Subject: [PATCH v4 2/3] drm/amd/display: Fix dangling pointer in CRTC reset function
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2026 12:04:30 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260629090435.9729-4-evg28bur@yandex.ru> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260629090435.9729-2-evg28bur@yandex.ru>

amdgpu_dm_crtc_reset_state() frees the old state before allocating
a new one. If kzalloc_obj() fails, the function returns without updating
the state pointer, leaving a dangling pointer to already freed memory.

Fix this by allocating the new state first. On allocation failure, the
old state remains untouched and the function safely returns.

Fixes: 473683a03495 ("drm/amd/display: Create a file dedicated for CRTC")
