[PATCH v2 0/6] omapdrm: struct_mutex removal

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

 



Hello,

This patch series removes the usage of struct_mutex from the omapdrm driver in
order to switch to gem_free_object_unlocked(). The series is inspired by
Daniel Vetter's recent gem_free_object_unlocked() patches (starting with
"[PATCH 1/5] staging/vboxvideo: Use gem_free_object_unlocked") and
includes patches "[PATCH 4/5] drm/omapdrm: Fix mm_list locking" and
"[PATCH] drm/omapdrm: Switch to gem_free_object_unlocked" (the latter
modified due to the rebase).

When reviewing Daniel's patches I noticed a potential issue in lock handling
which prompted me to go and remove all usage of struct_mutex from the omapdrm
driver. Instead of replacing it with a device-wide lock, I have decided to
create per-GEM object locks as there is no need, as far as I can see, to
serialize operations across separate GEM objects.

The series starts with a bit of cleanup in the form of renaming (1/6) and
refactoring (2/6), followed by removal of struct_mutex (3/6 and 4/6). It then
ends with Daniel's patches that switch to gem_free_object_unlocked().

The patches are based on top of the latest drm-misc. They have been tested on
a Pandaboard.
