[Patch v2] media: ti-vpe: cal: fix a kernel oops when unloading module

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



After the switch to use v4l2_async_notifier_add_subdev() and
v4l2_async_notifier_cleanup(), unloading the ti_cal module would casue a
kernel oops.

This was root cause to the fact that v4l2_async_notifier_cleanup() tries
to kfree the asd pointer passed into v4l2_async_notifier_add_subdev().

In our case the asd reference was from a statically allocated struct.
So in effect v4l2_async_notifier_cleanup() was trying to free a pointer
that was not kalloc.

So here we switch to using a kzalloc struct instead of a static one.
To acheive this we re-order some of the calls to prevent asd allocation
from leaking.

Fixes: d079f94c9046 ("media: platform: Switch to v4l2_async_notifier_add_subdev")
