When drm_sched_job_add_dependency() fails, dma_fence_put() will be called internally. Calling it again after drm_sched_job_add_dependency() finishes
may result in a dangling pointer.

Fix this by removing redundant dma_fence_put().

Not sure about this one since if you look at the relevant commits -
'drm/scheduler: fix drm_sched_job_add_implicit_dependencies' and
'drm/scheduler: fix drm_sched_job_add_implicit_dependencies harder'
You will see that the dma_fence_put here balances the extra dma_fence_get
above

I don't think so. I checked the call chain and found no additional dma_fence_get(). But dma_fence_get() needs to be called before drm_sched_job_add_dependency() to keep the counter balanced.


I didn't say there is an additional dma_fence_get , from what I understand here drm_sched_job_add_implicit_dependencies->dma_fence_get is not balancing any counter but rather grabs an extra reference to account for adding the fence to the job's dependency array, and so when adding fails then you call dma_fence_put to decrement the count back. This makes sense because drm_sched_job_add_dependency doesn't increment himself refcount for the fences

On the other hand, dma_fence_get() and dma_fence_put() are meaningless here if threre is an extra dma_fence_get() beacause counter will not decrease to 0 during drm_sched_job_add_dependency().


Where is the extra dma_fence_get() ?



I check the call chain as follows:

msm_ioctl_gem_submit()
-> submit_fence_sync()
-> drm_sched_job_add_implicit_dependencies()


Could you maybe print the buggy refcount sequence you say you discovered as an example ? Because I fail to follow where is the problem.

Thanks,
