Subject: [PATCH] gpu/buddy: do not pass caller list to __alloc_contig_try_harder()
Date: Tue, 6 Oct 2026 12:07:07 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261006110706.1636971-2-matthew.auld@intel.com> (raw)
If the caller passes a non-empty blocks list, __alloc_contig_try_harder()
unconditionally frees it on failure or during retry.
Pass the local allocated list instead and only splice it onto the caller's
list upon success.
Assisted-by: LLM
Reported-by: Shashiko <sashiko-bot@kernel.org>
Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/bug/linux-fa721daf-7333-48b5-a26b-624c7f5791d7
Fixes: 0a1844bf0b53 ("drm/buddy: Improve contiguous memory allocation")
