Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] drm/msm: Put the VM_BIND queue last in msm_vma_job_free()
Date: Sat, 14 Nov 2026 17:19:02 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261114081902.1669-4-arpe1618@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261114081902.1669-1-arpe1618@gmail.com>

msm_vma_job_free() puts the job's submitqueue and then wakes up
vm->prealloc_throttle.wait. The job does not hold a reference to the
VM of its own: the VM is kept alive by the context, which the queue
holds a reference to. When the job holds the last reference to the
queue, as it can once the file has been closed, for example when a
cancelled job is freed, the put can drop the last reference to the VM,
and the wakeup then uses a VM that msm_gem_vm_free() has released.

Since commit 01c8d1f385f7 ("drm/msm: RCU-free the scheduler-containing
ring and VM objects"), msm_gem_vm_free() frees the VM with kfree_rcu(),
but msm_vma_job_free() is not in an RCU read-side critical section, so
a grace period can still end before the wakeup, e.g. if the task is
preempted in between. Before that commit, the VM was freed right away.

Put the queue only after the last use of the VM.

This was found with an AI coding assistant, which also drafted this
patch and its changelog. It has not been reproduced, and the change
has only been compile-tested.
