6.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Srinivasan Shanmugam <srinivasan.shanmugam@xxxxxxx> commit fa4c500ce93f4f933c38e6d6388970e121e27b21 upstream. The fix involves adding a null check for 'stream' at the beginning of the function. If 'stream' is NULL, the function immediately returns false. This ensures that 'stream' is not NULL when we dereference it to access 'ctx' in 'dc = stream->ctx->dc;' the function. Fixes the below: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/core/dc_stream.c:398 dc_stream_program_cursor_position() error: we previously assumed 'stream' could be null (see line 397) drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/core/dc_stream.c 389 bool dc_stream_program_cursor_position( 390 struct dc_stream_state *stream, 391 const struct dc_cursor_position *position) 392 { 393 struct dc *dc; 394 bool reset_idle_optimizations = false; 395 const struct dc_cursor_position *old_position; 396 397 old_position = stream ? &stream->cursor_position : NULL; ^^^^^^^^ The patch adds a NULL check --> 398 dc = stream->ctx->dc; ^^^^^^^^ The old code didn't check 399 400 if (dc_stream_set_cursor_position(stream, position)) { 401 dc_z10_restore(dc); 402 403 /* disable idle optimizations if enabling cursor */ 404 if (dc->idle_optimizations_allowed && 405 (!old_position->enable || dc->debug.exit_idle_opt_for_cursor_updates) && 406 position->enable) { 407 dc_allow_idle_optimizations(dc, false); Fixes: f63f86b5affc ("drm/amd/display: Separate setting and programming of cursor") Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Harry Wentland <harry.wentland@xxxxxxx> Cc: Tom Chung <chiahsuan.chung@xxxxxxx> Cc: Rodrigo Siqueira <Rodrigo.Siqueira@xxxxxxx> Cc: Roman Li <roman.li@xxxxxxx> Cc: Aurabindo Pillai <aurabindo.pillai@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Srinivasan Shanmugam <srinivasan.shanmugam@xxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Harry Wentland <harry.wentland@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/core/dc_stream.c | 5 ++++- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/core/dc_stream.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/core/dc_stream.c @@ -394,7 +394,10 @@ bool dc_stream_program_cursor_position( bool reset_idle_optimizations = false; const struct dc_cursor_position *old_position; - old_position = stream ? &stream->cursor_position : NULL; + if (!stream) + return false; + + old_position = &stream->cursor_position; dc = stream->ctx->dc; if (dc_stream_set_cursor_position(stream, position)) {
