From: Peter Ujfalusi <peter.ujfalusi@xxxxxxxxx> If the dma_alloc_noncontiguous() fails in snd_dma_noncontig_alloc() we are taking a fallback path which should be taken into account on the free path since the way to free the two type of allocations are not the same. Fixes: 925ca893b4a6 ("ALSA: memalloc: Add fallback SG-buffer allocations for x86") Signed-off-by: Peter Ujfalusi <peter.ujfalusi@xxxxxxxxx> --- Hi Takashi, I'm not sure about thisa as I can not get my systems to use the fallback, but in theory this shiuld be done, no? Since you have introduced the fallback, I believe there are cases when it is taken and it might be related to some strange memory allocation errors happening in SOF during firmware loading, like: https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/issues/3609 https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/issues/3584 https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/issues/3530 Regards, Peter sound/core/memalloc.c | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) diff --git a/sound/core/memalloc.c b/sound/core/memalloc.c index 15dc7160ba34..475fd38a4a48 100644 --- a/sound/core/memalloc.c +++ b/sound/core/memalloc.c @@ -537,6 +537,13 @@ static void *snd_dma_noncontig_alloc(struct snd_dma_buffer *dmab, size_t size) static void snd_dma_noncontig_free(struct snd_dma_buffer *dmab) { + if (dmab->dev.type == SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_DEV_WC_SG_FALLBACK || + dmab->dev.type == SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_DEV_SG_FALLBACK) { + /* The allocation is done with a fallback, use the matching free */ + snd_dma_sg_fallback_free(dmab); + return; + } + dma_vunmap_noncontiguous(dmab->dev.dev, dmab->area); dma_free_noncontiguous(dmab->dev.dev, dmab->bytes, dmab->private_data, dmab->dev.dir); -- 2.36.0
