[PATCH v2] media: mtk-jpeg: drain hardware completion before freeing context

Sat Jul 18 04:24:48 PDT 2026


The change referenced by the Fixes tag cancels ctx->jpeg_work before
freeing the JPEG context.

That prevents the worker itself from accessing the context after it has
been freed. However, the multi-core workers return after programming a
hardware instance. The IRQ handler or the per-hardware timeout work can
then continue to access the context through hw_param.curr_ctx after the
worker has completed.

If userspace closes the file while a hardware job is still pending,
cancel_work_sync() can return and mtk_jpeg_release() can free the
context before the IRQ or timeout path has finished using it.

Track the number of in-flight hardware jobs for each context and wait
for them to complete in mtk_jpeg_release().

Use a per-hardware active flag to ensure that only the IRQ handler or
the timeout work completes each job. Clear hw_param.curr_ctx and drop
the in-flight count only after the completion path has finished all
accesses to the context.

v2:
  - Replace the undefined mtk_jpeg_release_hw() call with per-context
    in-flight hardware job tracking.
  - Ensure that only the IRQ or timeout path completes each hardware job.
  - Clear hw_param.curr_ctx after the completion path stops using the
    context.
  - Keep hardware instances busy until the timeout path has finished
    accessing their saved context and buffers.
