[alsa-devel] [PATCH v2 0/2] topology: Fix for handling widgets' references
From: Mengdong Lin mengdong.lin@linux.intel.com
This series fixes an error when merging a widget's private data and an inaccurate output message.
History: v2: Split v1 into 2 patches. And set the valid reference element value only on success.
Mengdong Lin (2): topology: Fix inaccurate message on failure to find a widgets's reference topology: Fix the missing referenced elem ptr when merging private data

A widget may have references to control or data elements. So the message should not only use "control" here.

tplg_copy_data() should set the valid referenced data element pointer on success. The caller will double check this pointer for all kinds of references, including controls and data.

Is this really OK when the found topology element has no private data? In this case, ref->elem has no assignment at return.
ref_elem = tplg_elem_lookup(&tplg->pdata_list, ref->id, SND_TPLG_TYPE_DATA); ... /* overlook empty private data */ if (!ref_elem->data || !ref_elem->data->size) return 0; ... ref->elem = ref_elem; return 0;

No. This is my mistake. Thanks for finding this bug.
ref->elem should still be assigned for this case. I will make it like this:

Let us split data merging code to an explicit function? Then:
if (ref_elem->data != NULL && ref_elem->data->size > 0) { err = merge_private_data(elem, ref_elem); if (err < 0) return err; } ref->elem = ref_elem; return 0;
(Here, I expect compiler optimization to merge the new function to caller implicitly.)

Hi,
I submitted a new v4 patch to solve this issue, which will return -EINVAL right after a failure to find an element's reference. I hope will make the code more clear to read. So there is no need to modify tplg_copy_data() now, checking its return value is enough.
The new patch name is [PATCH v4] topology: Return -EINVAL at once on failure to find a reference. Please review.
Thanks Mengdong
