From 2facdd6002ad67357dd7f77a388ae602bc910ace Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Thomas=20Hellstr=C3=B6m?= Date: Fri, 28 Apr 2023 14:52:32 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] dma-buf/dma-fence: Use a successful read_trylock() annotation for dma_fence_begin_signalling() MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Condsider the following call sequence: /* Upper layer */ dma_fence_begin_signalling(); lock(tainted_shared_lock); /* Driver callback */ dma_fence_begin_signalling(); ... The driver might here use a utility that is annotated as intended for the dma-fence signalling critical path. Now if the upper layer isn't correctly annotated yet for whatever reason, resulting in /* Upper layer */ lock(tainted_shared_lock); /* Driver callback */ dma_fence_begin_signalling(); We will receive a false lockdep locking order violation notification from dma_fence_begin_signalling(). However entering a dma-fence signalling critical section itself doesn't block and could not cause a deadlock. So use a successful read_trylock() annotation instead for dma_fence_begin_signalling(). That will make sure that the locking order is correctly registered in the first case, and doesn't register any locking order in the second case. The alternative is of course to make sure that the "Upper layer" is always correctly annotated. But experience shows that's not easily achievable in all cases.
