Importing dmabuf into a USB-based driver fails, which break joining and mirroring of display in X11. For USB devices, pick the associated USB controller as attachment device, so that it can perform DMA. If the DMa controller does not support DMA transfers, we're aout of luck and cannot import.

Why isn't this an issue with the existing storage or v4l USB devices?The trouble is that this is a regression fix for 5.9, because the dma-api got more opinionated about what it allows. The proper fix is a lot more invasive (we essentially need to rework the drm_prime.c to allow dma-buf importing for just cpu access), and that's a ton more invasive than just a small patch with can stuff into stable kernels. This here is ugly, but it should at least get rid of black screens again. I think solid FIXME comment explaining the situation would be good.Why can't I take a USB patch for a regression fix? Is drm somehow stand-alone that you make changes here that should belong in other subsystems? {hint, it shouldn't be} When you start poking in the internals of usb controller structures, that logic belongs in the USB core for all drivers to use, not in a random tiny subsystem where no USB developer will ever notice it? :)Because the usb fix isn't the right fix here, it's just the duct-tape. We don't want to dig around in these internals, it's just a convenient way to shut up the dma-api until drm has sorted out its confusion. We can polish the turd if you want, but the thing is, it's still a turd ... The right fix is to change drm_prime.c code to not call dma_map_sg when we don't need it. The problem is that roughly 3 layers of code (drm_prime, dma-buf, gem shmem helpers) are involved. Plus, since drm_prime is shared by all drm drivers, all other drm drivers are impacted too. We're not going to be able to cc: stable that kind of stuff. Thomas actually started with that series, until I pointed out how bad things really are. And before you ask: The dma-api change makes sense, and dma-api vs drm relations are strained since years, so we're not going ask for some hack there for our abuse to paper over the regression. I've been in way too many of those threads, only result is shouting and failed anger management.Let's do it right. If this is a regression from 5.9, it isn't a huge one as that kernel was released last October. I don't like to see this messing around with USB internals in non-USB-core code please.
I get > git tag --contains 6eb0233ec2d0 ... v5.10-rc1 ...as the first upstream release. The regression is only now hitting bleeding-edge distros. And those USB adapters are used as secondary, additional graphics cards, so it's not like most users will see the issue immediately after upgrading.
Display mirroring/joining is the typical way of using these adapters. Their main use case is now broken.
