I looked a bit into fixing this with mempool, and the big guarantee we need is that - there's a hard upper limit on how many allocations we minimally need to guarantee forward progress. And the entire vmid allocation and amdgpu_sync_fence stuff kinda makes me question that's a valid assumption. - mempool_free must be called without any locks in the way which are held while we call mempool_alloc. Otherwise we again have a nice deadlock with no forward progress. I tried auditing that, but got lost in amdgpu and scheduler code. Some lockdep annotations for mempool.c might help, but they're not going to catch everything. Plus it would be again manual annotations because this is yet another cross-release issue. So not sure that helps at all. iow, not sure what to do here. Ideas?
