[PATCH v0 1/4] media: chips-media: wave5: Guard bit depth check with initial_info_obtained

From: Jackson.lee

Date: Wed Jun 03 2026 - 22:07:41 EST


From: Jackson Lee <jackson.lee@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When CAPTURE STREAMON is called before the VPU has completed sequence
initialization (initial_info_obtained == false), the initial_info fields
contain uninitialized data. The driver checks
luma_bitdepth and rejects anything other than 8-bit, so garbage values
(e.g. 15) cause STREAMON to fail spuriously.

This is reproducible with the following multi-threaded test scenario:
1. Allocate 2 CAPTURE buffers.
2. Call STREAMON on the CAPTURE queue.
3. Call DQBUF, which blocks waiting for a decoded frame.
4. A second thread calls STREAMOFF on the CAPTURE queue.
5. The blocked DQBUF should be released, allowing graceful termination.

At step 2, STREAMON reads uninitialized luma_bitdepth and rejects the
stream, causing the test to fail.

Fix this by checking initial_info_obtained before accessing the bit
depth fields, so the validation is only performed when the sequence
info has actually been parsed by the VPU.
