[PATCH 02/10] staging: media: cedrus: reject too large H.264/HEVC SPS

Mon Nov 2 09:02:55 PST 2026


The hardware decodes whatever picture size the SPS describes. An SPS
beyond CEDRUS_MAX_WIDTH/HEIGHT, or beyond the capture buffers once they
are allocated, makes the hardware overrun memory and hang. On H616, the
JCT-VC PICSIZE_A..D streams (1056x8440, 8440x1056, 528x4216 and
4216x528) leave the hardware wedged, so that every following job times
out until reboot.

Validate the SPS picture size in try_ctrl. Move the size limits to
cedrus_video.h for that.

Fixes: 6eb9b758e307 ("media: cedrus: Add H264 decoding support")
Fixes: 86caab29da78 ("media: cedrus: Add HEVC/H.265 decoding support")
