Geert reports that the following NULL pointer dereference happens for him
after commit 49d7d581ceaf ("drm/ssd130x: Don't allocate buffers on each

The problem is that fbcon calls fbcon_init() which triggers a DRM modeset
and this leads to drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes() attempting to commit
the atomic state for all planes, even the ones whose CRTC is not enabled.
Since the primary plane buffer is allocated in the encoder .atomic_enable
callback, this happens after that initial modeset commit and leads to the
mentioned NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by not using the default drm_atomic_helper_commit_tail() helper,
but instead the drm_atomic_helper_commit_tail_rpm() function that doesn't
attempt to commit the atomic state for planes related to inactive CRTCs.

The docs say this is intended for drivers that support runtime_pm or
need the CRTC to be enabled to perform a commit. Might be worthwhile
to add basic Runtime PM, so the I2C controller can go to sleep when
the display is not used.

Indeed, I thought the same. But I believe we can do that as a follow-up patch.

Note that actually two buffers are involved: data_array (monochrome,
needed for each update), and buffer (R8, only needed when converting
from XR24 to R1).
For the former, I agree, as it's always needed.
For the latter, I'm afraid it would set a bad example: while allocating
a possibly-unused buffer doesn't hurt for small displays, it would
mean wasting 1 MiB in e.g. the repaper driver (once it has gained
support for R1 ;^).

After some discussion on IRC, I'd suggest to allocate the buffer
somewhere within probe. So it will always be there when the plane code runs.
A full fix would be to allocate the buffer memory as part of the plane
state and/or the plane's atomic_check. That's a bit more complicated if
you want to shared the buffer memory across plane updates.

Yes, that's also what Geert suggested so I'll just do that. And also make
it a dev managed resource.

I don't think is worth the complexity, allocating it on probe and released
when the device is unbound from the driver should be enough as Geert said.

Maybe another option is to allocate on the struct drm_mode_config_funcs
.fb_create callback? That way, we can get the mode_cmd->pixel_format and
determine if only "data_array" buffer must be allocated or also "buffer".

Something like the following patch:

Subject: [PATCH v2] drm/ssd130x: Fix an oops when attempting to update a
disabled plane
Geert reports that the following NULL pointer dereference happens for him
after commit 49d7d581ceaf ("drm/ssd130x: Don't allocate buffers on each
plane update"):
[drm] Initialized ssd130x 1.0.0 20220131 for 0-003c on minor 0
ssd130x-i2c 0-003c: [drm] surface width(128), height(32), bpp(1)
and format(R1 little-endian (0x20203152))
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000

The problem is that fbcon calls fbcon_init() which triggers a DRM modeset
and this leads to drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes() attempting to commit
the atomic state for all planes, even the ones whose CRTC is not enabled.
Since the primary plane buffer is allocated in the encoder .atomic_enable
callback, this happens after that initial modeset commit and leads to the
mentioned NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by allocating the buffers in the struct drm_mode_config_funcs
.fb_create, instead of doing it when the encoder is enabled.
Also, make a couple of improvements to the ssd130x_buf_alloc() function:
* Make the allocation smarter to only allocate the intermediate buffer
if the native R1 format is not used. Otherwise is not needed, since
there is no XRGB8888 to R1 format conversion during plane updates.
* Allocate the buffers as device managed resources, this is enough and
simplifies the logic since there is no need to explicitly free them.

Changes in v2:
- Move the buffers allocation to .fb_create instead of preventing atomic
updates for disable planes.
- Don't allocate the intermediate buffer when using the native R1 format.
- Allocate buffers as device managed resources.

Let me explain: a real DRM-ideomatic solution would allocate the
required buffers at the correct size in the plane's atomic check. The
pointer would be stored in the plane state and later be free'd as part
of releasing that plane_state. But as this is temporary memory for the
plane update, so it can be shared among plane states. Keeping track of
the references requires a bit of work though.
Repaper appears to allocate buffer memory on each update, so anything is
an improvement there.

This should check if the buffer was allocated before.
Else an application creating two or more frame buffers will keep
on allocating new buffers. The same is true for fbdev emulation vs.
a userspace application.

Same here.

And you still need the data_array buffer for clearing the screen,
which is not tied to the creation of a frame buffer, I think?

Yes, you are correct.

It is indeed. I forgot about that. So what I would do for now is just to
allocate the two unconditionally and then we can optimize as a follow-up.
But also, this v2 is not correct because as I mentioned the device and
drm_device lifecycles are not the same and the kernel crashes on poweroff:

Sima also suggested to make the allocation in the plane .prepare_fb, I
think that the better place is .begin_fb_access for allocation and the
.end_fb_access for free.
Updated patch below and this is the one that I'm more comfortable now
as a solution:

Subject: [PATCH v3] drm/ssd130x: Fix an oops when attempting to update a
disabled plane
Geert reports that the following NULL pointer dereference happens for him
after commit 49d7d581ceaf ("drm/ssd130x: Don't allocate buffers on each
plane update"):
[drm] Initialized ssd130x 1.0.0 20220131 for 0-003c on minor 0
ssd130x-i2c 0-003c: [drm] surface width(128), height(32), bpp(1)
and format(R1 little-endian (0x20203152))

The problem is that fbcon calls fbcon_init() which triggers a DRM modeset
and this leads to drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes() attempting to commit
the atomic state for all planes, even the ones whose CRTC is not enabled.
Since the primary plane buffer is allocated in the encoder .atomic_enable
callback, this happens after that initial modeset commit and leads to the
mentioned NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by allocating the buffers in the struct drm_plane_helper_funcs
.begin_fb_access callback and free them in to .end_fb_access callback,
instead of doing it when the encoder is enabled.
Fixes: commit 49d7d581ceaf ("drm/ssd130x: Don't allocate buffers on each plane update")

Changes in v3:
- Move the buffers allocation to the plane helper funcs .begin_fb_access
and the free to .end_fb_access callbacks.
- Always allocate intermediate buffer because is use in ssd130x_clear_screen().
- Don't allocate the buffers as device managed resources.
Changes in v2:
- Move the buffers allocation to .fb_create instead of preventing atomic
updates for disable planes.
- Don't allocate the intermediate buffer when using the native R1 format.
- Allocate buffers as device managed resources.
