It seems it is only safe to rcu_read_unlock before signaling if using the embedded fence (later in the series).

And you think there is nothing to gain with the option of keeping the rcu_read_unlock() to after signalling? Ie. why not plug a potential race if we can for no negative effect. I thought quite a bit over that, but at least of hand I can't come up with a reason why we should do this. The signaling path doesn't need the RCU read side lock as far as I can see.

[RFC PATCH 0/2] locking/ww_mutex, dma-buf/dma-resv: Improve detection of unheld locks

by Thomas Hellström

WW mutexes and dma-resv objects, which embed them, typically have a number of locks belocking to the same lock class. However code using them typically want to verify the locking on object granularity, not lock-class granularity. This series add ww_mutex functions to facilitate that, (patch 1) and utilizes these functions in the dma-resv lock checks.

[PATCH v8 00/11] vfio/pci: Allow MMIO regions to be exported through dma-buf

by Leon Romanovsky

Changelog: v8: * Fixed spelling errors in p2pdma documentation file. * Added vdev->pci_ops check for NULL in vfio_pci_core_feature_dma_buf(). * Simplified the nvgrace_get_dmabuf_phys() function. * Added extra check in pcim_p2pdma_provider() to catch missing call to pcim_p2pdma_init(). v7: https://patch.msgid.link/20251106-dmabuf-vfio-v7-0-2503bf390699@nvidia.com * Dropped restore_revoke flag and added vfio_pci_dma_buf_move to reverse loop. * Fixed spelling errors in documentation patch. * Rebased on top of v6.18-rc3. * Added include to stddef.h to vfio.h, to keep uapi header file independent. v6: https://patch.msgid.link/20251102-dmabuf-vfio-v6-0-d773cff0db9f@nvidia.com * Fixed wrong error check from pcim_p2pdma_init(). * Documented pcim_p2pdma_provider() function. * Improved commit messages. * Added VFIO DMA-BUF selftest, not sent yet. * Added __counted_by(nr_ranges) annotation to struct vfio_device_feature_dma_buf. * Fixed error unwind when dma_buf_fd() fails. * Document latest changes to p2pmem. * Removed EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL from pci_p2pdma_map_type. * Moved DMA mapping logic to DMA-BUF. * Removed types patch to avoid dependencies between subsystems. * Moved vfio_pci_dma_buf_move() in err_undo block. * Added nvgrace patch. v5: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1760368250.git.leon@kernel.org * Rebased on top of v6.18-rc1. * Added more validation logic to make sure that DMA-BUF length doesn't overflow in various scenarios. * Hide kernel config from the users. * Fixed type conversion issue. DMA ranges are exposed with u64 length, but DMA-BUF uses "unsigned int" as a length for SG entries. * Added check to prevent from VFIO drivers which reports BAR size different from PCI, do not use DMA-BUF functionality. v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1759070796.git.leon@kernel.org * Split pcim_p2pdma_provider() to two functions, one that initializes array of providers and another to return right provider pointer. v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1758804980.git.leon@kernel.org * Changed pcim_p2pdma_enable() to be pcim_p2pdma_provider(). * Cache provider in vfio_pci_dma_buf struct instead of BAR index. * Removed misleading comment from pcim_p2pdma_provider(). * Moved MMIO check to be in pcim_p2pdma_provider(). v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1757589589.git.leon@kernel.org/ * Added extra patch which adds new CONFIG, so next patches can reuse * it. * Squashed "PCI/P2PDMA: Remove redundant bus_offset from map state" into the other patch. * Fixed revoke calls to be aligned with true->false semantics. * Extended p2pdma_providers to be per-BAR and not global to whole * device. * Fixed possible race between dmabuf states and revoke. * Moved revoke to PCI BAR zap block. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1754311439.git.leon@kernel.org * Changed commit messages. * Reused DMA_ATTR_MMIO attribute. * Returned support for multiple DMA ranges per-dMABUF. v0: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1753274085.git.leonro@nvidia.com --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on "[PATCH v6 00/16] dma-mapping: migrate to physical address-based API" https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1757423202.git.leonro@nvidia.com/ series. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This series extends the VFIO PCI subsystem to support exporting MMIO regions from PCI device BARs as dma-buf objects, enabling safe sharing of non-struct page memory with controlled lifetime management. This allows RDMA and other subsystems to import dma-buf FDs and build them into memory regions for PCI P2P operations. The series supports a use case for SPDK where a NVMe device will be owned by SPDK through VFIO but interacting with a RDMA device. The RDMA device may directly access the NVMe CMB or directly manipulate the NVMe device's doorbell using PCI P2P. However, as a general mechanism, it can support many other scenarios with VFIO. This dmabuf approach can be usable by iommufd as well for generic and safe P2P mappings. In addition to the SPDK use-case mentioned above, the capability added in this patch series can also be useful when a buffer (located in device memory such as VRAM) needs to be shared between any two dGPU devices or instances (assuming one of them is bound to VFIO PCI) as long as they are P2P DMA compatible. The implementation provides a revocable attachment mechanism using dma-buf move operations. MMIO regions are normally pinned as BARs don't change physical addresses, but access is revoked when the VFIO device is closed or a PCI reset is issued. This ensures kernel self-defense against potentially hostile userspace. The series includes significant refactoring of the PCI P2PDMA subsystem to separate core P2P functionality from memory allocation features, making it more modular and suitable for VFIO use cases that don't need struct page support. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The series is based originally on https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250307052248.405803-1-vivek.kasireddy@intel.c… but heavily rewritten to be based on DMA physical API. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The WIP branch can be found here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/leon/linux-rdma.git/log/?h=… Thanks --- Jason Gunthorpe (2): PCI/P2PDMA: Document DMABUF model vfio/nvgrace: Support get_dmabuf_phys Leon Romanovsky (7): PCI/P2PDMA: Separate the mmap() support from the core logic PCI/P2PDMA: Simplify bus address mapping API PCI/P2PDMA: Refactor to separate core P2P functionality from memory allocation PCI/P2PDMA: Provide an access to pci_p2pdma_map_type() function dma-buf: provide phys_vec to scatter-gather mapping routine vfio/pci: Enable peer-to-peer DMA transactions by default vfio/pci: Add dma-buf export support for MMIO regions Vivek Kasireddy (2): vfio: Export vfio device get and put registration helpers vfio/pci: Share the core device pointer while invoking feature functions Documentation/driver-api/pci/p2pdma.rst | 95 +++++++--- block/blk-mq-dma.c | 2 +- drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf.c | 235 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/iommu/dma-iommu.c | 4 +- drivers/pci/p2pdma.c | 186 ++++++++++++++----- drivers/vfio/pci/Kconfig | 3 + drivers/vfio/pci/Makefile | 1 + drivers/vfio/pci/nvgrace-gpu/main.c | 56 ++++++ drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci.c | 5 + drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_config.c | 22 ++- drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_core.c | 53 ++++-- drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_dmabuf.c | 315 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci_priv.h | 23 +++ drivers/vfio/vfio_main.c | 2 + include/linux/dma-buf.h | 18 ++ include/linux/pci-p2pdma.h | 120 +++++++----- include/linux/vfio.h | 2 + include/linux/vfio_pci_core.h | 42 +++++ include/uapi/linux/vfio.h | 28 +++ kernel/dma/direct.c | 4 +- mm/hmm.c | 2 +- 21 files changed, 1078 insertions(+), 140 deletions(-) --- base-commit: dcb6fa37fd7bc9c3d2b066329b0d27dedf8becaa change-id: 20251016-dmabuf-vfio-6cef732adf5a Best regards, -- Leon Romanovsky <leonro(a)nvidia.com>

Wouldn't it be possible to use lockdep_set_class_and_name() to modify the resv lock class for these particular resv objects after they are allocated? Reusing the resv code certainly sounds attractive. Thanks, Thomas

Yes, in addition, I used to separate between code authorship and my open-source activity.
