this: CPU1 CPU2 nouveau code calls some drm_mm.c function which takes mm->unused_lock nouveau_channel_free disables irqs and takes dev_priv->context_switch_lock calls nv50_graph_destroy_context which (... backtrace above) calls drm_mm_put_block which tries to take mm->unused_lock (spins) nouveau interrupt raises nouveau_irq_handler tries to take dev_priv->context_switch_lock (spins) deadlock Possible solutions: - reverting "drm/nouveau: use drm_mm in preference to custom code doing the same thing" - disabling interrupts before calling drm_mm functions - unmaintainable and still deadlockable in multicard setups (nouveau and eg radeon) - making mm->unused_lock HARDIRQ-safe (patch below) - simple but with slight overhead --- From: Marcin Slusarz <marcin.slusarz@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [PATCH] drm: make drm_mm->unused_lock HARDIRQ-safe nouveau started to use drm_mm functions (in "drm/nouveau: use drm_mm in preference to custom code doing the same thing") but it has to call them under HARDIRQ-safe lock. To prevent deadlocks we have to make drm_mm->unused_lock HARDIRQ-safe too. Deadlock scenario: CPU1 CPU2 nouveau code calls some drm_mm.c function which takes mm->unused_lock nouveau_channel_free disables irqs and takes dev_priv->context_switch_lock calls nv50_graph_destroy_context which (... backtrace above) calls drm_mm_put_block which tries to take mm->unused_lock (spins) nouveau interrupt raises nouveau_irq_handler tries to take dev_priv->context_switch_lock (spins) Signed-off-by: Marcin Slusarz <marcin.slusarz@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/drm_mm.c | 30 +++++++++++++++++------------- 1 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_mm.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_mm.c index 2ac074c..bb95831 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_mm.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_mm.c @@ -81,6 +81,7 @@ int drm_mm_remove_space_from_tail(struct drm_mm *mm, unsigned long size) static struct drm_mm_node *drm_mm_kmalloc(struct drm_mm *mm, int atomic) { struct drm_mm_node *child; + unsigned long flags; if (atomic) child = kmalloc(sizeof(*child), GFP_ATOMIC); @@ -88,7 +89,7 @@ static struct drm_mm_node *drm_mm_kmalloc(struct drm_mm *mm, int atomic) child = kmalloc(sizeof(*child), GFP_KERNEL); if (unlikely(child == NULL)) { - spin_lock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_lock_irqsave(&mm->unused_lock, flags); if (list_empty(&mm->unused_nodes)) child = NULL; else { @@ -98,7 +99,7 @@ static struct drm_mm_node *drm_mm_kmalloc(struct drm_mm *mm, int atomic) list_del(&child->fl_entry); --mm->num_unused; } - spin_unlock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->unused_lock, flags); } return child; } @@ -111,22 +112,23 @@ static struct drm_mm_node *drm_mm_kmalloc(struct drm_mm *mm, int atomic) int drm_mm_pre_get(struct drm_mm *mm) { struct drm_mm_node *node; + unsigned long flags; - spin_lock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_lock_irqsave(&mm->unused_lock, flags); while (mm->num_unused < MM_UNUSED_TARGET) { - spin_unlock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->unused_lock, flags); node = kmalloc(sizeof(*node), GFP_KERNEL); - spin_lock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_lock_irqsave(&mm->unused_lock, flags); if (unlikely(node == NULL)) { int ret = (mm->num_unused < 2) ? -ENOMEM : 0; - spin_unlock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->unused_lock, flags); return ret; } ++mm->num_unused; list_add_tail(&node->fl_entry, &mm->unused_nodes); } - spin_unlock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->unused_lock, flags); return 0; } EXPORT_SYMBOL(drm_mm_pre_get); @@ -277,6 +279,7 @@ void drm_mm_put_block(struct drm_mm_node *cur) struct list_head *root_head = &mm->ml_entry; struct drm_mm_node *prev_node = NULL; struct drm_mm_node *next_node; + unsigned long flags; int merged = 0; @@ -296,14 +299,14 @@ void drm_mm_put_block(struct drm_mm_node *cur) prev_node->size += next_node->size; list_del(&next_node->ml_entry); list_del(&next_node->fl_entry); - spin_lock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_lock_irqsave(&mm->unused_lock, flags); if (mm->num_unused < MM_UNUSED_TARGET) { list_add(&next_node->fl_entry, &mm->unused_nodes); ++mm->num_unused; } else kfree(next_node); - spin_unlock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->unused_lock, flags); } else { next_node->size += cur->size; next_node->start = cur->start; @@ -316,13 +319,13 @@ void drm_mm_put_block(struct drm_mm_node *cur) list_add(&cur->fl_entry, &mm->fl_entry); } else { list_del(&cur->ml_entry); - spin_lock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_lock_irqsave(&mm->unused_lock, flags); if (mm->num_unused < MM_UNUSED_TARGET) { list_add(&cur->fl_entry, &mm->unused_nodes); ++mm->num_unused; } else kfree(cur); - spin_unlock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->unused_lock, flags); } } @@ -445,6 +448,7 @@ void drm_mm_takedown(struct drm_mm * mm) struct list_head *bnode = mm->fl_entry.next; struct drm_mm_node *entry; struct drm_mm_node *next; + unsigned long flags; entry = list_entry(bnode, struct drm_mm_node, fl_entry); @@ -458,13 +462,13 @@ void drm_mm_takedown(struct drm_mm * mm) list_del(&entry->ml_entry); kfree(entry); - spin_lock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_lock_irqsave(&mm->unused_lock, flags); list_for_each_entry_safe(entry, next, &mm->unused_nodes, fl_entry) { list_del(&entry->fl_entry); kfree(entry); --mm->num_unused; } - spin_unlock(&mm->unused_lock); + spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->unused_lock, flags); BUG_ON(mm->num_unused != 0); } -- 1.7.1 _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
