your patch looks good, do you think we should also do this:
void amd_sched_fence_scheduled(struct amd_sched_fence *fence)
{
- int ret = fence_signal(&fence->scheduled);
+ int ret;
+
+ fence_get(&fence->scheduled;)
+ ret = fence_signal(&fence->scheduled);
if (!ret)
FENCE_TRACE(&fence->scheduled, "signaled from irq context\n");
else
FENCE_TRACE(&fence->scheduled, "was already signaled\n");
+ fence_put(&fence->scheduled);
}

There is chance that free_job() called before that â??trace_amd_sched_process_jobâ??, correct?
Correct, but that is harmless.
Take a look what trace_amd_sched_process_job actually does, it just prints the pointer of the fence structure (but the pointer might be stale at this point).
Nevertheless you are right that this is really ugly.
How about the attached patch to fix the issue?

Christian.

The free_job() is called in sched_job_finish() which is queued on a WORK and scheduled from that â??amd_sched_fence_finished()â??
So the finishing timing of free_job() is asynchronized with sched_process_job()
There is chance that free_job() called before that â??trace_amd_sched_process_jobâ??, correct?
And if so the s_fence referred by it maybe a wild pointer

No thatâ??s not true
The free_job() is called in sched_job_finish() which is queued on a WORK and scheduled from that â??amd_sched_fence_finished()â??
So the finishing timing of free_job() is asynchronized with sched_process_job()
How can you sure free_job() must before â??trace_amd_sched_process_jobâ?? ?

The free_job() callback is called only way after the job has finished.
That is one change actually made by you to the code :)

I doubt it would always work fineâ?¦
First, we have FENCE_TRACE reference s_fence->finished after â??fence_signal(&fence->finished)â??
Second, we have trace_amd_sched_proess_job(s_fence) after â??amd_sched_fence_finished()â??,
If you put the finished before free_job() and by coincidence the job_finish() get very soon executed youâ??ll have odds to hit wild pointer on above two cases

Yeah, that change is actually incorrect and should be reverted.
What we really need to do is remove dropping sched_job->s_fence from amd_sched_process_job() into amd_sched_job_finish() directly before the call to free_job().

Christian.

Hi Nicolai
with this patch, you will break "amdgpu_sched_hw_job_reset()"routine:
void
amd_sched_hw_job_reset(struct amd_gpu_scheduler
*sched)
{
struct amd_sched_job
*s_job;
spin_lock(&sched->job_list_lock);
list_for_each_entry_reverse(s_job,
&sched->ring_mirror_list, node) {
if (s_job->s_fence->parent
&&
fence_remove_callback(s_job->s_fence->parent,
&s_job->s_fence->cb))
{
fence_put(s_job->s_fence->parent);
s_job->s_fence->parent
=
NULL;
atomic_dec(&sched->hw_rq_count);
}
}
spin_unlock(&sched->job_list_lock);
}
see that without sched_job->s_fence, you cannot remove the callback from its hw fence,
any idea??
