Commit Message

Benjamin Gaignard Oct. 31, 2023, 4:30 p.m. UTC
This patch adds 2 helpers functions to add and remove vb2 buffers
from a queue. With these 2 and vb2_get_buffer(), bufs field of
struct vb2_queue becomes like a private member of the structure.

After each call to vb2_get_buffer() we need to be sure that we get
a valid pointer in preparation for when buffers can be deleted.

nit: Would it make sense to also ensure that vb->vb2_queue is NULL?

Is this a leftover from earlier revisions? I think it shouldn't be
needed anymore after the previous patch which changed the function to
get vb as an argument.

Since vb->vb2_queue and q->bufs[index] are always set and clear in the same
functions I don't think it is useful to test the both here.

You are right I will fix it.

Well, they are if the caller is not buggy. But I suppose the check is
to detect buggy callers?

For example, an m2m driver could accidentally call this on a buffer
that was already added to another queue.
