Back in 2020 Guenter published a set of patches to fix some race conditions on UVC. https://lore.kernel.org/all/20200917022547.198090-5-linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx/ That kind of race conditions are not only seen on UVC, but are a common sin on almost all the kernel, so this is what it was decided back then that we should try to fix them at higher levels. After that. A lot of video_is_registered() were added to the core: ``` ribalda@alco:~/work/linux$ git grep is_registered drivers/media/v4l2-core/ drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-compat-ioctl32.c: if (!video_is_registered(vdev)) drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c: if (video_is_registered(vdev)) drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c: if (video_is_registered(vdev)) drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c: if (video_is_registered(vdev)) { drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c: if (video_is_registered(vdev)) drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c: if (!video_is_registered(vdev)) drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c: if (video_is_registered(vdev)) drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c: if (vdev == NULL || !video_is_registered(vdev)) { drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c: if (video_is_registered(vdev)) drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-dev.c: if (!vdev || !video_is_registered(vdev)) drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.c: if (!video_is_registered(vfd)) { drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-subdev.c: if (video_is_registered(vdev)) { ``` And recently Sakari is trying to land: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-media/20230201214535.347075-1-sakari.ailus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Which will make obsolete a lot of (all?) of the video_is_registered() checks on Guenter's patches. Besides those checks, there were some other valid races fixed on his patches. This series is just a rebase of what I think is missing on UVC even if we fixed v4l2/core with all the video_is_register() checks removed. I have tested the series with lockdep and a loop of authorize/de-authorize while steaming. Thanks!
