My dma-fence lockdep annotations caught an inversion because we

kmem_cache_alloc+0x2b/0x6d0

amdgpu_ib_schedule+0x306/0x550 [amdgpu]

drm_sched_main+0x1b9/0x490 [gpu_sched]
kthread+0x12e/0x150
Trouble right now is that lockdep only validates against GFP_FS, which
would be good enough for shrinkers. But for mmu_notifiers we actually
need !GFP_ATOMIC, since they can be called from any page laundering,
even if GFP_NOFS or GFP_NOIO are set.
I guess we should improve the lockdep annotations for
fs_reclaim_acquire/release.
Ofc real fix is to properly preallocate this fence and stuff it into
the amdgpu job structure. But GFP_ATOMIC gets the lockdep splat out of
the way.
v2: Two more allocations in scheduler paths.
Frist one:
__kmalloc+0x58/0x720
amdgpu_vmid_grab+0x100/0xca0 [amdgpu]
amdgpu_job_dependency+0xf9/0x120 [amdgpu]
drm_sched_entity_pop_job+0x3f/0x440 [gpu_sched]
drm_sched_main+0xf9/0x490 [gpu_sched]
Second one:
kmem_cache_alloc+0x2b/0x6d0
amdgpu_sync_fence+0x7e/0x110 [amdgpu]
amdgpu_vmid_grab+0x86b/0xca0 [amdgpu]
amdgpu_job_dependency+0xf9/0x120 [amdgpu]
drm_sched_entity_pop_job+0x3f/0x440 [gpu_sched]

Has anyone from amd side started looking into how to fix this properly?
Yeah I checked both and neither are any real problem.
I'm confused ... do you mean "no real problem fixing them" or "not
actually a real problem"?
Both, at least the VMID stuff is trivial to avoid.
And the fence allocation is extremely unlikely. E.g. when we allocate a
new one we previously most likely just freed one already.
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.
We do have hard upper limits for those.
The VMID allocation could as well just return the fence instead of putting
it into the sync object IIRC. So that just needs some cleanup and can avoid
the allocation entirely.
Yeah embedding should be simplest solution of all.
The hardware fence is limited by the number of submissions we can have
concurrently on the ring buffers, so also not a problem at all.
Ok that sounds good. Wrt releasing the memory again, is that also done
without any of the allocation-side locks held? I've seen some vmid manager
somewhere ...
Well that's the issue. We can't guarantee that for the hardware fence
memory since it could be that we hold another reference during debugging
IIRC.
Still looking if and how we could fix this. But as I said this problem
is so extremely unlikely.

- 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?
Cheers, Daniel
