> Just a generic note about videobuf2: videobuf2-dma-sg is ignoring vm_pgoff by design. vm_pgoff is used as a 'cookie' to select a buffer to mmap and videobuf2-core already checks that. If userspace provides an offset, which doesn't match any of the registered 'cookies' (reported to userspace via separate v4l2 ioctl), an error is returned.
Ok, it means once the buf is selected, videobuf2-dma-sg should always
mapped buf->pages[i]
from index 0 ( irrespective of vm_pgoff value). So although we are
replacing the code with
vm_insert_range_buggy(), *_buggy* suffix will mislead others and
should not be used.
And if we replace this code with vm_insert_range(), this will
introduce bug for *non zero*
value of vm_pgoff.
Please correct me if my understanding is wrong.
So what your opinion about this patch ? Shall I drop this patch from
current series ?
or,
There is any better way to handle this scenario ?

It is not gem_mmap_obj(), it should be vb2_dma_sg_mmap().
Sorry about it.
What about this issue ? Does it looks like a valid issue ?
