From: Xin Xiong xiongx18@fudan.edu.cn Date: Sun, 19 Jul 2020 23:45:45 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] drm: fix drm_dp_mst_port refcount leaks in drm_dp_mst_allocate_vcpi MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
drm_dp_mst_allocate_vcpi() invokes drm_dp_mst_topology_get_port_validated(), which increases the refcount of the "port".
These reference counting issues take place in two exception handling paths separately. Either when “slots” is less than 0 or when drm_dp_init_vcpi() returns a negative value, the function forgets to reduce the refcnt increased drm_dp_mst_topology_get_port_validated(), which results in a refcount leak.
Fix these issues by pulling up the error handling when "slots" is less than 0, and calling drm_dp_mst_topology_put_port() before termination when drm_dp_init_vcpi() returns a negative value.
