[PATCH 4.7 23/59] drm/vc4: Fix overflow mem unreferencing when the binner runs dry.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 12 2016 - 11:45:33 EST


4.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Eric Anholt <eric@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9326e6f25574bbb8bd48206d245654780e3fd665 upstream.

Overflow memory handling is tricky: While it's still referenced by the
BPO registers, we want to keep it from being freed. When we are
putting a new set of overflow memory in the registers, we need to
assign the old one to the last rendering job using it.

We were looking at "what's currently running in the binner", but since
the bin/render submission split, we may end up with the binner
completing and having no new job while the renderer is still
processing. So, if we don't find a bin job at all, look at the
highest-seqno (last) render job to attach our overflow to.
