Hi, Dmitry,

Drivers that use drm_gem_mmap() and drm_gem_mmap_obj() helpers don't
handle imported dma-bufs properly, which results in mapping of something
else than the imported dma-buf. On NVIDIA Tegra we get a hard lockup when
userspace writes to the memory mapping of a dma-buf that was imported
into
Tegra's DRM GEM.

Majority of DRM drivers prohibit mapping of the imported GEM objects.
Mapping of imported GEMs require special care from userspace since it
should sync dma-buf because mapping coherency of the exporter device may
not match the DRM device. Let's prohibit the mapping for all DRM drivers
for consistency.

This might break drivers whose obj->funcs->mmap() callback already
handles this case, and has userspace that does the right thing.
The drm-shmem helper should be the only that maps imported GEMs
properly, but drivers that use drm-shmem already prohibit to map
imported GEMs. Okay, I'll try to re-check once again to be sure.

OK. If you aren't 100.1% sure, then please drop the Cc: stable tag and let the patch ride out at least an -rc series, because breaking a stable kernel is something we woudln't want to do.

Thanks,

I think the disabling must be checked on a per-driver basis to avoid
that; in particular drivers that already call dma_buf_mmap() should be
able to continue doing this.

Also the Fixes: review comment remains,
This should've been broken forever, don't think that we have a fixes tag
here. I looked thought all my previous patches and added the Fixes
wherever was possible. If I really missed something, then please let me
know.
