[alsa-devel] Applied "ASoC: topology: fix soc_tplg_fe_link_create() - link->dobj initialization order" to the asoc tree

[Mark Brown]

The patch

   ASoC: topology: fix soc_tplg_fe_link_create() - link->dobj initialization order

has been applied to the asoc tree at

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git for-5.5

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: topology: fix soc_tplg_fe_link_create() - link->dobj
 initialization order

The code which checks the return value for snd_soc_add_dai_link() call
in soc_tplg_fe_link_create() moved the snd_soc_add_dai_link() call before
link->dobj members initialization.

While it does not affect the latest kernels, the old soc-core.c code
in the stable kernels is affected. The snd_soc_add_dai_link() function uses
the link->dobj.type member to check, if the link structure is valid.

Reorder the link->dobj initialization to make things work again.
It's harmless for the recent code (and the structure should be properly
initialized before other calls anyway).

The problem is in stable linux-5.4.y since version 5.4.11 when the
upstream commit 76d270364932 was applied.
