[PATCH] gpu: ion: Use safe version of list iterator

by Nishanth Peethambaran

On allocation or kmalloc failure in system heap allocate, the exit path iterates over the allocated page infos and frees the allocated pages and page info. The same page info structure is used as loop iterator. Use the safe version of list iterator.

[PATCH] ARM: DMA-mapping: fix memory leak in IOMMU dma-mapping implementation

by Marek Szyprowski

This patch removes page_address() usage in IOMMU-aware dma-mapping implementation and replaced it with direct use of the cpu virtual address provided by the caller. page_address() returned incorrect address for pages remapped in atomic pool, what caused memory leak.

ashmem - mmap deadlock with mmap_sem & ashmem_mutex

by Shankar Brahadeeswaran

Hi, I'm working on Android Linux Kernel Vesion 3.0.15 and seeing a "deadlock" in the ashmem driver, while handling mmap request. I seek your support in finding the correct fix. The locks that involved in the dead lock are 1) mm->mmap_sem 2) ashmem_mutex The following is the sequence of events that leads to the deadlock. There are two threads A and B that belong to the same process (system_server) and hence share the mm struct. A1) In the A's context an mmap system call is made with an fd of ashmem A2) The system call sys_mmap_pgoff acquires the mmap_sem of the "mm" and sleeps before calling the .mmap of ashmem i.e before calling ashmem_mmap Now the thread B runs and proceeds to do the following B1) In the B's context ashmem ioctl with option ASHMEM_SET_NAME is called. B2) Now the code proceeds to acquire the ashmem_mutex and performs a "copy_from_user" B3) copy_from_user raises a valid exception to copy the data from user space and proceeds to handle it gracefully, do_DataAbort --> do_page_fault B4) In do_page_fault it finds that the mm->mmap_sem is not available (Note A & B share the mm) since A has it and sleeps Now the thread A runs again A3) It proceeds to call ashmem_mmap and tries to acquired ashmem_mutex, which is not available (is with B) and sleeps. Now A has acquired mmap_sem and waits for B to release ashmem_mutex B has acquired ashmem_mutex and waits for the mmap_sem to be available, which is held by A This creates a dead lock in the system. I'm not sure how to use these locks in such a way as to prevent this scenario. Any suggestions would be of great help. Workaround: One possible work around is to replace the mutex_lock call made in the ashmem_mmap with mutex_trylock and if it fails, wait for few milliseconds and try back for few iterations and finally give up after few iterations. This will bring the system out deadlock if this scneario happens. I myself feel that this suggestion is not clean. But I'm unable to think of anything. Is there any suggestion to avoid this scenario. Warm Regards, Shankar

[PATCH 0/2] ARM: dma-mapping: add highmem support for coherent allocation

by Marek Szyprowski

Hello, This is the last missing piece to let us efficiently use large DMA buffers on systems with lots of memory, which have support for himem enabled. The first patch adds support for CMA regions placed in high memory zones, the second one also enables allocations of individual pages from high memory zone for IOMMU-mapped devices. Those two changes let us to significantly save low memory for other tasks.

In case you'll re-use these abbrevs in later posts, I think it would be good to mention that DPI is a one-way bus, whereas DBI and DSI are two-way (perhaps that's implicit with control bus, though). > 1.

What is an encoder? Something that takes a video signal in, and lets the CPU store the received data to memory? Isn't that a decoder? Or do you mean something that takes a video signal in, and outputs a video signal in another format? (transcoder?) If the latter, I don't see them as lower priority. If we use CDF also for SoC internal components (which I think would be great), then every OMAP board has transcoders. I'm not sure about the vocabulary on this area, but a normal OMAP scenario could have a following video pipeline: 1. encoder (OMAP's DISPC, reads pixels from memory and outputs parallel RGB) 2. transcoder (OMAP's DSI, gets parallel RGB and outputs DSI) 3. transcoder (external DSI-to-LVDS chip) 4. panel (LVDS panel) Even in the case where a panel would be connected directly to the OMAP, there would be the internal transcoder. > 2.

That said, I'm fine with leaving omap_vout out from the equation. > 3.

I've been thinking that a good rule of thumb would be that the device must be somewhat usable after the parent bus is ready. So for, say, DPI+SPI panel, when the SPI is set up the driver can send messages to the panel, perhaps read an ID or such, even if the actual video cannot be shown yet (presuming DPI bus is still missing). Of course there are the funny cases, as always. Say, a DSI panel, controlled via i2c, and the panel gets its functional clock from the DSI bus's clock. In that case both busses need to be up and running before the panel can do anything. > - Combined video and control busses > > When the two busses are combined in a single physical bus the panel device > will obviously be represented as a child of that single physical bus. > > In such cases the control bus could expose video bus control methods.

The I have luckily not encountered such a device. However, many of the DSI devices do have i2c control as an option. From the device's point of view, both can be used at the same time, but I think usually it's saner to just pick one and use it. The driver for the device should support both control busses, though. Probably 99% of the driver code is common for both cases. > 6. Miscellaneous > ---------------- > > - If the OMAP3 DSS driver is used as a model for the DSI support > implementation, Daniel Vetter requested the DSI bus lock semaphore to be > killed as it prevents lockdep from working correctly (reference needed ;-)). I don't think OMAP DSS should be used as a model. It has too much legacy crap that should be rewritten. However, it can be used as a reference to see what kind of features are needed, as it does support both video and command mode DSI modes, and has been used with many different kinds of DSI panels and DSI transcoders. As for the semaphore, sure, it can be removed, although I'm not aware of this lockdep problem. If there's a problem it should be fixed in any case. > - Do we need to support chaining several encoders ? We can come up with > several theoretical use cases, some of them probably exist in real hardware, > but the details are still a bit fuzzy. If encoder means the same as the "transcoder" term I used earlier, then yes, I think so. As I wrote, I'd like to model the OMAP DSS internal components with CDF. The internal IP blocks are in no way different than external IP blocks, they just happen to be integrated into OMAP. The same display IPs are used with multiple different TI SoCs. Also, the IPs vary between TI SoCs (for ex, omap2 doesn't have DSI, omap3 has one DSI, omap4 has two DSIs), so we'll anyway need to have some kind of dynamic system inside omapdss driver. If I can't use CDF for that, I'll need to implement a custom one, which I believe would resemble CDF in many ways. I'm guessing that having multiple external transcoders is quite rare on production hardware, but is a very useful feature with development boards. It's not just once or twice that we've used a transcoder or two between a SoC and a panel, because we haven't had the final panel yet. Also, sometimes there are small simple chips in the video pipeline, that do things like level shifting or ESD protection. In some cases these chips just work automatically, but in some cases one needs to setup regulators and gpios to get them up and running (for example, http://www.ti.com/product/tpd12s015). And if that's the case, then I believe having a CDF "transcoder" driver for the chip is the easiest solution. Tomi

[RESEND][PATCH] ARM: dma-mapping: Add maximum alignment order for dma iommu buffers

[PATCH 0/7] cross-device reservation for dma-buf support

by Maarten Lankhorst

So I'm resending the patch series for reservations. This is identical to my git tree at http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~mlankhorst/linux/ Some changes have been made since my last version. Most notably is the use of mutexes now instead of creating my own lock primitive, that would end up being duplicate anyway. The git tree also has a version of i915 and radeon working together like that. It's probably a bit hacky, but it works on my macbook pro 8.2. :) I haven't had any reply on the mutex extensions when I sent them out separately, so I'm including it in the series. The idea is that for lockdep purposes, the seqno is tied to a locking a class. This locking class it not exclusive, but as can be seen from the last patch in the series, it catches all violations we care about.
