This commit assumes that going through drm_framebuffer_remove() is not necessary because "the fbdev code or any system compositor should restore the planes anyway so there's no need to do it twice". But this is not true for secondary GPUs / slave outputs. This revert fixes the dgpu no longer suspending on laptops with switchable graphics after an external output which is connected to the dgpu has been used. And it fixes the WARN_ON to detect drm_framebuffer leaks in drm_mode_config_cleanup() triggering when unplugging an USB displaylink device; or when rmmod-ing the secondary GPU kms driver on laptops with switchable-graphics. Also this part of the reverted commit's commit-msg: "The old fb_id is zero'd, so there's no danger of being able to restore the fb from fb_id." is no longer true, the zero-ing does not happen until drm_framebuffer_free gets called, which does not happen until the last ref is dropped, so if a crtc's primary->fb is still pointing to this fb, the id will not get zero'd and userspace could potentially gain access to the removed fb again.

That thing took forever to get merged since no one seemed to have cared and bothered with a tested-by. But it's on its way to stable kernels now.
Ah, excellent, the important thing is that this gets fixed :) Regards, Hans _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
