[065/103] drm: Hold the mutex when dropping the last GEM reference (v2)

From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Oct 22 2010 - 15:08:24 EST


2.6.35-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 39b4d07aa3583ceefe73622841303a0a3e942ca1 upstream.

In order to be fully threadsafe we need to check that the drm_gem_object
refcount is still 0 after acquiring the mutex in order to call the free
function. Otherwise, we may encounter scenarios like:

Thread A: Thread B:
drm_gem_close
unreference_unlocked
kref_put mutex_lock
... i915_gem_evict
... kref_get -> BUG
... i915_gem_unbind
... kref_put
... i915_gem_object_free
... mutex_unlock
mutex_lock
i915_gem_object_free -> BUG
i915_gem_object_unbind
kfree
mutex_unlock

Note that no driver is currently using the free_unlocked vfunc and it is
scheduled for removal, hasten that process.
