I got a null-ptr-deref report: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000030 ... RIP: 0010:kobject_put+0x2a/0x180 ... Call Trace: put_device+0x25/0x30 drm_minor_alloc_release.cold+0x45/0x7f [drm] drm_managed_release+0x158/0x2d0 [drm] drm_dev_init+0x3a7/0x4a0 [drm] __devm_drm_dev_alloc+0x55/0xd0 [drm] mi0283qt_probe+0x8a/0x2b5 [mi0283qt] spi_probe+0xeb/0x130 ... entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae If drm_sysfs_minor_alloc() fails in drm_minor_alloc(), minor->kdev will point to PTR_ERR(...) instead of NULL. This will result in null-ptr-deref when put_device(minor->kdev) is called. drm_dev_init() drm_minor_alloc() drm_sysfs_minor_alloc(); // fail, minor->kdev = PTR_ERR(...) drm_managed_release() drm_minor_alloc_release() put_device(minor->kdev); // access non-existent kdev Define a temp variable and assign it to minor->kdev if the temp variable is not PTR_ERR.
