Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915/gvt: Fix mm reference leak in handle_g2v_notification()
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 17:37:20 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260916173720.2088455-1-vulab@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)
intel_vgpu_get_ppgtt_mm() returns a reference the caller must drop, but
the PPGTT page table create path only inspected the result. A page
table that is already tracked gained an extra reference which nothing
would ever drop. Skip the lookup-get for an already registered mm; a
newly created mm keeps its initial registration reference.
Fixes: e6e9c46fd235 ("drm/i915/gvt: Factor out intel_vgpu_{get, put}_ppgtt_mm interface")
