That means we can't call plane->get_hw_state() as it will also try to grab the same mutex and will thus deadlock. Replace the assert_plane() calls (which calls ->get_hw_state()) with just raw register reads in i830_disable_pipe(). As a bonus we can now get a warning if plane C is enabled even though we don't even expose it as a drm plane. v2: Do a separate WARN_ON() for each plane (Chris) Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fixes: d87ce7640295 ("drm/i915: Add .get_hw_state() method for planes") Signed-off-by: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20171129125411.29055-1-ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (cherry picked from commit 5816d9cbc0a0fbf232fe297cefcb85361a3cde90) Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c | 7 +++++-- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c @@ -14717,8 +14717,11 @@ void i830_disable_pipe(struct drm_i915_p DRM_DEBUG_KMS("disabling pipe %c due to force quirk\n", pipe_name(pipe)); - assert_planes_disabled(intel_get_crtc_for_pipe(dev_priv, PIPE_A)); - assert_planes_disabled(intel_get_crtc_for_pipe(dev_priv, PIPE_B)); + WARN_ON(I915_READ(DSPCNTR(PLANE_A)) & DISPLAY_PLANE_ENABLE); + WARN_ON(I915_READ(DSPCNTR(PLANE_B)) & DISPLAY_PLANE_ENABLE); + WARN_ON(I915_READ(DSPCNTR(PLANE_C)) & DISPLAY_PLANE_ENABLE); + WARN_ON(I915_READ(CURCNTR(PIPE_A)) & CURSOR_MODE); + WARN_ON(I915_READ(CURCNTR(PIPE_B)) & CURSOR_MODE); I915_WRITE(PIPECONF(pipe), 0); POSTING_READ(PIPECONF(pipe)); Patches currently in stable-queue which might be from ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx are queue-4.14/drm-i915-redo-plane-sanitation-during-readout.patch queue-4.14/drm-i915-add-.get_hw_state-method-for-planes.patch queue-4.14/drm-i915-fix-deadlock-in-i830_disable_pipe.patch
