[PATCH 0/1] media: change media_device_request_alloc to match media_ioctl_info

[frederic.chen at mediatek.com]

*** BLURB HERE ***
Hello,

This patch is to modify media_device_request_alloc() so that it can pass
CFI(Control Flow Integrity) check. I would like some review comments.

media_device_request_alloc() is saved in fn of media_ioctl_info struct,
which is defined as long (*fn)(struct media_device *dev, void *arg). The
type of the second parameter of media_device_request_alloc() is int* now,
but it is void* in fn of media_ioctl_info. We got some ABI violation here.
Therefore, we would like to use void* instead of int* for the second
parameter of media_device_request_alloc().

static long media_device_request_alloc(struct media_device *mdev,
				       int *alloc_fd);

struct media_ioctl_info {
	unsigned int cmd;
	unsigned short flags;
	long (*fn)(struct media_device *dev, void *arg);
	long (*arg_from_user)(void *karg, void __user *uarg, unsigned int cmd);
	long (*arg_to_user)(void __user *uarg, void *karg, unsigned int cmd);
};


Here is an example. With Android’s CFI checking, we got the following error
without this change.
