Subject: [PATCH] drm/radeon/kms/agp The wrong AGP chipset can cause a NULL pointer dereference
Date: Sat, 24 Apr 2010 01:18:13 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100424001813.GA5641@localhost> (raw)
Selecting the wrong or no CONFIG_AGP_* chipset can cause a NULL pointer
dereference when combined with CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS and an old system
with a R100 AGP card (should effect other cards too). The agp field
will be set to NULL if no suitable AGP chipset driver is loaded,
drm_agp_acquire already preforms a suitable NULL check so it can be used
directly.
