[PATCH v2] xen/gntdev: Avoid blocking in unmap_grant_pages()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



unmap_grant_pages() currently waits for the pages to no longer be used.
In https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/7481, this lead to a
deadlock against i915: i915 was waiting for gntdev's MMU notifier to
finish, while gntdev was waiting for i915 to free its pages.  I also
believe this is responsible for various deadlocks I have experienced in
the past.

Avoid these problems by making unmap_grant_pages async.  This requires
making it return void, as any errors will not be available when the
function returns.  Fortunately, the only use of the return value is a
WARN_ON(), which can be replaced by a WARN_ON when the error is
detected.  Additionally, a failed call will not prevent further calls
from being made, but this is harmless.

Because unmap_grant_pages is now async, the grant handle will be sent to
INVALID_GRANT_HANDLE too late to prevent multiple unmaps of the same
handle.  Instead, a separate bool array is allocated for this purpose.
This wastes memory, but stuffing this information in padding bytes is
too fragile.  Furthermore, it is necessary to grab a reference to the
map before making the asynchronous call, and release the reference when
the call returns.
