Subject: [PATCH 1/2] drm/atmel-hlcdc: fix memory leak from the atomic_destroy_state callback
Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2025 18:14:52 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251024-lcd_fixes_mainlining-v1-1-79b615130dc3@microchip.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251024-lcd_fixes_mainlining-v1-0-79b615130dc3@microchip.com>
After several commits, the slab memory increases. Some drm_crtc_commit
objects are not freed. The atomic_destroy_state callback only put the
framebuffer. Use the __drm_atomic_helper_plane_destroy_state() function
to put all the objects that are no longer needed.
It has been seen after hours of usage of a graphics application or using
kmemleak:
unreferenced object 0xc63a6580 (size 64):
comm "egt_basic", pid 171, jiffies 4294940784
hex dump (first 32 bytes):
