gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: Patch "drm: re-enable error handling" has been added to the 4.4-stable tree]

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

 



Hi !

this is also the wrong version of the patch - the proper version is
below. This has been posted to lkml https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/18/191
but there was no review yet - the version you have though is for sure
broken. So maybe this should be simply dropped until the fix is confirmed

thx!

Subject: drm: re-enable error handling

From: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit d530b5f1ca0bb66958a2b714bebe40a1248b9c15 ]

drm_legacy_ctxbitmap_next() returns idr_alloc() which can return
-ENOMEM, -EINVAL or -ENOSPC none of which are -1 . but the call sites
of drm_legacy_ctxbitmap_next() seem to be assuming that the error case
would be -1 (original return of drm_ctxbitmap_next() prior to 2.6.23
was actually -1). Thus reenable error handling by checking for < 0.
