Hi Niklas, Thanks for the patch.

Why do you need this? This is also not a bug, the documentation for the complete callback says: * @complete: All connections have been bound successfully. The complete * callback is only executed for the root notifier. Rather it would be better to get rid of this callback entirely, one reason being the impossibility of error handling. We won't be there for quite some time but extending its scope does go to the other direction. > > Fixes: 28a1295795d8 ("media: v4l: async: Allow multiple connections between entities") > Signed-off-by: Niklas Söderlund <niklas.soderlund+renesas@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > --- > drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-async.c | 68 ++++++++++++++++++++-------- > 1 file changed, 49 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-async.c b/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-async.c > index 3ec323bd528b..8b603527923c 100644 > --- a/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-async.c > +++ b/drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-async.c > @@ -176,15 +176,16 @@ static LIST_HEAD(notifier_list); > static DEFINE_MUTEX(list_lock); > > static struct v4l2_async_connection * > -v4l2_async_find_match(struct v4l2_async_notifier *notifier, > - struct v4l2_subdev *sd) > +__v4l2_async_find_in_list(struct v4l2_async_notifier *notifier, > + struct v4l2_subdev *sd, > + struct list_head *list) > { > bool (*match)(struct v4l2_async_notifier *notifier, > struct v4l2_subdev *sd, > struct v4l2_async_match_desc *match); > struct v4l2_async_connection *asc; > > - list_for_each_entry(asc, ¬ifier->waiting_list, asc_entry) { > + list_for_each_entry(asc, list, asc_entry) { > /* bus_type has been verified valid before */ > switch (asc->match.type) { > case V4L2_ASYNC_MATCH_TYPE_I2C: > @@ -207,6 +208,20 @@ v4l2_async_find_match(struct v4l2_async_notifier *notifier, > return NULL; > } > > +static struct v4l2_async_connection * > +v4l2_async_find_match(struct v4l2_async_notifier *notifier, > + struct v4l2_subdev *sd) > +{ > + return __v4l2_async_find_in_list(notifier, sd, ¬ifier->waiting_list); > +} > + > +static struct v4l2_async_connection * > +v4l2_async_find_done(struct v4l2_async_notifier *notifier, > + struct v4l2_subdev *sd) > +{ > + return __v4l2_async_find_in_list(notifier, sd, ¬ifier->done_list); > +} > + > /* Compare two async match descriptors for equivalence */ > static bool v4l2_async_match_equal(struct v4l2_async_match_desc *match1, > struct v4l2_async_match_desc *match2) > @@ -274,13 +289,14 @@ v4l2_async_nf_can_complete(struct v4l2_async_notifier *notifier) > } > > /* > - * Complete the master notifier if possible.
