Hello Tvrtko Ursulin,
The patch a19d6ff29a82: "drm/i915: Small compaction of the engine
init code" from Jun 23, 2016, leads to the following static checker
warning:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c:1973 logical_render_ring_init()
warn: passing freed memory 'engine'
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c
1970
1971 ret = logical_ring_init(engine);
1972 if (ret) {
1973 lrc_destroy_wa_ctx_obj(engine);
The problem is that logical_ring_init() frees "engine" on the error
path so this is a use after free.
1974 }
1975
1976 return ret;
1977 }
regards,
dan carpenter
