The race is between drm_vblank_get/put and vblank_handler contexts.

When made synchronous:

while calling drm_vblank_get, the callstack looks like below:
drm_vblank_get -> drm_vblank_enable (acquires vblank_time_lock) ->
__enable_vblank -> dpu_crtc_vblank -> dpu_encoder_toggle_vblank_for_crtc
(tries to acquire enc_spinlock)

In vblank handler, the call stack will be:
dpu_encoder_phys_vid_vblank_irq -> dpu_encoder_vblank_callback (acquires enc_spinlock) -> dpu_crtc_vblank_callback -> drm_handle_vblank (tries to
acquire vblank_time_lock)

Hmm, I'm not sure how this can happen. We acquire and release the
enc_spinlock
before enabling the irq, yes we will hold on to the vbl_time_lock, but we shouldn't be trying to reacquire an encoder's spinlock after we've enabled
it.
In the synchronous approach dpu_encoder_toggle_vblank_for_crtc(which acquires the enc_spinlock) will be called while we
are holding the vbl_time_lock.

I don't know how that can deadlock, since we should never be running
enable and
the handler concurrently.

I agree that vblank_irq handler should not be running before the enable sequence. But don't you expect the handler to be running while calling the vblank_disable sequence? vbl disable will try to acquire the locks in the opposite order to that of irq_handler and the
same issue is bound to happen.

With your patch, you should be able to simulate this deadlock if you can inject a delay
by adding a pr_err log in vblank_ctrl_queue_work

Thanks,
Jeykumar S.

The only thing I can think of is that the vblank interrupts are firing
after
vblank has been disabled? In that case, it seems like we should properly
flush
them.

Even with your patch above, I see frame is getting stuck but it recovers
in
a while.
The patch I tried was assigning
crtc->funcs->enable_vblank/disable_vblank so
that
__enable_vblank can call crtc directly. But the above callstack is still
valid for your patch.
