dma-fence: prime lockdep annotations
Two in one go: - it is allowed to call dma_fence_wait() while holding a dma_resv_lock(). This is fundamental to how eviction works with ttm, so required. - it is allowed to call dma_fence_wait() from memory reclaim contexts, specifically from shrinker callbacks (which i915 does), and from mmu notifier callbacks (which amdgpu does, and which i915 sometimes also does, and probably always should, but that's kinda a debate). Also for stuff like HMM we really need to be able to do this, or things get real dicey. Consequence is that any critical path necessary to get to a dma_fence_signal for a fence must never a) call dma_resv_lock nor b) allocate memory with GFP_KERNEL. Also by implication of dma_resv_lock(), no userspace faulting allowed. That's some supremely obnoxious limitations, which is why we need to sprinkle the right annotations to all relevant paths. The one big locking context we're leaving out here is mmu notifiers, added in commit 23b68395c7c78a764e8963fc15a7cfd318bf187f Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Mon Aug 26 22:14:21 2019 +0200 mm/mmu_notifiers: add a lockdep map for invalidate_range_start/end that one covers a lot of other callsites, and it's also allowed to wait on dma-fences from mmu notifiers. But there's no ready-made functions exposed to prime this, so I've left it out for now. v2: Also track against mmu notifier context. v3: kerneldoc to spec the cross-driver contract. Note that currently i915 throws in a hard-coded 10s timeout on foreign fences (not sure why that was done, but it's there), which is why that rule is worded with SHOULD instead of MUST. Also some of the mmu_notifier/shrinker rules might surprise SoC drivers, I haven't fully audited them all. Which is infeasible anyway, we'll need to run them with lockdep and dma-fence annotations and see what goes boom. v4: A spelling fix from Mika v5: #ifdef for CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER. Reported by 0day. Unfortunately this means lockdep enforcement is slightly inconsistent, it won't spot GFP_NOIO and GFP_NOFS allocations in the wrong spot if CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER is disabled in the kernel config. Oh well. v5: Note that only drivers/gpu has a reasonable (or at least historical) excuse to use dma_fence_wait() from shrinker and mmu notifier callbacks. Everyone else should either have a better memory manager model, or better hardware. This reflects discussions with Jason Gunthorpe.
