[PATCH 2/3] dma-buf/sw_sync: clean up list before signaling the fence

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

 



From: Gustavo Padovan <gustavo.padovan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If userspace already dropped its own reference by closing the sw_sync
fence fd we might end up in a deadlock where
dma_fence_is_signaled_locked() will trigger the release of the fence and
thus try to hold the lock to remove the fence from the list.

dma_fence_is_signaled_locked() tries to release/free the fence and hold
the lock in the process.

We fix that by changing the order operation and clean up the list and
rb-tree first.

v2: Drop the fence get/put dance and manipulate the list first (Chris Wilson)
