This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/ttm: Fix a deadlock if the target BO is not idle during swap to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: drm-ttm-fix-a-deadlock-if-the-target-bo-is-not-idle-.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 096e02f7be910b6d1ec893e8247e6a84a67a9752 Author: xinhui pan <xinhui.pan@xxxxxxx> Date: Tue Sep 7 12:08:32 2021 +0800 drm/ttm: Fix a deadlock if the target BO is not idle during swap [ Upstream commit 70982eef4d7eebb47a3b1ef25ec1bc742f3a21cf ] The ret value might be -EBUSY, caller will think lru lock is still locked but actually NOT. So return -ENOSPC instead. Otherwise we hit list corruption. ttm_bo_cleanup_refs might fail too if BO is not idle. If we return 0, caller(ttm_tt_populate -> ttm_global_swapout ->ttm_device_swapout) will be stuck as we actually did not free any BO memory. This usually happens when the fence is not signaled for a long time.
