Subject: [PATCH v2 16/17] drm/panthor: Add a debugfs knob to simulate unplug failures
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 12:17:50 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260811-panthor-unplug-fixes-v2-16-6b583e37f9ae@collabora.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260811-panthor-unplug-fixes-v2-0-6b583e37f9ae@collabora.com>
Unplug failures are almost impossible to reproduce in practice, so let's
add a debugfs knob to simulate those.
With this new knob, we can check this error case with the following
sequence:
# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/dri/128/fake_unplug_failure
# <start-some-GPU-workload>
# echo fb000000.gpu > /sys/module/panthor/drivers/platform\:panthor/unbind
# <stop-the-GPU-workload>
