Subject: RE: [PATCH 3/3] drm/amdgpu: skip put fence if signal fails
Hi Christian,
The resubmitted job in function amdgpu_ib_preempt_job_recovery returns the same hw fence because of this commit:
static void amdgpu_ib_preempt_job_recovery(struct drm_gpu_scheduler *sched) {
struct drm_sched_job *s_job;
struct dma_fence *fence;
spin_lock(&sched->job_list_lock);
list_for_each_entry(s_job, &sched->pending_list, list) {
fence = sched->ops->run_job(s_job); //fence returned has the same address with swapped fences
dma_fence_put(fence);
}
spin_unlock(&sched->job_list_lock);
}

drm/amd/amdgpu embed hw_fence into amdgpu_job
Why: Previously hw fence is alloced separately with job.
It caused historical lifetime issues and corner cases.
The ideal situation is to take fence to manage both job
and fence's lifetime, and simplify the design of gpu-scheduler.
How:
We propose to embed hw_fence into amdgpu_job.
1. We cover the normal job submission by this method.
2. For ib_test, and submit without a parent job keep the
legacy way to create a hw fence separately.
v2:
use AMDGPU_FENCE_FLAG_EMBED_IN_JOB_BIT to show that the fence is
embedded in a job.
v3:
remove redundant variable ring in amdgpu_job
v4:
add tdr sequence support for this feature. Add a job_run_counter to
indicate whether this job is a resubmit job.
v5
add missing handling in amdgpu_fence_enable_signaling

Thus the fence we swapped out is signaled and put twice in the following 2 functions and we get " refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free. " errors latter.
/* wait for jobs finished */
amdgpu_fence_wait_empty(ring); //wait on the resubmitted fence which is signaled and put somewhere else. The refcount decreased by 1 after amdgpu_fence_wait_empty.
/* signal the old fences */
amdgpu_ib_preempt_signal_fences(fences, length); //signal and put the previous swapped fence, signal would return -22.
Thanks,
Jiadong

Well quite a big NAK on this.
Reference counting should be completely independent where a fence signals.
Andrey can you take a look at this as well?
Thanks,
Christian.
