Hi everyone,
dma_fences have ever lived under the tyranny dictated by the module lifetime of their issuer, leading to crashes should anybody still holding a reference to a dma_fence when the module of the issuer was unloaded.
The basic problem is that when buffer are shared between drivers dma_fence objects can leak into external drivers and stay there even after they are signaled. The dma_resv object for example only lazy releases dma_fences.
So what happens is that when the module who originally created the dma_fence unloads the dma_fence_ops function table becomes unavailable as well and so any attempt to release the fence crashes the system.
Previously various approaches have been discussed, including changing the locking semantics of the dma_fence callbacks (by me) as well as using the drm scheduler as intermediate layer (by Sima) to disconnect dma_fences from their actual users, but none of them are actually solving all problems.
Tvrtko did some really nice prerequisite work by protecting the returned strings of the dma_fence_ops by RCU. This way dma_fence creators where able to just wait for an RCU grace period after fence signaling before they could be save to free those data structures.
Now this patch set here goes a step further and protects the whole dma_fence_ops structure by RCU, so that after the fence signals the pointer to the dma_fence_ops is set to NULL when there is no wait nor release callback given. All functionality which use the dma_fence_ops reference are put inside an RCU critical section, except for the deprecated issuer specific wait and of course the optional release callback.
Additional to the RCU changes the lock protecting the dma_fence state previously had to be allocated external. This set here now changes the functionality to make that external lock optional and allows dma_fences to use an inline lock and be self contained.
v4:
Rebases the whole set on upstream changes, especially the cleanup from Philip in patch "drm/amdgpu: independence for the amdkfd_fence!".
Adding two patches which brings the DMA-fence self tests up to date. The first selftest changes removes the mock_wait and so actually starts testing the default behavior instead of some hacky implementation in the test. This one got upstreamed independent of this set. The second drops the mock_fence as well and tests the new RCU and inline spinlock functionality.
v5:
Rebase on top of drm-misc-next instead of drm-tip, leave out all driver changes for now since those should go through the driver specific paths anyway.
Address a few more review comments, especially some rebase mess and typos. And finally fix one more bug found by AMDs CI system.
Especially the first patch still needs a Reviewed-by, apart from that I think I've addressed all review comments and problems.
Please review and comment, Christian.
At first glance it is counter intuitive to protect a constant function pointer table by RCU, but this allows modules providing the function table to unload by waiting for an RCU grace period.
v2: make one the now duplicated lockdep warnings a comment instead. v3: Add more documentation to ->wait and ->release callback. v4: fix typo in documentation v5: rebased on drm-tip

Hi Christian,
kernel test robot noticed the following build warnings:
New warnings aside, some of the old ones are caused by my changes last year. I sent a fix back then:
https://lore.kernel.org/dri-devel/20250616155952.24259-1-tvrtko.ursulin@igal...
But it seems to have fallen through the cracks.
Maybe pull it to your series Christian to make sure you are getting report for only new warnings with any future respins?
Regards,
Tvrtko

Good point.
At which point however it would start exploding?
When we start setting the ops pointer to NULL in the next patch.
Which also means the new API is racy by definition and can give false positives if fence would be to be signaled as someone is checking.
Oh, that is a really really good point. I haven't thought about that because all current users would check the fence only after it is signaled.
Hmm.. is the new API too weak, being able to only be called under very limited circumstances?
Yes, exactly that. All callers use this only to decide on the correct cleanup path.
So the fence is either fully signaled or was never initialized in the first place.
Would it be better to solve it in the drivers by tracking state?
The alternative I had in mind was to use another DMA_FENCE_FLAG_... for that.
I will probably use that approach instead, just to make it extra defensive.
Thanks, Christian.

Flags sounds okay-ish. I mean it is a bit roundabout to track the state and export API only useful for some driver flows, not least that zero alloc of the object itself is not mandatory to begin with, but I guess it is passable.
Hm... it could even be solved with "DMA_FENCE_FLAG_USER_BITS+1". Since only two drivers need this maybe something to consider.

Tvrtko
When neither a release nor a wait backend ops is specified it is possible to let the dma_fence live on independently of the module who issued it.
This makes it possible to unload drivers and only wait for all their fences to signal.

Add dma_fence_lock_irqsafe() and dma_fence_unlock_irqrestore() wrappers and mechanically apply them everywhere.
Just a pre-requisite cleanup for a follow up patch.

Implement per-fence spinlocks, allowing implementations to not give an external spinlock to protect the fence internal statei. Instead a spinlock embedded into the fence structure itself is used in this case.
Shared spinlocks have the problem that implementations need to guarantee that the lock live at least as long all fences referencing them.
Using a per-fence spinlock allows completely decoupling spinlock producer and consumer life times, simplifying the handling in most use cases.
v2: improve naming, coverage and function documentation v3: fix one additional locking in the selftests v4: separate out some changes to make the patch smaller, fix one amdgpu crash found by CI systems

Implement per-fence spinlocks, allowing implementations to not give an external spinlock to protect the fence internal statei. Instead a spinlock embedded into the fence structure itself is used in this case.
Shared spinlocks have the problem that implementations need to guarantee that the lock live at least as long all fences referencing them.
Using a per-fence spinlock allows completely decoupling spinlock producer and consumer life times, simplifying the handling in most use cases.
v2: improve naming, coverage and function documentation v3: fix one additional locking in the selftests v4: separate out some changes to make the patch smaller, fix one amdgpu crash found by CI systems

Only now I see this helper should also be separated out into the previous patch. Sorry if previously I was talking aobut lock/unlock helpers, but that wasn't specifically excluding this one. All mechanical stuff is best to be separate.

Using the inline lock is now the recommended way for dma_fence implementations.
So use this approach for the framework's internal fences as well.
Also saves about 4 bytes for the external spinlock.

Using the inline lock is now the recommended way for dma_fence implementations.
For the scheduler fence use the inline lock for the scheduled fence part and then the lock from the scheduled fence as external lock for the finished fence.
This way there is no functional difference, except for saving the space for the separate lock.

I think while you are correct that this is no functional difference, it is still a bad idea which violates the entire idea of your series:
All fences are now independent from each other and the fence context – except for those two.
Some fences are more equal than others ;)
By implementing this, you would also show to people browsing the code that it can be a good idea or can be done to have fences share locks. Do you want that?
As far as I have learned from you and our discussions, that would be a very bombastic violation of the sacred "dma-fence-rules".
I believe it's definitely worth sacrificing some bytes so that those two fences get fully decoupled. Who will have it on their radar that they are special? Think about future reworks.
Besides that, no objections from my side.

Yeah, I was going back and forth once more if I should keep this patch at all or just drop it.
By implementing this, you would also show to people browsing the code that it can be a good idea or can be done to have fences share locks. Do you want that?
Good question. For almost all cases we don't want this, but once more the scheduler is special.
In the scheduler we have two fences in one, the scheduled one and the finished one.
So here it technically makes sense to have this construct to be defensive.
But on the other hand it has no practical value because it still doesn't allow us to unload the scheduler module. We would need a much wider rework for being able to do that.
So maybe I should just really drop this patch or at least keep it back until we had time to figure out what the next steps are.
As far as I have learned from you and our discussions, that would be a very bombastic violation of the sacred "dma-fence-rules".
Well using the inline fence is "only" a strong recommendation. It's not as heavy as the signaling rules because when you mess up those you can easily kill the whole system.
I believe it's definitely worth sacrificing some bytes so that those two fences get fully decoupled. Who will have it on their radar that they are special? Think about future reworks.
This doesn't even save any bytes, my thinking was more that this is the more defensive approach should anybody use the spinlock pointer from the scheduler fence to do some locking.
Besides that, no objections from my side.

Using the scheduler's internal locks is not legal (anymore). With the sched_fence it's a bit special though because that is the synchronization object for the driver, actually. So I don't know either.
I would say either separate the locks, or drop the patch as you suggest.

Hi everyone,
dma_fences have ever lived under the tyranny dictated by the module lifetime of their issuer, leading to crashes should anybody still holding a reference to a dma_fence when the module of the issuer was unloaded.
The basic problem is that when buffer are shared between drivers dma_fence objects can leak into external drivers and stay there even after they are signaled. The dma_resv object for example only lazy releases dma_fences.
So what happens is that when the module who originally created the dma_fence unloads the dma_fence_ops function table becomes unavailable as well and so any attempt to release the fence crashes the system.
Previously various approaches have been discussed, including changing the locking semantics of the dma_fence callbacks (by me) as well as using the drm scheduler as intermediate layer (by Sima) to disconnect dma_fences from their actual users, but none of them are actually solving all problems.
Tvrtko did some really nice prerequisite work by protecting the returned strings of the dma_fence_ops by RCU. This way dma_fence creators where able to just wait for an RCU grace period after fence signaling before they could be save to free those data structures.
Now this patch set here goes a step further and protects the whole dma_fence_ops structure by RCU, so that after the fence signals the pointer to the dma_fence_ops is set to NULL when there is no wait nor release callback given. All functionality which use the dma_fence_ops reference are put inside an RCU critical section, except for the deprecated issuer specific wait and of course the optional release callback.
Additional to the RCU changes the lock protecting the dma_fence state previously had to be allocated external. This set here now changes the functionality to make that external lock optional and allows dma_fences to use an inline lock and be self contained.
v4:
Rebases the whole set on upstream changes, especially the cleanup from Philip in patch "drm/amdgpu: independence for the amdkfd_fence!".
Adding two patches which brings the DMA-fence self tests up to date. The first selftest changes removes the mock_wait and so actually starts testing the default behavior instead of some hacky implementation in the test. This one got upstreamed independent of this set. The second drops the mock_fence as well and tests the new RCU and inline spinlock functionality.
v5:
Rebase on top of drm-misc-next instead of drm-tip, leave out all driver changes for now since those should go through the driver specific paths anyway.
Address a few more review comments, especially some rebase mess and typos. And finally fix one more bug found by AMDs CI system.
Especially the first patch still needs a Reviewed-by, apart from that I think I've addressed all review comments and problems.
Please review and comment, Christian.
You forgot Danilo, who is also a drm_sched maintainer. +Cc.
