There are three areas where we dereference struct drm_master without
checking if the pointer is non-NULL.

1. drm_getmagic is called from the ioctl_handler. Since
DRM_IOCTL_GET_MAGIC has no ioctl flags, drm_getmagic is run without
any check that drm_file.master has been set.

2. Similarly, drm_getunique is called from the ioctl_handler, but
DRM_IOCTL_GET_UNIQUE has no ioctl flags. So there is no guarantee that
drm_file.master has been set.

I think the above two are impossible, due to the refcounting rules for
struct file.


Right, will drop those two parts from the patch.

3. drm_master_release can also be called without having a
drm_file.master set. Here is one error path:
drm_open():
drm_open_helper():
drm_master_open():
drm_new_set_master(); <--- returns -ENOMEM,
drm_file.master not set
drm_file_free():
drm_master_release(); <--- NULL ptr dereference
(file_priv->master->magic_map)

Fix these by checking if the master pointers are NULL before use.

This is a bit convoluted, since we're in the single-threaded release path
we don't need any locking for file_priv related things. Therefore we can
pull the master check out and just directly return.

But since it's a bit surprising maybe a comment that this can happen when
drm_master_open in drm_open_helper fails?


Sounds good. This can actually also happen in the failure path of
mock_drm_getfile if anon_inode_getfile fails. I'll leave a short note
about both of them.

Another option, and maybe cleaner, would be to move the drm_master_release
from drm_file_free into drm_close_helper. That would be fully symmetrical
and should also fix the bug here?
-Daniel

Hmmm maybe the first option to move the check out of the lock might be
better. If I'm not wrong, we would otherwise also need to move
drm_master_release into drm_client_close.

Do we have to?

If I haven't missed anything, the drm_client stuff only calls
drm_file_alloc and doesn't set up a master. So this should work?
-Daniel


Ahhhh ok yes, I understand what's going on better now. I think you're right, moving drm_master_release into drm_close_helper should fix all the places it can go wrong.
