This is totally broken, and here's why. Immediately before the above
are these lines:
[ 114.120099] ipu1_smfc0: stream ON
[ 114.234338] imx6-mipi-csi2: stream ON
[ 114.258187] imx6-mipi-csi2: ready, dphy version 0x3130302a
[ 114.263767] imx6-mipi-csi2: stream ON
[ 114.267495] ipu1_csi0: stream ON
At the "ipu1_smfc0" stream on message, smfc calls imx_smfc_start().
imx_smfc_start() asks for the ring:
/* ask the sink for the buffer ring */
ret = v4l2_subdev_call(priv->sink_sd, core, ioctl,
IMX_MEDIA_REQ_DMA_BUF_SINK_RING,
&priv->out_ring);
camif provides the ring:
static long camif_ioctl(struct v4l2_subdev *sd, unsigned int cmd, void *arg)
case IMX_MEDIA_REQ_DMA_BUF_SINK_RING:
if (!priv->in_ring)
return -EINVAL;
ring = (struct imx_media_dma_buf_ring **)arg;
*ring = priv->in_ring;
break;
So, smfc contains a copy of the pointer to camif's priv->in_ring.
Things continue, and we get to camif_buf_prepare():
static int camif_buf_prepare(struct vb2_buffer *vb)
{
...
if (!priv->in_ring) {
priv->in_ring = imx_media_alloc_dma_buf_ring(
priv->md, &priv->src_sd->entity, &priv->sd.entity,
sizeimage, vq->num_buffers, false);
if (IS_ERR(priv->in_ring)) {
v4l2_err(&priv->sd, "failed to alloc dma-buf ring\n");
ret = PTR_ERR(priv->in_ring);
priv->in_ring = NULL;
return ret;
}
}
Well, if we haven't setup priv->in_ring by now... is anything going to
work?
Then we do this:
ret = imx_media_dma_buf_queue_from_vb(priv->in_ring, vb);
if (ret)
goto free_ring;
return 0;
free_ring:
imx_media_free_dma_buf_ring(priv->in_ring);
priv->in_ring = NULL;
return ret;
and for whatever reason we end up falling out through free_ring. This
is VERY bad news, because it means that the ring which SMFC took a copy
of is now freed beneath its feet.
It doesn't matter if you later reallocate it, it could very well end up
with a different pointer from kmalloc().
SMFC continues along unknowing that its priv->out_ring is now invalid, and
it tries to use it as if it is still valid, leading to two things:
1. potentially stamping over memory that has been given to someone else
(possibly inodes, resulting in filesystem corruption should that
memory get written back to disk)
2. dereferencing pointers to other random memory leading to who-knows-what.
and that is _very_ bad.
This is way too serious a bug to justify any further testing.
So here endeth my interest in this driver until a new set of patches
appears for review. :p
