    [media] vb2: Push mmap_sem down to memops · 0f6e2825
    Jan Kara 提交于
    Currently vb2 core acquires mmap_sem just around call to
    __qbuf_userptr(). However since commit f035eb4e (videobuf2: fix
    lockdep warning) it isn't necessary to acquire it so early as we no
    longer have to drop queue mutex before acquiring mmap_sem. So push
    acquisition of mmap_sem down into .get_userptr memop so that the
    semaphore is acquired for a shorter time and it is clearer what it is
    needed for.
    
    Note that we also need mmap_sem in .put_userptr memop since that ends up
    calling vb2_put_vma() which calls vma->vm_ops->close() which should be
    called with mmap_sem held. However we didn't hold mmap_sem in some code
    paths anyway (e.g. when called via vb2_ioctl_reqbufs() ->
    __vb2_queue_free() -> vb2_dma_sg_put_userptr()) and getting mmap_sem in
    put_userptr() introduces a lock inversion with queue->mmap_lock in the
    above mentioned call path.
    
    Luckily this whole locking mess will get resolved once we convert
    videobuf2 core to the new mm helper which avoids the need for mmap_sem
    in .put_userptr memop altogether.
