"Erases values of stream struct" is not helpful here, as that's just a direct read of what happens in the code. I'm guessing here, but how about: "Tear down all resources belonging to the pipeline when there are no longer any active streams being used. This includes stopping the active processing thread" But reading my text makes me worry about the ordering that might take place. The thread should be stopped as soon as the last stream using it is stopped. Presumably as the 'first thing' that happens to make sure there is no concurrent processing while the stream is being disabled. Hopefully there's no race condition ... > * > */ > static void vimc_streamer_pipeline_terminate(struct vimc_stream *stream) > { > struct vimc_ent_device *ved; > - struct v4l2_subdev *sd; > > while (stream->pipe_size) { > stream->pipe_size--; > ved = stream->ved_pipeline[stream->pipe_size]; > stream->ved_pipeline[stream->pipe_size] = NULL; > + } > > - if (!is_media_entity_v4l2_subdev(ved->ent)) > - continue; > + kthread_stop(stream->kthread); > + stream->kthread = NULL; > +} > > - sd = media_entity_to_v4l2_subdev(ved->ent); > - v4l2_subdev_call(sd, video, s_stream, 0); > +/** > + * vimc_streamer_stream_terminate - Disable stream in all ved in stream > + * > + * @ved: pointer to the ved for which stream needs to be disabled > + * > + * Calls s_stream to disable the stream in each entity of the stream > + * > + */ > +static void vimc_streamer_stream_terminate(struct vimc_ent_device *ved) I would call this vimc_streamer_stream_stop to match vimc_streamer_stream_start() rather than terminate... > +{ > + struct media_entity *entity = ved->ent; > + struct video_device *vdev; > + struct v4l2_subdev *sd; > + > + while (entity) { > + if (is_media_entity_v4l2_subdev(ved->ent)) { > + sd = media_entity_to_v4l2_subdev(ved->ent); > + v4l2_subdev_call(sd, video, s_stream, 0); > + } > + entity = vimc_get_source_entity(ved->ent); > + if (!entity) > + break; > + > + if (is_media_entity_v4l2_subdev(entity)) { > + sd = media_entity_to_v4l2_subdev(entity); > + ved = v4l2_get_subdevdata(sd); > + } else { > + vdev = container_of(entity, > + struct video_device, > + entity); > + ved = video_get_drvdata(vdev); > + } It looks like this is walking back through the linked graph, calling s_stream(0) right? I wonder if struct vimc_ent_device should have a pointer to the entity it's connected to, to simplify this. ... presumably this is done elsewhere too?
