This series implement Hans's RFC: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg244455.html To summarize Hans's proposal it is needed to distinguish two cases: - the minimal number of buffers to be allocated when calling VIDIOC_REQBUFS. - the minimale number of queued buffers before start streaming. Until now drivers use vb2_queue min_buffers_needed field in the both cases but before introduce delete buffers we need to clarify for which usage each of them use min_buffers_needed field. The branch with all patches is here: https://gitlab.collabora.com/benjamin.gaignard/for-upstream/-/commits/clean_min_need_buffers_v3 I have tested with this command line, I haven't notice issues: ./test-media -kmemleak mc changes in version 3: - Just rename min_buffers_needed into min_queued_buffers everywhere without trying to fix the drivers. - Introduce min_reqbufs_allocation field to be used when calling VIDIOC_REQBUFS. changes in version 2: - change min_buffers_needed into min_queues_buffers instead of min_dma_buffers_needed - patches order - only one patch to rename min_buffers_needed into min_queues_buffers.
