How is that supposed to work? Should the exporter fill in the xarray with values? That clearly needs more description. And IIRC xarray can only contain pointers because the lower bits are used for internal handling.

Help me out here; if you pass a u32 for a u64, doesn't the C standard guarantee that the higher, unused 32 bits will be 0?

[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.17] drm/xe: improve dma-resv handling for backup object

by Sasha Levin

From: Matthew Auld <matthew.auld(a)intel.com> [ Upstream commit edb1745fc618ba8ef63a45ce3ae60de1bdf29231 ] Since the dma-resv is shared we don't need to reserve and add a fence slot fence twice, plus no need to loop through the dependencies.

Reserving fence slots only once and adding the fence once is the correct behavior. - Specific code changes and effects - Evict path (GPU migration copy case): - Before: reserves and adds fence on both `bo->ttm.base.resv` and `backup->ttm.base.resv`. - After: reserves and adds exactly once, guarded by the shared-resv assertion. - See single reserve and add: `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1226` (reserve) and `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1237` (add fence). This is the core fix; the removed second reserve/add on the backup is the redundant part eliminated. - Restore path (migration copy back): - Same simplification: reserve once, add once on the shared `dma_resv`. - See single reserve and add: `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1375` (reserve) and `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1387` (add fence). - Dependency handling in migrate: - Before: added deps for both src and dst based only on `src_bo != dst_bo`. - After: only add dst deps if the resv objects differ, avoiding double-walking the same `dma_resv`. - See updated condition: `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c:932` (`src_bo->ttm.base.resv != dst_bo->ttm.base.resv`). - User-visible impact without the patch - Duplicate `dma_resv_add_fence()` calls on the same reservation object can: - Consume extra shared-fence slots and memory. - Inflate dependency lists, causing unnecessary scheduler waits and overhead. - Increase failure likelihood of `dma_resv_reserve_fences()` under memory pressure. - These paths are exercised during suspend/resume flows of pinned VRAM BOs (evict/restore), so reliability and performance in power transitions can be affected. - Scope and risk - Small, focused changes localized to the Intel Xe driver migration/evict/restore paths: - Files: `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c`, `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c`. - No API changes or architectural refactors; logic strictly reduces redundant operations. - The `xe_assert` acts as a safety net to catch unexpected non-shared `resv` usage; normal runtime behavior is unchanged when the invariant holds. - The CPU copy fallback paths are untouched. - Stable backport considerations - This is a clear correctness and robustness fix, not a feature. - Low regression risk if the stable branch also creates the backup BO with the parent’s `dma_resv` (as shown by the use of `xe_bo_init_locked(..., bo->ttm.base.resv, ...)` in `drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c:1309`). - If a stable branch diverges and the backup BO does not share the resv, this patch would need adjustment (i.e., keep dual reserve/add in that case). The added `xe_assert` helps surface such mismatches during testing. Conclusion: This commit fixes a real bug (duplicate fence reserve/add and duplicate dependency scanning on a shared `dma_resv`) with a minimal, well-scoped change. It aligns with stable rules (important bugfix, low risk, contained), so it should be backported. drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c | 13 +------------ drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c | 2 +- 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c index d07e23eb1a54d..5a61441d68af5 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_bo.c @@ -1242,14 +1242,11 @@ int xe_bo_evict_pinned(struct xe_bo *bo) else migrate = mem_type_to_migrate(xe, bo->ttm.resource->mem_type); + xe_assert(xe, bo->ttm.base.resv == backup->ttm.base.resv); ret = dma_resv_reserve_fences(bo->ttm.base.resv, 1); if (ret) goto out_backup; - ret = dma_resv_reserve_fences(backup->ttm.base.resv, 1); - if (ret) - goto out_backup; - fence = xe_migrate_copy(migrate, bo, backup, bo->ttm.resource, backup->ttm.resource, false); if (IS_ERR(fence)) { @@ -1259,8 +1256,6 @@ int xe_bo_evict_pinned(struct xe_bo *bo) dma_resv_add_fence(bo->ttm.base.resv, fence, DMA_RESV_USAGE_KERNEL); - dma_resv_add_fence(backup->ttm.base.resv, fence, - DMA_RESV_USAGE_KERNEL); dma_fence_put(fence); } else { ret = xe_bo_vmap(backup); @@ -1338,10 +1333,6 @@ int xe_bo_restore_pinned(struct xe_bo *bo) if (ret) goto out_unlock_bo; - ret = dma_resv_reserve_fences(backup->ttm.base.resv, 1); - if (ret) - goto out_unlock_bo; - fence = xe_migrate_copy(migrate, backup, bo, backup->ttm.resource, bo->ttm.resource, false); @@ -1352,8 +1343,6 @@ int xe_bo_restore_pinned(struct xe_bo *bo) dma_resv_add_fence(bo->ttm.base.resv, fence, DMA_RESV_USAGE_KERNEL); - dma_resv_add_fence(backup->ttm.base.resv, fence, - DMA_RESV_USAGE_KERNEL); dma_fence_put(fence); } else { ret = xe_bo_vmap(backup); diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c index 2a627ed64b8f8..ba9b8590eccb2 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_migrate.c @@ -901,7 +901,7 @@ struct dma_fence *xe_migrate_copy(struct xe_migrate *m, if (!fence) { err = xe_sched_job_add_deps(job, src_bo->ttm.base.resv, DMA_RESV_USAGE_BOOKKEEP); - if (!err && src_bo != dst_bo) + if (!err && src_bo->ttm.base.resv != dst_bo->ttm.base.resv) err = xe_sched_job_add_deps(job, dst_bo->ttm.base.resv, DMA_RESV_USAGE_BOOKKEEP); if (err) -- 2.51.0
