The validity of using READ_ONCE there depends upon having a mb to coordinate the assignment of engine->execlist_first inside submit_request() and checking prior to taking the spinlock in execlists_dequeue(). We wrote "the update to TASKLET_SCHED incurs a memory barrier making this cross-cpu checking safe", but failed to notice that this mb was *conditional* on the execlists being ready, i.e. there wasn't the required mb when it was most necessary! We could install an unconditional memory barrier to fixup the READ_ONCE(): diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c index 7dd732cb9f57..1ed164b16d44 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c @@ -616,6 +616,7 @@ static void execlists_submit_request(struct drm_i915_gem_request *request) if (insert_request(&request->priotree, &engine->execlist_queue)) { engine->execlist_first = &request->priotree.node; + smp_wmb(); if (execlists_elsp_ready(engine)) But we have opted to remove the race as it should be rarely effective, and saves us having to explain the necessary memory barriers which we quite clearly failed at.
