To briefly summarize the issues reported by syzbot, there are two task call
stacks
as follows:
Task A Task B
------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
drm_atomic_nonblocking_commit drm_atomic_commit
drm_atomic_helper_commit drm_atomic_helper_commit
commit_work
commit_tail
drm_atomic_helper_commit_tail commit_tail
drm_atomic_helper_commit_tail
drm_client_modeset_commit_atomic
drm_atomic_state_default_clear
drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_vblanks
When two prerequisites are met simultaneously, the current issue will be
triggered:
1. There is an overlap in the memory range occupied by the crtcs member set
contained
in the instance state of "struct drm_atomic_state" created by Task A and
Task B
2. The context of drm_atomic_helper_commit_tail() has no lock protection,
resulting
in the instance state->crtcs sub item being released by other task
The solution is to add a lock in drm_atomic_helper_commit_tail() to ensure that
there is no other task interference when accessing the instance state.
