Subject: [PATCH v2] ASoC: dapm: Add a dummy snd_pcm_runtime to avoid NULL pointer access
Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2016 14:55:51 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1469570151-11825-1-git-send-email-nicoleotsuka@gmail.com> (raw)

The SND_SOC_DAPM_PRE_PMU case would call startup()/hw_params() that
might access substream->runtime through other functions.

For example:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
[....]
PC is at snd_pcm_hw_rule_add+0x24/0x1b0
LR is at snd_pcm_hw_constraint_list+0x20/0x28
[....]
Process arecord (pid: 424, stack limit = 0xffffffc1ecaf0020)
Call trace:

---[ end trace 0dc4f99c2759c35c ]---

So this patch adds a dummy runtime for the original dummy substream
to merely avoid the NULL pointer access.

Changelog:
v1->v2
 * Allocate the runtime from heap instead of stack due to limitation
   of the stack sizes on different platforms.
