This patch set includes two instances where the list iterator variable 'pstate' is implicitly assumed to be valid after the iterator loop. While in pratice that is most likely the case (if 'pstatei'/'args->v0.state' is <= the elements in clk->states), we should explicitly only allow 'pstate' to always point to correct 'nvkm_pstate' structs. That allows catching potential bugs with BUG_ON(!pstate) that otherwise would be completely undetectable. It also helps the greater mission to hopefully move the list iterator variable into the iterating macro directly [1].

Actually hm, dim is warning me about this and making me realize there's probably a better way to handle this, going to revoke the previous r-b I gave and respond inline On Tue, 2023-03-07 at 17:43 -0500, Lyude Paul wrote: > Reviewed-by: Lyude Paul <lyude@redhat.com> > > Will push upstream in just a moment > > On Wed, 2023-03-01 at 18:25 +0100, Jakob Koschel wrote: > > This patch set includes two instances where the list iterator variable > > 'pstate' is implicitly assumed to be valid after the iterator loop. > > While in pratice that is most likely the case (if > > 'pstatei'/'args->v0.state' is <= the elements in clk->states), we should > > explicitly only allow 'pstate' to always point to correct 'nvkm_pstate' > > structs. > > > > That allows catching potential bugs with BUG_ON(!pstate) that otherwise > > would be completely undetectable. > > > > It also helps the greater mission to hopefully move the list iterator > > variable into the iterating macro directly [1]. > > > > Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=wgRr_D8CB-D9Kg-c=EHreAsk5SqXPwr9Y7k9sA6cWXJ6w@mail.gmail.com/ [1] > > Signed-off-by: Jakob Koschel <jkl820.git@gmail.com> > > --- > > Jakob Koschel (2): > > drm/nouveau/device: avoid usage of list iterator after loop > > drm/nouveau/clk: avoid usage of list iterator after loop > > > > drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/engine/device/ctrl.c | 9 ++++++--- > > drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/clk/base.c | 9 ++++++--- > > 2 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) > > --- > > base-commit: c0927a7a5391f7d8e593e5e50ead7505a23cadf9 > > change-id: 20230301-drm-nouveau-avoid-iter-after-loop-4bff97166efa > > > > Best regards, > -- Cheers, Lyude Paul (she/her) Software Engineer at Red Hat
