[media] media: vb2: Fix potential deadlock in vb2_prepare_buffer
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Commit b037c0f ("media: vb2: fix
potential deadlock in mmap vs. get_userptr handling") fixes an AB-BA
deadlock related to the mmap_sem and driver locks. The same deadlock can
occur in vb2_prepare_buffer(), fix it the same way.

/*
* In case of user pointer buffers vb2 allocator needs to get direct
* access to userspace pages. This requires getting read access on
* mmap semaphore in the current process structure. The same
* semaphore is taken before calling mmap operation, while both mmap
* and prepare_buf are called by the driver or v4l2 core with driver's
* lock held. To avoid a AB-BA deadlock (mmap_sem then driver's lock in
* mmap and driver's lock then mmap_sem in prepare_buf) the videobuf2
* core release driver's lock, takes mmap_sem and then takes again
* driver's lock.
*
* To avoid race with other vb2 calls, which might be called after
* releasing driver's lock, this operation is performed at the
* beggining of prepare_buf processing. This way the queue status is
* consistent after getting driver's lock back.
