Series | [v3] media: vb2: Allow reqbufs(0) with "in use" MMAP buffers | expand |
Hi Philipp, Thank you for the patch.

While I agree that we should remove this restriction, it has helped me in the past to find missing munmap() in userspace. This patch thus has the potential of causing memory leaks in userspace.

I'd rephrase this: Note that if any buffers are still mapped or exported via DMABUF, then :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS` can only succeed if the ``V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_ORPHANED_BUFS`` capability is set. Otherwise :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS` will return the ``EBUSY`` error code. If ``V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_ORPHANED_BUFS`` is set, then these buffers are orphaned and will be freed when they are unmapped or when the exported DMABUF fds are closed. > +A ``count`` value of zero frees or orphans all buffers, after aborting or > +finishing any DMA in progress, an implicit > :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF <VIDIOC_STREAMON>`. > > > @@ -132,6 +135,12 @@ any DMA in progress, an implicit > * - ``V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_REQUESTS`` > - 0x00000008 > - This buffer type supports :ref:`requests <media-request-api>`. > + * - ``V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_ORPHANED_BUFS`` > + - 0x00000010 > + - The kernel allows calling :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS` with a ``count`` value > + of zero while buffers are still mapped or exported via DMABUF. These Not quite true. This isn't related to the count value, so just drop the 'with a ``count`` value of zero' part of the sentence.
