Subject: [PATCH 1/1] drm: use drm_warn() in validate_blend_mode_for_alpha_formats()
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2026 18:45:05 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260729214505.185776-2-leandro.ribeiro@collabora.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260729214505.185776-1-leandro.ribeiro@collabora.com>
Commit 860e748bddcc ("drm: ensure blend mode supported if pixel format
with alpha exposed") introduced a WARN() to let driver developers know
that a previously valid behavior should now be changed.
But WARN() should not be used for that, as it's a kernel warning report
mechanism for conditions that are not expected to happen. It also
produces a stack trace. Instead, a simple warning-level log message
should have been used, as drivers were expected to trigger the
condition.
This is causing problems for fuzzers, as they may stop when encountering
a "BUG:" or "WARNING:" in the logs.
Replace WARN() with drm_warn() in this function, avoiding these issues.
