fix(linux): validate mapped DMA-BUF frames - #386
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe PipeWire capture shim now validates frame bounds against actual DMA-BUF mappings or shared-memory sizes before copying frames. It adds bounded drop diagnostics and test coverage. Cursor metadata warnings now depend on the configured cursor mode. ChangesFrame validation and safe reads
Cursor metadata warning
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Frame validation still allows chunks marked corrupted when the reported size is non-zero, so corrupted pixels may reach the encoder. This is a bounded correctness risk that should be fixed before merging. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

990-1088: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low valueAdd assertion messages to the nine bounds cases.
This test packs nine
frame_bounds_validassertions with no messages. A failure reports only a line number, so the reader must re-derive which rule broke. The adjacent tests in this file already carry messages that name the rule.Add a short message per case, for example "chunk_offset past the allocation must be rejected" and "shared memory must use maxsize, not mapped_len".

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Check SPA_CHUNK_FLAG_CORRUPTED on every path, not only the xdpw sentinel path.
The corruption check sits inside the sentinel branch at Lines 795-802. The else branch at Lines 803-806 never inspects chunk_flags. A producer that marks a chunk corrupted and reports a non-zero maxsize therefore passes validation, and the corrupted pixels reach the encoder. This also affects the shared-memory path, where maxsize is always non-zero.
Move the flag test above the branch so all data types and both size paths reject corrupted chunks. Add a test with chunk_flags = 1 and a non-zero maxsize to cover the case.

Summary
Follow-up to #299 and #319.
I could still reproduce the DMA-BUF read failure on Arch with Sway and xdg-desktop-portal-wlr 0.8.2.
#319 recovers and stores the mapped length when PipeWire reports
maxsize = 0, but frames were still checked against the original zero value. xdg-desktop-portal-wlr also reports a chunk size of 9 when the size is unknown, so valid frames were rejected before reaching the encoder.This uses the mapped length when checking DMA-BUF frames and leaves the shared-memory path unchanged.
