Dear Dan,
Your mail flashes back to my memory 5 years ago.
Back then, I had cleaned up the exynos driver.
And the replacement IS_ERR was one of items.
IMHO it is still better to modify those two functions,
drm_gem_cma_prime_get_sg_table and xen_drm_front_gem_get_sg_table.
Thank you.
Best regards YJ

Hello YoungJun Cho,
The patch 7e3d88f9cce3: "drm/prime: replace NULL with error value in
drm_prime_pages_to_sg" from Jun 24, 2013, leads to the following
static checker warning:
drivers/gpu/drm/drm_prime.c:317 drm_gem_map_dma_buf()
warn: 'sgt' can also be NULL
drivers/gpu/drm/drm_prime.c
307 /*
308 * two mappings with different directions for the
same attachment are
309 * not allowed
310 */
311 if (WARN_ON(prime_attach->dir != DMA_NONE))
312 return ERR_PTR(-EBUSY);
313
314 sgt = obj->dev->driver->gem_prime_get_sg_table(obj);
The problematic functions here are
drm_gem_cma_prime_get_sg_table() and
xen_drm_front_gem_get_sg_table(). My preference would be to update
those functions to return error pointers, but I'm not familiar
with the
code or able to test it.
I believe it is safe to change the return value to error pointer:
the code below (which is the only caller of .gem_prime_get_sg_table
callback) does not check for NULL anyways
Dan, do you want me to send the patch for Xen or you prefer to post both
Xen and CMA helpers fix yourself?
But this static checker test seems pretty good so I'm likely to
publish
it soon and then this sort of bug will normally be caught quickly.

316 if (!IS_ERR(sgt)) {
317 if (!dma_map_sg_attrs(attach->dev,
sgt->sgl, sgt->nents, dir,
318 DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC)) {
319 sg_free_table(sgt);
320 kfree(sgt);
321 sgt = ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
322 } else {
323 prime_attach->sgt = sgt;
324 prime_attach->dir = dir;
325 }
326 }
327
328 return sgt;

dan carpenter
