Re: [PATCH] drm/scheduler: Remove entity->rq NULL check

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

 



I would rather like to avoid taking the lock in the hot path.

How about this:

     /* For killed process disable any more IBs enqueue right now */
    last_user = cmpxchg(&entity->last_user, current->group_leader, NULL);
     if ((!last_user || last_user == current->group_leader) &&
         (current->flags & PF_EXITING) && (current->exit_code == SIGKILL)) {
        grab_lock();
         drm_sched_rq_remove_entity(entity->rq, entity);
        if (READ_ONCE(&entity->last_user) != NULL)
            drm_sched_rq_add_entity(entity->rq, entity);
        drop_lock();
    }

Attached. 

If the general idea in the patch is OK I can think of a test (and maybe add to libdrm amdgpu tests) to actually simulate this scenario with 2 forked

concurrent processes working on same entity's job queue when one is dying while the other keeps pushing to the same queue. For now I only tested it

with normal boot and ruining multiple glxgears concurrently - which doesn't really test this code path since i think each of them works on it's own FD.

Crap, yeah indeed that needs to be protected by some lock.

Going to prepare a patch for that,

But I still  have questions about entity->last_user (didn't notice this before) -

Looks to me there is a race condition with it's current usage, let's say process A was preempted after doing drm_sched_entity_flush->cmpxchg(...)

now process B working on same entity (forked) is inside drm_sched_entity_push_job, he writes his PID to entity->last_user and also

executes drm_sched_rq_add_entity. Now process A runs again and execute drm_sched_rq_remove_entity inadvertently causing process B removal

from it's scheduler rq.

Looks to me like instead we should lock together entity->last_user accesses and adds/removals of entity to the rq.

I forgot about this since we started discussing possible scenarios of processes and threads.

In any case, this check is redundant. Acked-by: Nayan Deshmukh <nayan26deshmukh@xxxxxxxxx>
