VB2 will returning -ERESTARTSYS to userland

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I am working on V4L2 base videodecoder,
I have two threads say A and B. Thread A is for configuration and
Thread B for queuing/de-queuing buffers.

In one usecase,
- Thread B is blocked on VIDIOC_DQBUF,
- and at same time Thread A do the flush and do, STREAMOFF, QBUF, STREAMON.

Once thread A do this, Thread B waked up (as a result of STREAMOFF)
and return -ERESTARTSYS (from wait_interrupt_interruptible) from
DQBUF.

ERESTARTSYS is for kernel internal and should not be passed to
userside, and even ERESTARTSYS is not available at user side.

Shouldn't VB2 catch ERESTARTSYS and return -RESTART or some other error?

Thanks,
Chetan Nanda
