Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88652 When converting from implicitly tracked execlist queue items to ref counted requests, not all frees of requests were replaced with unrefs, and extraneous refs/unrefs of contexts were added. Correct the unbalanced refcount & replace the frees. Remove a noisy warning when hitting the request creation path. drm_i915_gem_request and intel_context are both kref reference counted structures. Upon allocation, drm_i915_gem_request's ref count should be bumped using kref_init. When a context is assigned to the request, the context's reference count should be bumped using i915_gem_context_reference. i915_gem_request_reference will reduce the context reference count when the request is freed. Problem introduced in commit 6d3d8274bc45de4babb62d64562d92af984dd238 Author: Nick Hoath <nicholas.hoath@xxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Thu Jan 15 13:10:39 2015 +0000 drm/i915: Subsume intel_ctx_submit_request in to drm_i915_gem_request v2: Added comments explaining how the ctx pointer and the request object should be ref-counted. Removed noisy warning. v3: Cleaned up the language used in the commit & the header description (Thanks David Gordon) Signed-off-by: Nick Hoath <nicholas.hoath@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.h | 11 ++++++++++- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c | 3 +-- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c | 8 ++++---- 4 files changed, 16 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.h b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.h index 2dedd43..956fe26 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.h +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.h @@ -2121,6 +2121,9 @@ void i915_gem_track_fb(struct drm_i915_gem_object *old, * number comparisons on buffer last_read|write_seqno.
