Subject: Claude review: drm/atomic: Add error_code element in atomic_state
Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2026 16:31:47 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <review-patch2-20260210-atomic-v9-2-525c88fd2402@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260210-atomic-v9-2-525c88fd2402@intel.com>
Patch Review
**Issues:**
```c
+void drm_mode_atomic_add_error_msg(struct drm_mode_atomic_err_code *err_code,
+ __u64 failure_code, const char *format, ...)
+{
+ struct drm_atomic_state *state = container_of(err_code,
+ struct drm_atomic_state,
+ error_code);
```
- **Questionable Design**: Using `container_of` to get back to `drm_atomic_state` is fragile. Why not pass `state` directly?
```c
+ va_list varg;
+ char *failure_string;
+
+ err_code->failure_code = failure_code;
+
+ va_start(varg, format);
+ failure_string = kvasprintf(GFP_ATOMIC, format, varg);
```
- **Memory Leak**: `failure_string` is allocated with `kvasprintf` but never freed
- **NULL Check Missing**: `kvasprintf` can return NULL, not checked before use
- **GFP_ATOMIC**: Why GFP_ATOMIC? The ioctl path should allow GFP_KERNEL
```c
+ drm_dbg_atomic(state->dev, "Commit failed: %s\n", failure_string);
+ strscpy_pad(err_code->failure_string, failure_string,
+ sizeof(err_code->failure_string));
+ va_end(varg);
+}
```
- **Use After Free Potential**: If `failure_string` is NULL (allocation failed), this crashes
- **Missing kfree**: Memory leak confirmed
