But the thing confuse me is according to the design, if driver keep calling reserve_shared() prior to add_fence(), and with lock held of cause,
That BUG() shouldn't hit, so there are two things in face looks weired to me:
1) by design in reserve_shared(), obj->staged should be already NULL, so why we kfree on it
No, that is not correct.
2) in fact, amdgpu can hit the case that obj->staged is not NULL in reserved_shared(), don't know how it lead here
We reserved a fence slot without using it, so it is still there when
reserve_shared() is called.
Christian.
Any thought ?

And by the way, I add "if (staged!=NULL) BUG();" prior to
"kfree(obj->staged)" in reserve_shared() routine, and this BUG() is actually hit, The stack dump shows it is hit during the vm_bo_update() in gem_va_update()...
That is expected. The staged handling just makes sure that there is room available, it doesn't guarantee that it is actually used.
E.g. we can end up reserving a fence slot, but then find that we actually don't need it.
Christian.
Besides, the whole reservation logic still looks a little weired to me ... especially this staged part ...

Hi Christian
You are right on that part of obj-staged is set to NULL in add_fence,
So my following question will be why we kfree(obj->staged) in reserve_shared() if staged is always NULL in that point ?
Good question, I haven't wrote code that so I can't fully answer.
Maybe Chris or Maarten know more about that.
Christian.
Thanks

under below scenario the obj->fence would refer to a wild pointer:
1,call reservation_object_reserved_shared
2,call reservation_object_add_shared_fence
3,call reservation_object_reserved_shared
4,call reservation_object_add_shared_fence
in step 1, staged is allocated,
in step 2, code path will go reservation_object_add_shared_replace()
and obj->fence would be assigned as staged (through
RCU_INIT_POINTER)
in step 3, obj->staged will be freed(by simple kfree), which make
obj->fence point to a wild pointer...
Well that explanation is still nonsense. See
reservation_object_add_shared_fence:
obj->staged = NULL;
Among the first things reservation_object_add_shared_fence() does is
it sets obj->staged to NULL.
So step 3 will not free anything and we never have a wild pointer.
Regards,
Christian.
in step 4, code path will go reservation_object_add_shared_inplace()
and inside it the @fobj (which equals to @obj->staged, set by above
steps) is already a wild pointer
should remov the kfree on staged in
reservation_object_reserve_shared()
