Subject: [libdvben50221] stack leaks resources on non-MMI session reconnect
Date: Thu, 15 Jul 2010 15:20:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1279200014.14890.33.camel@stephan-laptop> (raw)


[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 868 bytes --]


The issue was, that LIBDVBEN50221 did not allow a CAM to re-establish
the session holding non-MMI resources if using the lowlevel interface.
The session_number was recorded on open, but not freed on close (which
IMO is an bug in the code, I attach the scaled down hg changeset). With
this change, the SMIT CAM with a showtime card works fine according to
tests so far.

The effect was, that the CAM tried to constantly close and re-open the
session and the LIBDVBEN50221 kept telling it, that the resource is
already allocated to a different session.  Additionally this caused the
library to use the _old_ session number in communications with the CAM,
which did not even exist anymore, so caused all writes of CA PMTs to
fail with EINTR.

Stephan

P.S. If there is a better place to report user-space library bugs for
linuxtv, please let me know.

Correctly free resources when a session is closed. This allows a CAM module to re-open a session.
