From: Guido Martínez <guido@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. =============== commit c9a3ad25eddfdb898114a9d73cdb4c3472d9dfca upstream. display_timings_release calls kfree on the display_timings object passed to it. Calling kfree after it is wrong. SLUB debug showed the following warning: ============================================================================= BUG kmalloc-64 (Tainted: G W ): Object already free ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint INFO: Allocated in of_get_display_timings+0x2c/0x214 age=601 cpu=0 pid=884 __slab_alloc.constprop.79+0x2e0/0x33c kmem_cache_alloc+0xac/0xdc of_get_display_timings+0x2c/0x214 panel_probe+0x7c/0x314 [tilcdc] platform_drv_probe+0x18/0x48 [..snip..] INFO: Freed in panel_destroy+0x18/0x3c [tilcdc] age=0 cpu=0 pid=907 __slab_free+0x34/0x330 panel_destroy+0x18/0x3c [tilcdc] tilcdc_unload+0xd0/0x118 [tilcdc] drm_dev_unregister+0x24/0x98 [..snip..] Signed-off-by: Guido Martínez <guido@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Darren Etheridge <detheridge@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/tilcdc/tilcdc_panel.c | 4 +--- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/tilcdc/tilcdc_panel.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/tilcdc/tilcdc_panel.c index 1943b2f50ca0..b085dcc54fb5 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/tilcdc/tilcdc_panel.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/tilcdc/tilcdc_panel.c @@ -286,10 +286,8 @@ static void panel_destroy(struct tilcdc_module *mod) { struct panel_module *panel_mod = to_panel_module(mod); - if (panel_mod->timings) { + if (panel_mod->timings) display_timings_release(panel_mod->timings); - kfree(panel_mod->timings); - } tilcdc_module_cleanup(mod); kfree(panel_mod->info); -- 2.1.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
