From ad608fbcf166fec809e402d548761768f602702c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sakari Ailus Date: Tue, 11 Sep 2018 05:32:37 -0400 Subject: media: v4l: event: Prevent freeing event subscriptions while accessed The event subscriptions are added to the subscribed event list while holding a spinlock, but that lock is subsequently released while still accessing the subscription object. This makes it possible to unsubscribe the event --- and freeing the subscription object's memory --- while the subscription object is simultaneously accessed. Prevent this by adding a mutex to serialise the event subscription and unsubscription. This also gives a guarantee to the callback ops that the add op has returned before the del op is called. This change also results in making the elems field less special: subscriptions are only added to the event list once they are fully initialised.
