Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] drm/nouveau/clk: don't use the pstate cursor after the loop
Date: Sun, 12 Jul 2026 14:36:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260712123616.1180830-3-postadelmaga@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260712123616.1180830-1-postadelmaga@gmail.com>

nvkm_pstate_prog() walks clk->states looking for the entry at index
'pstatei' and then keeps using the list_for_each_entry cursor after the
loop.  This is not triggerable today: every caller clamps the index
against clk->state_nr before calling, so the loop always breaks on a real
entry.  It is safe by virtue of what the callers happen to do, not by
anything the function itself checks.

Should a caller ever pass an index that is not on the list, the cursor
would point at the list head rather than at a pstate, and the
pstate->base.domain[] and pstate->fanspeed accesses that follow would read
past it.  Rather than leave that trap in place for the next caller, track
whether the entry was found and return -EINVAL if it was not.

No functional change.
