Subject: [PATCH v3 6/7] Revert "drm/gem-shmem: Use dma_buf from GEM object instance"
Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2025 17:58:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250715155934.150656-7-tzimmermann@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250715155934.150656-1-tzimmermann@suse.de>
This reverts commit 1a148af06000e545e714fe3210af3d77ff903c11.
The dma_buf field in struct drm_gem_object is not stable over the
object instance's lifetime. The field becomes NULL when user space
releases the final GEM handle on the buffer object. This resulted
in a NULL-pointer deref.
Workarounds in commit 5307dce878d4 ("drm/gem: Acquire references on
GEM handles for framebuffers") and commit f6bfc9afc751 ("drm/framebuffer:
Acquire internal references on GEM handles") only solved the problem
partially. They especially don't work for buffer objects without a DRM
framebuffer associated.
Hence, this revert to going back to using .import_attach->dmabuf.
v3:
- cc stable
