This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/atomic: clear out fence when duplicating state to the 4.9-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-atomic-clear-out-fence-when-duplicating-state.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From l.stach@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fri Jan 27 15:34:48 2017 From: Lucas Stach <l.stach@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 27 Jan 2017 11:33:04 +0100 Subject: drm/atomic: clear out fence when duplicating state To: David Airlie <airlied@xxxxxxxx> Cc: dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Daniel Vetter <daniel@xxxxxxxx>, Fabio Estevam <festevam@xxxxxxxxx>, kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, patchwork-lst@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Message-ID: <20170127103304.27613-1-l.stach@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> From: Lucas Stach <l.stach@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [Fixed differently in 4.10] The fence needs to be cleared out, otherwise the following commit might wait on a stale fence from the previous commit. This was fixed as a side effect of 9626014258a5 (drm/fence: add in-fences support) in kernel 4.10. As this commit introduces new functionality and as such can not be applied to stable, this patch is the minimal fix for the kernel 4.9 stable series.
