Re: [Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Hold struct_mutex during hotplug processing

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Two things I've noticed:
- Why not dev->mode_config.mutex? I was under the impression that
mode_config.mutex protects most of the modesetting state and
dev->struct_mutex protects things related to the gpu execution cores
(i.e. all things gem), with struct_mutex nested within
mode_config.mutex. It's hazy at the edges and likely broken in tons of
corner cases, but still ... This has also the benefit that it won't
stall execbuf.
- And a nitpick: Why the dev_priv->dev indirection, when dev is
already lying around?
