[ Upstream commit 60b801999c48b6c1dd04e653a38e2e613664264e ] After an event is sent, we try to copy it into the user buffer of the first waiter in drm_read() and if the user buffer doesn't have enough room we put it back onto the list. However, we didn't wake up any subsequent waiter, so that event may sit on the list until either a new vblank event is sent or a new waiter appears. Rare, but in the worst case may lead to a stuck process.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
