This is an automatic generated email to let you know that the following patch were queued at the http://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git tree: Subject: [media] Revert "[media] videobuf_vm_{open,close} race fixes" Author: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jan 3 08:10:49 2014 -0300 This reverts commit a242f426108c284049a69710f871cc9f11b13e61. That commit actually caused deadlocks, rather then fixing them. If ext_lock is set to NULL (otherwise videobuf_queue_lock doesn't do anything), then you get this deadlock: The driver's mmap function calls videobuf_mmap_mapper which calls videobuf_queue_lock on q. videobuf_mmap_mapper calls __videobuf_mmap_mapper, __videobuf_mmap_mapper calls videobuf_vm_open and videobuf_vm_open calls videobuf_queue_lock on q (introduced by above patch): deadlocked. This affects drivers using dma-contig and dma-vmalloc. Only dma-sg is not affected since it doesn't call videobuf_vm_open from __videobuf_mmap_mapper. Most drivers these days have a non-NULL ext_lock. Those that still use NULL there are all fairly obscure drivers, which is why this hasn't been seen earlier. Since everything worked perfectly fine for many years I prefer to just revert this patch rather than trying to fix it. videobuf is quite fragile and I rather not touch it too much. Work is (slowly) progressing to move everything over to vb2 or at the very least use non-NULL ext_lock in videobuf.
