Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] media: vimc: release vimc in release cb of v4l2_device
Date: Tue, 26 Nov 2019 13:08:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191126120822.11451-1-dafna.hirschfeld@collabora.com> (raw)

This patchset solves a crash that happens when unbinding the vimc
device while it is streaming. Currently when the device is unbounded
the vimc entities are released imidiettaly, this cause a crash
if the streaming thread or the capture device dereference them
after the release. The patchset solves this by deferring the release
to the release callback of v4l2_device. This ensures that
the vimc entities will be released after the last fh is closed
and so the streaming terminates before.

- The first patch replaces the usage of vimc_device.pdev.dev
with vimc.mdev.dev
- The second patch allocates the vimc_device dynamically.
This is needed since the release of the device is deferred
and might run after the device is initialized again.
- The third patch moves the release of the vimc_device
and all the vimc entities to the release callback of
v4l2_device.

Changes from v2:
in patch 3, in case of failure in the probe function the memory is released
directly from the probe function, and only on success path the release callback
of v4l2_device is assigned
