In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix memory leak in dm_sw_fini()
After destroying dmub_srv, the memory associated with it is not freed, causing a memory leak:
unreferenced object 0xffff896302b45800 (size 1024): comm (udev-worker), pid 222, jiffies 4294894636 hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ……………. 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ……………. backtrace (crc 6265fd77): [] kmalloc_trace+0x29d/0x340 [] dm_dmub_sw_init+0xb4/0x450 [amdgpu] [] dm_sw_init+0x15/0x2b0 [amdgpu] [] amdgpu_device_init+0x1417/0x24e0 [amdgpu] [] amdgpu_driver_load_kms+0x15/0x190 [amdgpu] [] amdgpu_pci_probe+0x187/0x4e0 [amdgpu] [] local_pci_probe+0x3e/0x90 [] pci_device_probe+0xc3/0x230 [] really_probe+0xe2/0x480 [] __driver_probe_device+0x78/0x160 [] driver_probe_device+0x1f/0x90 [] __driver_attach+0xce/0x1c0 [] bus_for_each_dev+0x70/0xc0 [] bus_add_driver+0x112/0x210 [] driver_register+0x55/0x100 [] do_one_initcall+0x41/0x300
Fix this by freeing dmub_srv after destroying it.
