[PATCH] drm/i915: Neuter virtual rq->engine on retire

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

 



We do not hold a reference to rq->engine, and so if it is a virtual
engine it may have already been freed by the time we free the request.
The last reference we hold on the virtual engine is via rq->context,
and that is released on request retirement. So if we find ourselves
retiring a virtual request, redirect it to a real sibling.

Closes: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/1906
