From 6b4a08f22320f335167ff37f462a8125d440cffc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH 5501/5725] drm/amd/display: Signal hw_done() after waiting for
flip_done()
In amdgpu_dm_commit_tail(), wait until flip_done() is signaled before
we signal hw_done().
[Why]
This is to temporarily address a paging error that occurs when a
nonblocking commit contends with another commit, particularly in a
mirrored display configuration where at least 2 CRTCs are updated.
The error occurs in drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_flip_done(), when we
attempt to access the contents of new_crtc_state->commit.
Here's the sequence for a mirrored 2 display setup (irrelevant steps
left out for clarity):
**THREAD 1** | **THREAD 2**
|
Initialize atomic state for flip |
|
Queue worker |
...
| Do work for flip
|
| Signal hw_done() on CRTC 1
| Signal hw_done() on CRTC 2
|
| Wait for flip_done() on CRTC 1
<---- **PREEMPTED BY THREAD 1**
Initialize atomic state for cursor |
update (1) |
|
Do cursor update work on both CRTCs |
|
Clear atomic state (2) |
**DONE** |
...
|
| Wait for flip_done() on CRTC 2
| *ERROR*
|
The issue starts with (1). When the atomic state is initialized, the
current CRTC states are duplicated to be the new_crtc_states, and
referenced to be the old_crtc_states. (The new_crtc_states are to be
filled with update data.)
Some things to note:
* Due to the mirrored configuration, the cursor updates on both CRTCs.
* At this point, the pflip IRQ has already been handled, and flip_done
signaled on all CRTCs. The cursor commit can therefore continue.
* The old_crtc_states used by the cursor update are the **same states**
as the new_crtc_states used by the flip worker.
At (2), the old_crtc_state is freed (*), and the cursor commit
completes. We then context switch back to the flip worker, where we
attempt to access the new_crtc_state->commit object. This is
problematic, as this state has already been freed.
(*) Technically, 'state->crtcs[i].state' is freed, which was made to
reference old_crtc_state in drm_atomic_helper_swap_state()
[How]
By moving hw_done() after wait_for_flip_done(), we're guaranteed that
the new_crtc_state (from the flip worker's perspective) still exists.
This is because any other commit will be blocked, waiting for the
hw_done() signal.
Note that both the i915 and imx drivers have this sequence flipped
already, masking this problem.
