drm/radeon: take the mode_config mutex when dealing with hpds (v2) crashes

Show all headers | View raw

Dear Alex,

on my old P4 based non-SMP router your patch (commit 
32d12fc20e3c726ca858d0e5055fb596fce2f8bc in linux stable) crashes on 
Linux 4.1.4 and above. I was only able to take a picture of the whole 
trace https://ferdi.naasa.net/url/jplatte/IMG_3116.JPG

Reverting the patch resolves the issue.

This is my old graphics hardware:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. 
[AMD/ATI] RV100 [Radeon 7000 / Radeon VE]

Just for the reference, here is the full patch:
commit 32d12fc20e3c726ca858d0e5055fb596fce2f8bc

     drm/radeon: take the mode_config mutex when dealing with hpds (v2)

     commit 39fa10f7e21574a70cecf1fed0f9b36535aa68a0 upstream.

     Since we are messing with state in the worker.

     v2: drop the changes in the mst worker

Is it possible that the mutex is not defined on non-SMP systems? Can you 
help to resolve this regression?

Best regards,
Joerg
