Hi, Felix,

Re: It may be better to fix it the other way around in amdgpu_amdkfd_alloc_gtt_mem. Always take the reset_sem inside the reservation. Otherwise you will never be able to take the reset_sem while any BOs are reserved. That's probably going to cause you other problems later.
[Dennis Li] Thanks that you find the potential issue, I will change it in version 2.

Re: That makes me wonder, why do you need the reset_sem in amdgpu_amdkfd_alloc_gtt_mem in the first place? There is no obvious hardware access in that function. Is it for amdgpu_ttm_alloc_gart updating the GART table through HDP?
[Dennis Li] Yes, amdgpu_gart_bind will flush HDP and TLB. I have considered to only protect amdgpu_ttm_alloc_gart before.

That access is irrelevant and the lock should be removed or changed into a trylock.

See we need the HDP flush only because the hardware could have accessed the data before.

But after a GPU reset the HDP is known to be clean, so this doesn't need any protection.

  But I worry other functions will access hardware in the future. Therefore I select an aggressive approach which lock reset_sem at the beginning of entry functions of amdgpu driver.

This is not a good idea. We used to have such a global lock before and removed it because it caused all kind of problems.

When was this added? Looks like it slipped under my radar or I wasn't awake enough at that moment.

Christian.


Best Regards
Dennis Li

change the order of reservation_ww_class_mutex and adev->reset_sem in
amdgpu_gem_va_ioctl the same as ones in amdgpu_amdkfd_alloc_gtt_mem,
to avoid potential dead lock.
It may be better to fix it the other way around in amdgpu_amdkfd_alloc_gtt_mem. Always take the reset_sem inside the reservation. Otherwise you will never be able to take the reset_sem while any BOs are reserved. That's probably going to cause you other problems later.
