The pad can be NULL if media controller routing is not set up correctly.
Check whether the pad is NULL before using it, otherwise it is possible
to achieve NULL pointer dereference.

Maybe dev_err() here instead?

Anyway:

That dev_dbg() is aligned with the prints in the rest of the function 
and it's not like kernel should do dev_err() into kernel log every time 
userspace does something wrong.

Hi Marek,

Thank you for the patch.

Could you share more information about how to misconfigure the routing ?

We usually use dev_dbg() for errors that can be easily triggered from
userspace, to avoid giving unpriviledged processes an easy way to flood
the kernel log.

The default configuration should be working one. I think that should
then be fixed too (in a separate patch).

When this call returns it will also report a dev_err "Failed to enable
pipe":

[   56.806321] mxc-isi 32e00000.isi: no pad connecxted to crossbar input 0
[   56.813655] mxc-isi 32e00000.isi: Failed to enable pipe 0

Personally - I'd make this print dev_err so the /reason/ we failed to
enable the pipe is also stated.

But I can confirm this is a bug and fairly easily trigged by attempting
to capture from the ISI through the libcamera simple pipeline handler,
which (I believe) does not do any route handling at present.

Which ever log level:

And this needs to go to stable, as this caused a null-pointer-deref for
me on a v6.6 tree.

I managed to reproduce the issue (I had to heavily hack libcamera, by
default it would reject incorrect configurations before triggering the
kernel bug). The default configuration of the crossbar switch is fine,
this patch is the right fix.

I'd like to expand the commit message with a clearer description of the
erronous configuration. Marek, are you fine with the following commit
message ?

--------
When translating source to sink streams in the crossbar subdev, the
driver tries to locate the remote subdev connected to the sink pad. The
remote pad may be NULL, if userspace tries to enable a stream that ends
at an unconnected crossbar sink. When that occurs, the driver
dereferences the NULL pad, leading to a crash.

Prevent the crash by checking if the pad is NULL before using it, and
return an error if it is.
--------

If so I'll update it locally, no need for a new version.

Actually, I think this should be fixed by catching the pipeline
misconfiguration at validation time, not when enabling streams. It would
make this patch redundant, but I think we can still merge it for
additional safety, especially as it may take more time to implement the
validation time check.
