[PATCH 5.14 103/151] drm/nouveau: avoid a use-after-free when BO init fails

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Oct 11 2021 - 10:10:05 EST


From: Jeremy Cline <jcline@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit bcf34aa5082ee2343574bc3f4d1c126030913e54 ]

nouveau_bo_init() is backed by ttm_bo_init() and ferries its return code
back to the caller. On failures, ttm_bo_init() invokes the provided
destructor which should de-initialize and free the memory.

Thus, when nouveau_bo_init() returns an error the gem object has already
been released and the memory freed by nouveau_bo_del_ttm().

Fixes: 019cbd4a4feb ("drm/nouveau: Initialize GEM object before TTM object")
