[PATCH v2 1/4] ASoC: qcom: sdw: fix memory leak for sdw_stream_runtime
Posted by Srinivas Kandagatla 3 months, 3 weeks ago
For some reason we endedup allocating sdw_stream_runtime for every cpu dai,
this has two issues.
1. we never set snd_soc_dai_set_stream for non soundwire dai, which
   means there is no way that we can free this, resulting in memory leak
2. startup and shutdown callbacks can be called without
   hw_params callback called. This combination results in memory leak
because machine driver sruntime array pointer is only set in hw_params
callback.

Fix this by
 1. adding a helper function to get sdw_runtime for substream
which can be used by shutdown callback to get hold of sruntime to free.
 2. only allocate sdw_runtime for soundwire dais.

Fixes: d32bac9cb09c ("ASoC: qcom: Add helper for allocating Soundwire stream runtime")

Hi Srini,

On the Thinkpad X13s, with this patchset applied, we end up seeing a NULL

Thanks Steev,
I think I know the issue, There was a silly typo in 3/4 patch.
Could you please try this change, I will send this in v3 anyway;
