           Summary: nouveau KMS: null pointer dereference if native mode is
                    not found
           Product: xorg
           Version: git
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/nouveau
        AssignedTo: nouveau-PD4FTy7X32lNgt0PjOBp9y5qC8QIuHrW@public.gmane.org
        ReportedBy: anssi-4qZELD6Fgxhg9hUCZPvPmw@public.gmane.org
         QAContact: xorg-team-go0+a7rfsptAfugRpC6u6w@public.gmane.org


When native mode is not found by KMS, at least with NV40, there is a null
pointer dereference of native_mode in nv_output_mode_fixup() when starting X.

Kernel log attached.

(In this case native mode is not found because of "Output script table version
0x11 unknown"; I'll open a separate bug for that with proper info if none is
already open)

The output script table messages are harmless, and not the cause of your issue.

Ok. Should I still open a bugreport for the fact that the native mode is not
found, with vbios dumps etc?
I'd consider this report to be about the missing failure path here, not the
fact that it fails :)

drm_edid.c ignores detailed timings on EDID < 1.3, and this LVDS has 1.2,
causing no modes found, triggering this issue.
I'll report the EDID parsing one separately elsewhere, as it is a non-nouveau
issue.

The EDID parsing issue has been fixed in drm git.

As for this bug, I sent a patch to nouveau mailinglist some days ago, it is
awaiting review. "drm/nv04: fix null pointer dereferences of native_mode"

It's already pushed so I'm marking this as fixed.
