Subject: [PATCH 6.6.y 1/2] fbdev: hyperv_fb: Simplify hvfb_putmem
Date: Thu, 8 Oct 2026 15:13:04 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008191309.98263-2-artem@trailofbits.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008191309.98263-1-artem@trailofbits.com>
From: Saurabh Sengar <ssengar@linux.microsoft.com>
[ Upstream commit f5e728a50bb17336a20803dde488515b833ecd1d ]
The device object required in 'hvfb_release_phymem' function
for 'dma_free_coherent' can also be obtained from the 'info'
pointer, making 'hdev' parameter in 'hvfb_putmem' redundant.
Remove the unnecessary 'hdev' argument from 'hvfb_putmem'.
[ Backport to 6.6.y: Pass info->device through the target's
hvfb_release_phymem() helper and remove the now-redundant hdev
argument from each hvfb_putmem() call. ]

This is patch 1 of 2 in the ordered 6.6.y backport series.
This is the prerequisite needed for the CVE-2025-21976 backport. Makes
hvfb_putmem() derive the device from fb_info, which permits the following
fix to move framebuffer-memory release into fb_destroy() and honor
outstanding open references.
The fix is already present in 6.12.y, 6.18.y, and 7.2.y, but not in 6.6.y.
This fix also affects 6.1.y, which will need a separate backport; this
submission contains only the 6.6.y patch.
