Hi Jeongjun,

The CPU submit ioctl checks cpu_job->job_type before the CPU job has been

the check fails and the ioctl goes to the common error path.

That path calls v3d_job_cleanup(), which expects a fully initialized
v3d_job. However at this point the CPU job has only been allocated,
so the embedded DRM scheduler job state has not been initialized yet.

Initialize the CPU job after parsing extensions, but before validating
the CPU job type and BO count. Keep pre-initialization failures on a

Considering that this is a minimal fix for stable, could you explain me
why do you believe moving v3d_job_init() is the best solution?

Best regards,

separate path that only deallocates the job and releases multisync
post-dependencies. Also use the CPU-job release callback so initialized
CPU jobs are released through the normal cleanup path.
