Hello, This patch is to modify media_device_request_alloc() so that it can pass CFI(Control Flow Integrity) check. I would like some review comments. media_device_request_alloc() is saved in fn of media_ioctl_info struct, which is defined as long (*fn)(struct media_device *dev, void *arg). The type of the second parameter of media_device_request_alloc() is int* now, but it is void* in fn of media_ioctl_info. We got some ABI violation here. Therefore, we would like to use void* instead of int* for the second parameter of media_device_request_alloc(). static long media_device_request_alloc(struct media_device *mdev, int *alloc_fd); struct media_ioctl_info { unsigned int cmd; unsigned short flags; long (*fn)(struct media_device *dev, void *arg); long (*arg_from_user)(void *karg, void __user *uarg, unsigned int cmd); long (*arg_to_user)(void __user *uarg, void *karg, unsigned int cmd); }; Here is an example. With Android’s CFI checking, we got the following error without this change.
