Make 'file_priv' NULL upon freeing and add a check before dereferencing to avoid the following errors: drivers/gpu/drm/exynos/exynos_drm_drv.c:182 exynos_drm_open() error: double free of 'file_priv' drivers/gpu/drm/exynos/exynos_drm_drv.c:188 exynos_drm_open() error: dereferencing freed memory 'file_priv'

Thanks you for patch but it would better to just return error at here. Actually I missed it. So could you correct and re-post it like below?
ret = exynos_drm_subdrv_open(dev, file); if (ret) { kfree(file_priv); file->driver_priv = NULL; return ret; <- add this line. } ... if (IS_ERR(anon_filp)) { kfree(file_priv); file->driver_priv = NULL; <- add this line. return PTR_ERR(anon_filp); }
Or, you can do more cleanup using "goto" to avoid duplicated codes, kfree(file_priv) and file->driver_prive = NULL.
Thanks, Inki Dae
