staging: android: sync: Fix memory corruption in sync_timeline_signal().

2015-03-26T09:58:51Z

The android_fence_release() function checks for active sync points by calling list_empty() on the list head embedded on the sync point. However, it is only valid to use list_empty() on nodes that have been initialized with INIT_LIST_HEAD() or list_del_init(). Because the list entry has likely been removed from the active list by sync_timeline_signal(), there is a good chance that this WARN_ON_ONCE() will be hit due to dangling pointers pointing at freed memory (even though the sync drivers did nothing wrong) and memory corruption will ensue as the list entry is removed for a second time, corrupting the active list. This problem can be reproduced quite easily with CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST=y and fences with more than one sync point.

android: fix reference leak in sync_fence_create

2014-09-08T20:42:00Z

According to the documentation sync_fence_create takes ownership of the point, not a reference on the point. This fixes a memory leak introduced in 3.17's android fence rework. Signed-off-by: Maarten Lankhorst Cc: Colin Cross Cc: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Pull staging driver updates from Greg KH: "Here's the big pull request for the staging driver tree for 3.17-rc1. Lots of things in here, over 2000 patches, but the best part is this: 1480 files changed, 39070 insertions(+), 254659 deletions(-) Thanks to the great work of Kristina Martšenko, 14 different staging drivers have been removed from the tree as they were obsolete and no one was willing to work on cleaning them up. Other than the driver removals, loads of cleanups are in here (comedi, lustre, etc.) as well as the usual IIO driver updates and additions.

android: convert sync to fence api, v6

2014-07-08T20:28:26Z

Just to show it's easy. Android syncpoints can be mapped to a timeline. This removes the need to maintain a separate api for synchronization. I've left the android trace events in place, but the core fence events should already be sufficient for debugging. v2: - Call fence_remove_callback in sync_fence_free if not all fences have fired. v3: - Merge Colin Cross' bugfixes, and the android fence merge optimization. v4: - Merge with the upstream fixes. v5: - Fix small style issues pointed out by Thomas Hellstrom. v6: - Fix for updates to fence api.
