hello there,

Source code is


ÂÂÂ for (i = 0; i < dc->res_pool->pipe_count; i++) {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ if (res_ctx->pipe_ctx[i].stream) {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ pipe_ctx = &res_ctx->pipe_ctx[i];
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ *pipe_idx = i;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ break;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ }
ÂÂÂ }

Indeed something like

if (!pipe_ctx)
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ return false;

seems the right thing here.

Harry, Roman , your opinion ?

Andrey


ÂÂÂ /* Only supports eDP */
ÂÂÂ if (pipe_ctx->stream->sink->link->connector_signal != SIGNAL_TYPE_EDP)
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ return false;

Suggest add some code to deal with the case that the for loop doesn't find
what it is looking for and so pipe_ctx is NULL.
