Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: compress: Fix task creation error unwind
Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2026 10:37:26 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260615-alsa-compress-task-unwind-v1-1-39e8ad3ddb27@gmail.com> (raw)

snd_compr_task_new() allocates the driver task before validating the
returned DMA buffers and reserving file descriptors. When either of
those later steps fails, the core frees its task wrapper and DMA-buffer
references without calling the driver's task_free() callback. Any
driver resources allocated by task_create() are therefore leaked.

The dual-fd allocation path also jumps to cleanup without storing the
negative get_unused_fd_flags() result in retval. Since retval still
contains the successful task_create() return value, TASK_CREATE can
incorrectly report success although the task was discarded.

Preserve the fd allocation errors and call task_free() when failure
occurs after a successful task_create() callback.

Fixes: 04177158cf98 ("ALSA: compress_offload: introduce accel operation mode")
Fixes: 3d3f43fab4cf ("ALSA: compress_offload: improve file descriptors installation for dma-buf")
