The display frame region information received from the vpu also contains the frame display index: info->index_frame_display. This index, being a s32, can be negative when a skip option is passed. In that case, its value is DECODED_IDX_FLAG_SKIP (-2). When disp_idx == -2, the following exception occurs: [ 1530.782246][ T1900] Hardware name: Texas Instruments AM62P5 SK (DT) [ 1530.788501][ T1900] pstate: a0400005 (NzCv daif +PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) [ 1530.796144][ T1900] pc : wave5_vpu_dec_get_output_info+0x300/0x308 [wave5] [ 1530.803060][ T1900] lr : wave5_vpu_dec_get_output_info+0x80/0x308 [wave5] [ 1530.809873][ T1900] sp : ffffffc00b85bc00 [ 1530.813872][ T1900] x29: ffffffc00b85bc00 x28: 0000000000000000 x27: 0000000000000001 [ 1530.821695][ T1900] x26: 00000000fffffffd x25: 00000000ffffffff x24: ffffff8812820000 [ 1530.829516][ T1900] x23: ffffff88199f7840 x22: ffffff8873f5e000 x21: ffffffc00b85bc58 [ 1530.837336][ T1900] x20: 0000000000000000 x19: ffffff88199f7920 x18: ffffffc00a899030 [ 1530.845156][ T1900] x17: 00000000529c6ef0 x16: 00000000529c6ef0 x15: 0000000000198487 [ 1530.852975][ T1900] x14: ffffffc009f2b650 x13: 0000000000058016 x12: 0000000005000000 [ 1530.860795][ T1900] x11: 0000000000000000 x10: 0000000000000000 x9 : 0000000000000000 [ 1530.868615][ T1900] x8 : 0000000000000000 x7 : 0000000000000000 x6 : 0000000000004086 [ 1530.876434][ T1900] x5 : 0000000000000001 x4 : ffffffc001454b94 x3 : ffffffc001454d94 [ 1530.884256][ T1900] x2 : ffffffc00b8201d0 x1 : 0000000000000020 x0 : 0000000000000000 [ 1530.892087][ T1900] Call trace: [ 1530.895225][ T1900] wave5_vpu_dec_get_output_info+0x300/0x308 [wave5] [ 1530.901788][ T1900] wave5_vpu_dec_finish_decode+0x6c/0x3dc [wave5] [ 1530.908081][ T1900] wave5_vpu_irq_thread+0x140/0x168 [wave5] [ 1530.913856][ T1900] irq_thread_fn+0x44/0xa4 [ 1530.918154][ T1900] irq_thread+0x15c/0x288 [ 1530.922330][ T1900] kthread+0x104/0x1d4 [ 1530.926247][ T1900] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 [ 1530.930520][ T1900] Code: 2a1f03ea 2a1f03eb 35ffef2c 17ffff74 (d42aa240) [ 1530.937296][ T1900] ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- [ 1530.942596][ T1900] Kernel panic - not syncing: BRK handler: Fatal exception [ 1530.949629][ T1900] SMP: stopping secondary CPUs [ 1530.954244][ T1900] Kernel Offset: disabled [ 1530.958415][ T1900] CPU features: 0x00,00000000,00800184,0000421b [ 1530.964496][ T1900] Memory Limit: none Move the disp_info assignment after testing that the index is positive to avoid the exception.
