Subject: [PATCH 59/70] drm/amd/display: set new_stream to NULL after release
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2026 21:38:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260715134432.1975118-60-Wayne.Lin@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260715134432.1975118-1-Wayne.Lin@amd.com>

From: WenTao Liang <vulab@iscas.ac.cn>

In dm_update_crtc_state(), the skip_modeset path releases new_stream
via dc_stream_release() but does not set the pointer to NULL.

If a later error (e.g., color management failure) triggers the fail
label, the error path calls dc_stream_release() again on the same
dangling pointer, causing a double release and potential use-after-free.

Fix this by setting new_stream to NULL after the initial release.

Fixes: 9b690ef3c7042 ("drm/amd/display: Avoid full modeset when not required")
