In fact I think it's also a good case which should not get a MMU fault and GPU reset because it happens even user sapce driver is right. I only think when user driver is not right deserve a MMU fault like bug/evil code which free/unmap bo before task done. I think this is also the difference of user free bo and drm close free bo in my case. > >>> You really do need to refcount the buffers used in a rendering job so >>> they don't get freed early. >> Do you mean refcount the buffers in kernel space job?

That's > going to be bad for performance. In my case this doesn't affect performance. My implementation is user space driver will record task buffers and free them when task done. So in normal usage when the buffer is freed, there should be no task from this process using it. Wait should only happen when Ctrl+C and not close screen case. > Or are you saying that you already > have the connection between the task and its objects (and, if so, why > aren't you just doing refcounting correctly through that path?) This is by the reservation object of the buffer, I can wait on the fences in the reservation object for task done when buffer free. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
