The merge function initially handled only individual fences and
arrays which in turn were created by the merge function. This allowed
to create the new array by a simple merge sort based on the fence
context number.

The problem is now that since the addition of timeline sync objects
userspace can create chain containers in basically any fence context
order.

If those are merged together it can happen that we create really
large arrays since the merge sort algorithm doesn't work any more.

So put an insert sort behind the merge sort which kicks in when the
input fences are not in the expected order. This isn't as efficient
as a heap sort, but has better properties for the most common use
case.

This is broken. The first iteration of this loop will always index out
of bounds.

Nope, that is correct. The condition is evaluated before the loop, so the i-- reduces the index to the last element in the array.

What you probably want here is:

+        for (i = count - 1; count && i--;) {

This intentionally overflows for count == 0, but the ++i after the loop
undoes that. Maybe it would be worth a comment to point out that's
intentional.

+            if (likely(array[i]->context < tmp->context))
+                break;

+            if (array[i]->context == tmp->context) {

Need memmove here, src and dst alias.

I took it for a spin with these things fixed and it seemed to resolve
the issue as well. How do you want to proceed? I guess I would be
comfortable putting a Reviewed-by and/or Tested-by on a version with
these things fixed (with the usual caveat that I'm not a maintainer - I
guess the process requires (at least one) reviewer to be?).

By the way, I guess you might've had some internal branches where this
fix needed to go into quick or something? Usually I'm happy to make a v2
for my patches myself, too ;)

Friedrich
