is it safe to call vgem_gem_put_pages if vgem_gem_get_pages failed (I mean ret < 0 was returned) ?
return NULL;

- BUG_ON(obj->pages == NULL);
- sg = drm_prime_pages_to_sg(obj->pages, obj->base.size / PAGE_SIZE);
if drm_prime_pages_to_sg fails then you should call vgem_gem_put_pages for cleanup.
- return sg;

The documentation of DMABUF says fallowing words about map_dma_buf callback.
"It is one of the buffer operations that must be implemented by the exporter. It should return the sg_table containing scatterlist for this buffer, mapped into caller's address space."
The scatterlist returned by drm_prime_pages_to_sg is not mapped to any device. The map_dma_buf callback should call dma_map_sg for caller device, which is attachment->dev. Otherwise the implementation is not consistent with the DMABUF spec.
I think that it should be chosen to change implementation in map_dma_buf in DRM drivers or to drop mentioned sentence from the DMABUF spec.
I bear to the second solution because IMO there is no reliable way of mapping a scatterlist to importer device by an exporter. The dma_map_sg could be used but not all drivers makes use of DMA framework.
Sumit, what is your opinion about it?
