From the kerneldoc of drm_crtc_arm_vblank_event(): * Caller must hold a vblank reference for the event @e acquired by a * drm_crtc_vblank_get(), which will be dropped when the next vblank arrives. So when we call drm_crtc_arm_vblank_event then the vblank_put gets called for us. And that's the only case where we successfully acquired a vblank interrupt reference since on failure of drm_crtc_vblank_get (0 indicates success for that function, failure negative error number) we directly send out the event. So something else fishy is going on, and now I'm totally confused why this even happens. We also have a pile of WARN_ON checks in drm_crtc_vblank_put to make sure we don't underflow the refcount, so it's also not that I think (except if this patch creates more WARNING backtraces). But clearly it changes behaviour somehow ... can you try to figure out what changes? Maybe print out the vblank->refcount at various points in the driver, and maybe also trace when exactly the fake vkms vblank hrtimer is enabled/disabled ... I'm totally confused about what's going on here now. -Daniel > crtc->state->event = NULL; > } > > -- > 2.27.0 > -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
