[PATCH] drm/display: fix possible null-pointer dereference in dcn10_set_clock()

[Chen, Guchun]

[Public]

Thanks for your patch.

I suggest moving the check of function pointer dc->clk_mgr->funcs->get_clock earlier, and return early if it's NULL, as if it's NULL, it's meaningless to continue the clock setting.

....
if (!dc->clk_mgr || !dc->clk_mgr->funcs->get_clock)
 	return DC_FAIL_UNSUPPORTED_1;

dc->clk_mgr->funcs->get_clock(dc->clk_mgr,
 	context, clock_type, &clock_cfg);
....

Regards,
Guchun

Subject: [PATCH] drm/display: fix possible null-pointer dereference in dcn10_set_clock()

The variable dc->clk_mgr is checked in:
  if (dc->clk_mgr && dc->clk_mgr->funcs->get_clock)

This indicates dc->clk_mgr can be NULL.
However, it is dereferenced in:
  if (!dc->clk_mgr->funcs->get_clock)

To fix this possible null-pointer dereference, check dc->clk_mgr before dereferencing it.
