Hello Noralf Trønnes,
The patch b39b5394fabc: "drm/gem: Add drm_gem_object_funcs" from Nov
10, 2018, leads to the following Smatch static checker warning:
drivers/gpu/drm/drm_client.c:240 drm_client_buffer_delete()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'buffer->gem' (see line 238)
drivers/gpu/drm/drm_client.c
234 static void drm_client_buffer_delete(struct drm_client_buffer *buffer)
235 {
236 struct drm_device *dev = buffer->client->dev;
237
238 drm_gem_vunmap_unlocked(buffer->gem, &buffer->map);
^^^^^^^^^^^
Unchecked dereference inside function call.
239
--> 240 if (buffer->gem)
^^^^^^^^^^^
Too late. I don't honestly, know why this warning is only showing up
now four years later. Perhaps Smatch thought buffer->gem was always
non-NULL before but now it's not sure. I've added Dmitry to the CC list
because he seems to has been working in this area recently and might
know what's going on.
241 drm_gem_object_put(buffer->gem);
242
243 if (buffer->handle)
244 drm_mode_destroy_dumb(dev, buffer->handle, buffer->client->file);
245
246 kfree(buffer);
247 }
regards,
dan carpenter
