Hi Tomi,

I know this driver is already merged, but while checking for drivers that use
q->max_num_buffers I stumbled on this cfe code:

<snip>

+/*
+ * vb2 ops

+
+static int cfe_queue_setup(struct vb2_queue *vq, unsigned int *nbuffers,
+			   unsigned int *nplanes, unsigned int sizes[],
+			   struct device *alloc_devs[])
+{
+	struct cfe_node *node = vb2_get_drv_priv(vq);
+	struct cfe_device *cfe = node->cfe;
+	unsigned int size = is_image_node(node) ?
+				    node->vid_fmt.fmt.pix.sizeimage :
+				    node->meta_fmt.fmt.meta.buffersize;
+
+	cfe_dbg(cfe, "%s: [%s] type:%u\n", __func__, node_desc[node->id].name,
+		node->buffer_queue.type);
+
+	if (vq->max_num_buffers + *nbuffers < 3)
+		*nbuffers = 3 - vq->max_num_buffers;

This makes no sense: max_num_buffers is 32, unless explicitly set when vb2_queue_init
is called. So 32 + *nbuffers is never < 3.

If the idea is that at least 3 buffers should be allocated by REQBUFS, then set
q->min_reqbufs_allocation = 3; before calling vb2_queue_init and vb2 will handle this
for you.

Drivers shouldn't modify *nbuffers, except in very rare circumstances, especially
since the code is almost always wrong.

Indeed, the code doesn't make sense. I have to say I don't know what was the intent here, but I think "at least 3 buffers should be allocated by REQBUFS" is the likely explanation.

I think the hardware should work with even just a single buffer, so is it then fine to not set either q->min_queued_buffers nor q->min_reqbufs_allocation before calling vb2_queue_init()? This seems to result in REQBUFS giving at least two buffers.
