Subject: [PATCH] rust: drm: gem: clean up GEM state in init failure case
Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2026 21:36:52 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260423-fix-gem-1-v1-1-e12e35f7bba9@nvidia.com> (raw)
Currently, if `drm_gem_object_init` fails, the object is freed without
any cleanup. Perform the cleanup in that case.
Signed-off-by: Eliot Courtney <ecourtney@nvidia.com>

I looked at `drm_gem_shmem_init` for an example, and it seems like the
correct cleanup here is to do `drm_gem_private_object_fini` if
`drm_gem_object_init` fails. Other C drivers do different things, but
looking at the implementation of `drm_gem_object_init`, this looks like
the only thing we need to clean up.
