[ Upstream commit e531fdb5cd5ee2564b7fe10c8a9219e2b2fac61e ] If a signal callback releases the sw_sync fence, that will trigger a deadlock as the timeline_fence_release recurses onto the fence->lock (used both for signaling and the the timeline tree). To avoid that, temporarily hold an extra reference to the signalled fences until after we drop the lock. (This is an alternative implementation of https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11664717/ which avoids some potential UAF issues with the original patch.) v2: Remove now obsolete comment, use list_move_tail() and list_del_init() Reported-by: Bas Nieuwenhuizen <bas@basnieuwenhuizen.nl> Fixes: d3c6dd1fb30d ("dma-buf/sw_sync: Synchronize signal vs syncpt free") Signed-off-by: Rob Clark <robdclark@chromium.org> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20230818145939.39697-1-robdclark@gmail.com Reviewed-by: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
