[PATCH] drm: bridge: anx7625: don't crash if Type-C port is not used

From: Dmitry Baryshkov

Date: Sat Feb 14 2026 - 20:30:24 EST


From: Loic Poulain <loic.poulain@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The typec_set_*() functions do not tolerate being passed the NULL
typec_port instance. However, if CONFIG_TYPEC is enabled, but anx7625
DT node doesn't have the usb-c connector fwnode, then typec_port remains
NULL, crashing the kernel. Prevent calling typec_set_foo() functions by
checking that ctx->typec_port is not NULL in anx7625_typec_set_status().

Call trace:
typec_set_orientation+0x18/0x68 (P)
anx7625_typec_set_status+0x108/0x13c
