Subject: [PATCH] drm/meson: fix NULL pointer dereference in meson_drv_bind_master()
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 12:16:57 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111091657.598-1-rand.sec96@gmail.com> (raw)
If the allocation of priv fails, meson_drv_bind_master() jumps to the
free_drm label, which calls meson_encoder_{dsi,hdmi,cvbs}_remove() with
a NULL priv. These functions dereference priv, so the error path oopses
instead of returning -ENOMEM.
Only the drm device has been allocated at that point, so put it and
return directly.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
Compile tested only.
Fixes: 6a044642988b ("drm/meson: fix unbind path if HDMI fails to bind")
