This reverts commit ded716267196862809e5926072adc962a611a1e3.

This change doesn't make any sense and breaks the driver.

The fix is indeed wrong, but reverting is the wrong thing to do.

The problem is that the driver is trying to write past the allocated area, as reported:

drivers/media/platform/qcom/venus/hfi_parser.c:103 parse_profile_level() error: memcpy() 'proflevel' too small (8 vs 128) drivers/media/platform/qcom/venus/hfi_parser.c:129 parse_caps() error: memcpy() 'cap' too small (16 vs 512)

If you check the memcpy() logic at the above lines, you'll see that hfi_capability.data may have up to 32 entries, and hfi_profile_level_supported.profile level can have up to it can be up to 16 entries.

So, the buffer should either be dynamically allocated with the real size or we need something like the enclosed patch.

Thanks,
Mauro

hfi_capabilities / hfi_profile_level_supported come from hardware so there is no option to dynamically allocate, and using size [1] doesn't cause any bug.

Your enclosed patch is wrong in a way because MAX_CAP_ENTRIES is not a hardware limit but the size of the statically allocated array used by the driver. I don't think there is any defined hardware limit, otherwise the driver author would've defined it as they did with HFI_MAX_PROFILE_COUNT.

A better solution (IMO) if you want to avoid these warnings is to remove those memcpy() and work on the data[] / profile_level[] from the struct directly:

In reply to Jonathan Marek

Hi Jonathan,

I sent a fix for that here [1] and Mauro already taken it.
