So basically calling unmap_mapping_range doesn't require any extra
locking around it and whatever locks are taken within the function
should be enough ?

I think so, yes.

Christian.

Yes, that's true. However, without the bo reservation, nothing stops a PTE from being immediately re-faulted back again. Even while unmap_mapping_range() is running.

Can you explain more on this - specifically, which function to reserve the BO, why BO reservation would prevent re-fault of the PTE ?

So the device removed flag needs to be advertized before this function is run,

I indeed intend to call this  right after calling drm_dev_unplug from amdgpu_pci_remove while adding drm_dev_enter/exit in ttm_bo_vm_fault (or in amdgpu specific wrapper since I don't see how can I access struct drm_device from ttm_bo_vm_fault) and this in my understanding should stop a PTE from being re-faulted back as you pointed out - so again I don't see how  bo reservation would prevent it so it looks like I am missing something...

(perhaps with a memory barrier pair).

drm_dev_unplug and drm_dev_enter/exit are RCU synchronized and so I don't think require any extra memory barriers for visibility of the removed flag being set

Andrey

That should probably be added to the function documentation.

(Other than that, please add a commit message if respinning).
