2008-03-14drm: Fix race that can lockup the kernelMike Isely
The i915_vblank_swap() function schedules an automatic buffer swap upon receipt of the vertical sync interrupt. Such an operation is lengthy so it can't be allowed to happen in normal interrupt context, thus the DRM implements this by scheduling the work in a kernel softirq-scheduled tasklet. In order for the buffer swap to work safely, the DRM's central lock must be taken, via a call to drm_lock_take() located in drivers/char/drm/drm_irq.c within the function drm_locked_tasklet_func(). The lock-taking logic uses a non-interrupt-blocking spinlock to implement the manipulations needed to take the lock. This semantic would be safe if all attempts to use the spinlock only happen from process context. However this buffer swap happens from softirq context which is really a form of interrupt context. Thus we have an unsafe situation, in that drm_locked_tasklet_func() can block on a spinlock already taken by a thread in process context which will never get scheduled again because of the blocked softirq tasklet. This wedges the kernel hard. To trigger this bug, run a dual-head cloned mode configuration which uses the i915 drm, then execute an opengl application which synchronizes buffer swaps against the vertical sync interrupt. In my testing, a lockup always results after running anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour and a half. I believe dual-head is needed to really trigger the problem because then the vertical sync interrupt handling is no longer predictable (due to being interrupt-sourced from two different heads running at different speeds). This raises the probability of the tasklet trying to run while the userspace DRI is doing things to the GPU (and manipulating the DRM lock). The fix is to change the relevant spinlock semantics to be the interrupt-blocking form. After this change I am no longer able to trigger the lockup; the longest test run so far was 20 hours (test stopped after that point). Note: I have examined the places where this spinlock is being employed; all are reasonably short bounded sequences and should be suitable for interrupts being blocked without impacting overall kernel interrupt response latency.

2007-07-20Replace DRM_IOCTL_ARGS with (dev, data, file_priv) and remove DRM_DEVICE.Eric Anholt
The data is now in kernel space, copied in/out as appropriate according to the This results in DRM_COPY_{TO,FROM}_USER going away, and error paths to deal with those failures. This also means that XFree86 4.2.0 support for i810 DRM is lost.
2007-07-20Replace filp in ioctl arguments with drm_file *file_priv.Eric Anholt
As a fallout, replace filp storage with file_priv storage for "unique identifier of a client" all over the DRM. There is a 1:1 mapping, so this should be a noop. This could be a minor performance improvement, as everything on Linux dereferenced filp to get file_priv anyway, while only the mmap ioctls went the other direction.
2007-07-20Remove DRM_ERR OS macro.Eric Anholt
This was used to make all ioctl handlers return -errno on linux and errno on *BSD. Instead, just return -errno in shared code, and flip sign on return from shared code to *BSD code.

2007-02-13Bugzilla Bug #9457Thomas Hellstrom
Add refcounting of user waiters to the DRM hardware lock, so that we can use the DRM_LOCK_CONT flag more conservatively. Also add a kernel waiter refcount that if nonzero transfers the lock for the kernel context, when it is released. This is useful when waiting for idle and can be used for very simple fence object driver implementations for the new memory manager. It also resolves the AIGLX startup deadlock for the sis and the via drivers. i810, i830 still require that the hardware lock is really taken so the deadlock remains for those two. I'm not sure about ffb. Anyone familiar with that code?

flag DMA_QUIESCENT (typically the X server), but gets interrupted by a signal. The locking IOCTL should then return an error, but if DMA_QUIESCENT succeeds it returns 0, and the client falsely thinks it has the lock. In addition The client waits for DMA_QUISCENT and possibly DMA_READY without having the lock.
