eb_destroy currently cleans up the refcounts for all the VMAs done at lookup. Currently eb_lookup_vmas cleans up all the *objects* we've looked up. There exists a period of time when we under severe memory pressure, the VMA creation will fail, and fall into our exit path. When the above event occurs, the object list, and eb->vma list are not equal, the latter being a subset of the former. As we attempt to clean up the refcounts on the error path we have the potential to decrement the refcount by one extra here. commit 27173f1f95db5e74ceb35fe9a2f2f348ea11bac9 Author: Ben Widawsky <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Aug 14 11:38:36 2013 +0200 drm/i915: Convert execbuf code to use vmas Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Ben Widawsky <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_execbuffer.c | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_execbuffer.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_execbuffer.c index c7af371..b5c940a 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_execbuffer.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_execbuffer.c @@ -167,6 +167,13 @@ eb_lookup_vmas(struct eb_vmas *eb, out: + /* eb_vmas are cleaned up by destroy.
