[Why]
When running IGT kms_bw test with DP monitor, some systems crash from
msleep no matter how long or short the time is.
[How]
To replace msleep with mdelay.
Can you provide a bit more info about the crash? A lot of platforms
don't support delay larger than 2-4ms so this change will generate
errors on ARM and possibly other platforms.
Alex
The msleep was introduced in eec3303de3378 for non-compliant display
port monitors but IGT's kms_bw test can cause a recent h/w to hang at
msleep(60) when calling "igt_remove_fb" in IGT
(https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgitlab.freedesktop.org%2Fdrm%2Figt-gpu-tools%2F-%2Fblob%2Fmaster%2Ftests%2Fkms_bw.c%23L197&data=05%7C01%7Calex.hung%40amd.com%7Cee0c28620f2447f13a8f08dade1dc0bc%7C3dd8961fe4884e608e11a82d994e183d%7C0%7C0%7C638066516634100466%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=mx33srt3RgcA4ZklYVXom9ZQklJjWmcywEtb4qJQVBQ%3D&reserved=0)
It is possible to workaround this by reversing order of
igt_remove_fb(&buffer[i]), as the following example:
igt_create_color_fb with the order buffer[0], buffer[1], buffer[2]
Hangs:
igt_remove_fb with the order buffer[0], buffer[1], buffer[2]
No hangs:
igt_remove_fb with the reversed order buffer[2], buffer[1], buffer[0]
However, IGT simply exposes the problem and it makes more sense to stop
the hang from occurring.
I also tried to remove the msleep completely and it also work, but I
didn't want to break the fix for the original problematic hardware
configuration.
Why does sleep vs delay make a difference? Is there some race that we
are not locking against?
Alex
That was my original thought but I did not find any previously. I will
investigate it again.
If mdelay(>4) isn't usable on other platforms, is it an option to use
mdelay on x86_64 only and keep msleep on other platforms or just remove
the msleep for other platforms, something like
- msleep(60);
+#ifdef CONFIG_X86_64
+ mdelay(60);
+#endif
