Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the v4l-dvb-next tree

Hi all,

After merging the v4l-dvb-next tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

drivers/media/pci/intel/ipu6/ipu6.c: In function 'request_cpd_fw':
drivers/media/pci/intel/ipu6/ipu6.c:529:21: error: implicit declaration of function 'vmalloc'; did you mean 'kvmalloc'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
529 | dst->data = vmalloc(fw->size);
| ^~~~~~~
| kvmalloc
drivers/media/pci/intel/ipu6/ipu6.c:529:19: error: assignment to 'const u8 *' {aka 'const unsigned char *'} from 'int' makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Werror=int-conversion]
529 | dst->data = vmalloc(fw->size);
| ^
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Caused by commit

25fedc021985 ("media: intel/ipu6: add Intel IPU6 PCI device driver")

I have used the vl4-dvb-next tree from next-20240430 for today.

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] media: ipu6: Fix vmalloc memory allocation

The driver was calling vmalloc() to allocate memory, something which isn't
available except when particular Kconfig settings are enabled.

Use kvmalloc() instead.

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for reporting this. I'm a bit surprised this wasn't catched
earlier. But it seems vmalloc() is defined in some configuration.

Where are you freeing it? If I understood the code right, you're storing
dst at isp->cpd_fw, but I can't see any code freeing it nor cpw_fw->data
at device removal.

Also, there is a logic there at the same function checking for vmalloc:

if (is_vmalloc_addr(fw->data)) {
*firmware_p = fw;
return 0;
}

As now the memory may not be inside vmalloc space, shouldn't this
be changed as well?

Regards,
Mauro

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] media: intel/ipu6: Don't re-allocate memory for firmware

The ipu6 driver allocated vmalloc memory for the firmware if
request_firmware() somehow managed not to use vmalloc to allocate it.

Still how the memory is allocated by request_firmware() is not specified
in its API, so be prepared for kmalloc-allocated firmware, too. Instead of
allocating new vmalloc-backed buffer for the firmware, obtain the pages
from virtual addresses instead.

Hello everyone,

Mauro preferred not to merge the earlier patch. Admittedly, there are
better ways to fix the problem. Such as this one.
