Subject: [PATCH] media: amphion: Stop mailbox RX before freeing the message buffer
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2026 01:19:50 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260923051950.89403-1-mhun512@gmail.com> (raw)

vpu_core_unregister() frees core->msg_buffer and clears core->vpu
before cancelling the message workers.  The fifo keeps its own pointer
to that buffer.  The core workers read it and queue inst->msg_work,
which uses core->vpu and may send on TX.

vpu_isr() fills the fifo from the mailbox RX callback.  i.MX MU
free_irq() waits for that callback, not for the queued work.  An open
instance holds a runtime-PM reference, so remove can skip runtime
suspend and leave RX active.

Stop RX, then drain the core workers and the instance workers they
queued with vpu_core_cancel_work(), while core->vpu and TX are still
valid.  Free the buffer and clear core->vpu after that drain.  Drop
the runtime reference only then: runtime suspend frees every channel.
