Subject: [PATCH v1 1/3] media: cedrus: Fix watchdog race condition
Date: Thu, 18 Aug 2022 16:33:06 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220818203308.439043-2-nicolas.dufresne@collabora.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220818203308.439043-1-nicolas.dufresne@collabora.com>
The watchdog needs to be schedule before we trigger the decode
operation, otherwise there is a risk that the decoder IRQ will be
called before we have schedule the watchdog. As a side effect, the
watchdog would never be cancelled and its function would be called
at an inappropriate time.
This was observed while running Fluster with GStreamer as a backend.
Some programming error would cause the decoder IRQ to be call very
quickly after the trigger. Later calls into the driver would deadlock
due to the unbalanced state.
