[PATCH 2/3] drm/i915/active: Serialize use of barriers as fence trackers

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

 



When adding a request to a composite tracker, we try to use an existing
fence tracker already registered with that composite.  The tracker we
obtain can already track another fence, can be an idle barrier, or an
active barrier.

When we acquire an idle barrier, we don't claim it in any way until
__i915_active_fence_set() we call substitutes its NULL fence pointer with
that of our request's fence.  But another thread looking for an idle
barrier can race with us.  If that thread is collecting barriers for
preallocation, it may update the NULL fence pointer with ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN)
barrier mark, either before or after we manage to replace it with our
request fence.  It can also corrupt our callback list pointers when
reusing them as an engine pointer (prev) and a preallocated barriers
llist node link (next), or we can corrupt their data.

When we acquire a non-idle barrier in turn, we try to delete that barrier
from a list of barrier tasks it belongs to.  If that deletion succeedes
then we convert the barrier to an idle one by replacing its barrier mark
with NULL and decermenting active count of its hosting composite tracker.
But as soon as we do this, we expose that barrier to the above described
idle barrier race.

Claim acquired idle barrier right away by marking it immediately with
ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN) barrier mark.  Serialize that operation with other
threads trying to claim a barrier and go back for picking up another
tracker if some other thread wins the race.

Furthermore, on successful deletion of a non-idle barrier from a barrier
tasks list, don't overwrite the barrier mark with NULL -- that's not
needed at the moment since the barrier, once deleted from its list, can no
longer be acquired by any other thread as long as all threads respect
deletion results.  Also, don't decrease active counter of the hosting
composite tracker, but skip the follow up step that increases it back.

For the above to work correctly, teach __i915_active_fence_set() function
to recognize and handle non-idle barriers correctly when requested.

The issue has never been reproduced cleanly, only identified via code
analysis while working on fence callback list corruptions which occurred
to have a complex root cause, see commit e0e6b416b25e ("drm/i915/active:
Fix misuse of non-idle barriers as fence trackers") for details.  However,
it has been assumed that the issue could start to be potentially
reproducible as soon as timeline mutex locks around calls to
i915_active_fence_set() were dropped by commit df9f85d8582e ("drm/i915:
Serialise i915_active_fence_set() with itself").
