6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Srinivasan Shanmugam <srinivasan.shanmugam@xxxxxxx> commit 3bb9b1f958c3d986ed90a3ff009f1e77e9553207 upstream. In link_set_dsc_pps_packet(), 'struct display_stream_compressor *dsc' was dereferenced in a DC_LOGGER_INIT(dsc->ctx->logger); before the 'dsc' NULL pointer check. Fixes the below: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/link/link_dpms.c:905 link_set_dsc_pps_packet() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'dsc' (see line 903) Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Aurabindo Pillai <aurabindo.pillai@xxxxxxx> Cc: Rodrigo Siqueira <Rodrigo.Siqueira@xxxxxxx> Cc: Hamza Mahfooz <hamza.mahfooz@xxxxxxx> Cc: Wenjing Liu <wenjing.liu@xxxxxxx> Cc: Qingqing Zhuo <qingqing.zhuo@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Srinivasan Shanmugam <srinivasan.shanmugam@xxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Aurabindo Pillai <aurabindo.pillai@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/link/link_dpms.c | 8 ++++++-- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/link/link_dpms.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/link/link_dpms.c @@ -873,11 +873,15 @@ bool link_set_dsc_pps_packet(struct pipe { struct display_stream_compressor *dsc = pipe_ctx->stream_res.dsc; struct dc_stream_state *stream = pipe_ctx->stream; - DC_LOGGER_INIT(dsc->ctx->logger); - if (!pipe_ctx->stream->timing.flags.DSC || !dsc) + if (!pipe_ctx->stream->timing.flags.DSC) + return false; + + if (!dsc) return false; + DC_LOGGER_INIT(dsc->ctx->logger); + if (enable) { struct dsc_config dsc_cfg; uint8_t dsc_packed_pps[128];
