A vpe_dev instance is allocated by the driver, and the memory for the vfd is a part of this struct. The v4l2 core, however, manages the removal of the vfd region, through the video_device's .release() op, which currently is the helper video_device_release. This causes memory corruption, and leads to issues when we try to re-insert the vpe module. Use the video_device_release_empty helper function instead Signed-off-by: Archit Taneja --- drivers/media/platform/ti-vpe/vpe.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/media/platform/ti-vpe/vpe.c b/drivers/media/platform/ti-vpe/vpe.c index 4243687..bb275f4 100644 --- a/drivers/media/platform/ti-vpe/vpe.c +++ b/drivers/media/platform/ti-vpe/vpe.c @@ -1998,7 +1998,7 @@ static struct video_device vpe_videodev = { .fops = &vpe_fops, .ioctl_ops = &vpe_ioctl_ops, .minor = -1, - .release = video_device_release, + .release = video_device_release_empty, .vfl_dir = VFL_DIR_M2M, }; -- 1.8.3.2
