[PATCH v2] Fix loading of module radeonfb on PowerMac

[PATCH v2] Fix loading of module radeonfb on PowerMac

[Mathieu Malaterre]

When the linux kernel is build with (typical kernel ship with Debian
installer):

CONFIG_FB_OF=y
CONFIG_VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING=y
CONFIG_FB_RADEON=m

The offb driver takes precedence over module radeonfb. It is then
impossible to load the module, error reported is:

[   96.551486] radeonfb 0000:00:10.0: enabling device (0006 -> 0007)
[   96.551526] radeonfb 0000:00:10.0: BAR 0: can't reserve [mem 0x98000000-0x9fffffff pref]
[   96.551531] radeonfb (0000:00:10.0): cannot request region 0.
[   96.551545] radeonfb: probe of 0000:00:10.0 failed with error -16

This patch reproduce the behavior of the module radeon, so as to make it
possible to load radeonfb when offb is first loaded.

It should be noticed that `offb_destroy` is never called which explain the
need to skip error detection on the radeon side.

If this is not a problem on PPC, the kernel shouldn't print an error either.

So I don't quite follow what's going on here. Why the CONFIG_PPC
conditionals? Is this problem only with OFFB and only with PPC?

And I think the code itself should have comments on this rather strange
behavior: the driver fails to get HW resources, but decides to ignore
the failure on PPC.

I don't think so.  I am no convinced the pci_request_region even serves
a purpose.  Certainly a number of the other drivers don't even bother
doing it.

The problem is that offb does do it, and radeon_fb tries to do it,
and since one is trying to take over from the other, it can't do that
because the area is already reserved.

It seems the simpler answer is to just not do it at all.

I don't think so.  I am no convinced the pci_request_region even serves
a purpose.  Certainly a number of the other drivers don't even bother
doing it.

The problem is that offb does do it, and radeon_fb tries to do it,
and since one is trying to take over from the other, it can't do that
because the area is already reserved.

It seems the simpler answer is to just not do it at all.

Now if some architectures require you to do it (no idea), then that
could be an issue.

Looking at all the other FB drivers, none of the ones that support
kicking out another driver to takeover call pci_request_region.
The ones that do call it all appear to be older drivers, likely not
updated much lately.

The radeonfb fails to load only (conflict with offb):
- when on PPC (PMAC actually)
- when compiled as module (CONFIG_FB_RADEON=y is OK)

Actually you are right, I missed configuration such as Pegasos[0]
machine (no openfirmware-framebuffer implemented in their firmware at
all). So I cannot simply assume that offb already allocated stuff on
all PPC out there.

Will resent a v3 with proper changelog ASAP.

[Mathieu Malaterre]

When the linux kernel is build with (typical kernel ship with Debian
installer):

CONFIG_FB_OF=y
CONFIG_VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING=y
CONFIG_FB_RADEON=m

The offb driver takes precedence over module radeonfb. It is then
impossible to load the module, error reported is:

[   96.551486] radeonfb 0000:00:10.0: enabling device (0006 -> 0007)

[   96.551545] radeonfb: probe of 0000:00:10.0 failed with error -16

This patch reproduce the behavior of the module radeon, so as to make it
possible to load radeonfb when offb is first loaded.

It should be noticed that `offb_destroy` is never called which explain the

v3: Only fails when CONFIG_FB_OF is not set, CONFIG_PCC was too broad. Since the conflicts in region is due to OFfb explicitly refers to it.

This still needs to be explained more, from my last mail:

"The last put_fb_info() on fb_info should call ->fb_destroy
(offb_destroy in our case) and remove_conflicting_framebuffers()
is calling put_fb_info() so there is some extra reference on
fb_info somewhere preventing it from going away.

Please look into fixing this."

It seems that there may still be configurations when this is
incorrect -> when offb drives primary (non-radeon) card and radeonfb
drives secondary (radeon) card..

My impression of that problem is that the offb driver is in use because
it is running the console, and until the radeonfb driver is loaded and
ready to take over, you can't stop using the offb driver, but you can't
currently load the radeonfb because offb is holding resources it wants.

Maybe I have misunderstood what the code is doing, but that seems to be
the problem.

On an x86 PC you could drop one fb and go to text mode then start another
fb driver.  PPC doesn't have that option since there is no text mode.

For reference my patch was inspired by commit:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/a56f7428d7534f162fbb089c5c79012bf38a7c29

While doing the search, I discover my patch is incorrect, I need to
integrate change from:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/44adece57e2604cec8527a499b48e4d584ab53b8#diff-767fb253c0135686111755f394d64199

So I'll submit a v4 anyway.

I am not familiar with the fb stuff internals but here is what I see:

# modprobe radeonfb

leads to:

[   52.058546] bus: 'pci': add driver radeonfb
[   52.058588] bus: 'pci': driver_probe_device: matched device

I can confirm that offb_destroy is never called (not sure exactly
why), but in any case the call to radeon_kick_out_firmware_fb happen
much earlier, at least before the put_fb_info.

Could you describe a bit more the chain of calls you were thinking of ?

It is okay, put_fb_info() is called indirectly by radeon_kick_out_firmware_fb()

radeon_kick_out_firmware_fb()
	remove_conflicting_framebuffers()
		do_remove_conflicting_framebuffers()
			do_unregister_framebuffer()
				put_fb_info()

offb_destroy() is not called because there is an extra reference on old
fb_info (->count = 2):

static void put_fb_info(struct fb_info *fb_info)
{
	if (!atomic_dec_and_test(&fb_info->count))
		return;
	if (fb_info->fbops->fb_destroy)
		fb_info->fbops->fb_destroy(fb_info);
}

The question is why there is an extra reference, probably user-space
is still holding the fb_info reference obtained in fb_open() call and
fb_release() is never called. Besides not calling fbops->fb_destroy()
this also causes missing call of fbops->fb_release() (in fb_release())
which some fb drivers are implementing (but not offb.c).

> Could you describe a bit more the chain of calls you were thinking of ?

Please add WARN_ON(1) to get_fb_info() and put_fb_info() so we can check
from the stacktrace if it is actually fb_open() that holds the extra
old fb_info reference.

drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c:

static struct fb_info *get_fb_info(unsigned int idx)
{
	struct fb_info *fb_info;

	if (idx >= FB_MAX)
		return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV);

	mutex_lock(&registration_lock);
	fb_info = registered_fb[idx];
	if (fb_info)
		atomic_inc(&fb_info->count);

if (fb_info)
	WARN_ON(1);

	mutex_unlock(&registration_lock);

	return fb_info;
}

static void put_fb_info(struct fb_info *fb_info)
{
WARN_ON(1);

	if (!atomic_dec_and_test(&fb_info->count))
		return;
	if (fb_info->fbops->fb_destroy)
		fb_info->fbops->fb_destroy(fb_info);
}

radeon_kick_out_firmware_fb()
	remove_conflicting_framebuffers()
		do_remove_conflicting_framebuffers()

Does that help at all? the call stack does not make much sense to me.
I am accessing the Mac Mini over ssh.

Thank you, it helps.

User-space is holding reference on the /dev/fb0 and old fb_info

why ->fb_destroy is never called). You may try checking with
lsof command to see what is holding /dev/fb0 open..

Thank you, it helps.

User-space is holding reference on the /dev/fb0 and old fb_info

why ->fb_destroy is never called). You may try checking with
lsof command to see what is holding /dev/fb0 open..

Thank you, it helps.

User-space is holding reference on the /dev/fb0 and old fb_info

why ->fb_destroy is never called). You may try checking with
lsof command to see what is holding /dev/fb0 open..

Right, I totally missed that X was running:

$ sudo lsof /dev/fb0
COMMAND PID USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
Xorg    469 root  mem    CHR   29,0          6500 /dev/fb0
Xorg    469 root   12u   CHR   29,0      0t0 6500 /dev/fb0

so I simply:

$ dmesg > before_xdm_stop
$ sudo service xdm stop
$ dmesg > after_xdm_stop
$ sudo lsof /dev/fb0
-> nothing

And I can verify in dmesg the call to put_fb_info:

$ diff -u before_xdm_stop after_xdm_stop

Now with your WARN_ON patch and xdm service stopped, here is what I get:

https://people.debian.org/~malat/full_xdm_stop_offb_without.log

You'll see that modprobe to radeonfb still fails.

If you now compare with the patch (v4) applied (+ WARN_ON and xdm
service stopped):

https://people.debian.org/~malat/full_xdm_stop_offb_with.log

You'll see a printk INFO for the call to offb_destroy:

...
[   48.025983]  MM calling offb_destroy
...

offb_destroy is called too late, which explains the failure for
loading radeonfb without the patch.

Right, I totally missed that X was running:

$ sudo lsof /dev/fb0
COMMAND PID USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
Xorg    469 root  mem    CHR   29,0          6500 /dev/fb0
Xorg    469 root   12u   CHR   29,0      0t0 6500 /dev/fb0

so I simply:

$ dmesg > before_xdm_stop
$ sudo service xdm stop
$ dmesg > after_xdm_stop
$ sudo lsof /dev/fb0
-> nothing

And I can verify in dmesg the call to put_fb_info:

$ diff -u before_xdm_stop after_xdm_stop

Now with your WARN_ON patch and xdm service stopped, here is what I get:

https://people.debian.org/~malat/full_xdm_stop_offb_without.log

You'll see that modprobe to radeonfb still fails.

If you now compare with the patch (v4) applied (+ WARN_ON and xdm
service stopped):

https://people.debian.org/~malat/full_xdm_stop_offb_with.log

You'll see a printk INFO for the call to offb_destroy:

...
[   48.025983]  MM calling offb_destroy
...

offb_destroy is called too late, which explains the failure for
loading radeonfb without the patch.

-M

offb_destroy() seems to be called in the right place but we still
need to kick out offb.  IOW your patch is needed but with xdm stop
sequence it should be possible to drop ifdef hacks.

PS switch to drm_fb_helper_remove_conflicting_framebuffers() in v4
should be reverted to just use remove_conflicting_framebuffers() as
the former one is for DRM subsystem only.

offb_destroy() seems to be called in the right place but we still
need to kick out offb.  IOW your patch is needed but with xdm stop
sequence it should be possible to drop ifdef hacks.

PS switch to drm_fb_helper_remove_conflicting_framebuffers() in v4
should be reverted to just use remove_conflicting_framebuffers() as
the former one is for DRM subsystem only.

Ah, great ! Thanks for the clarification. v5 sent.

Thanks much !

[PATCH v4] Fix loading of module radeonfb on PowerMac

[Mathieu Malaterre]

When the linux kernel is build with (typical kernel ship with Debian
installer):

CONFIG_FB_OF=y
CONFIG_VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING=y
CONFIG_FB_RADEON=m

The offb driver takes precedence over module radeonfb. It is then
impossible to load the module, error reported is:

[   96.551486] radeonfb 0000:00:10.0: enabling device (0006 -> 0007)
[   96.551526] radeonfb 0000:00:10.0: BAR 0: can't reserve [mem 0x98000000-0x9fffffff pref]
[   96.551531] radeonfb (0000:00:10.0): cannot request region 0.
[   96.551545] radeonfb: probe of 0000:00:10.0 failed with error -16

This patch reproduce the behavior of the module radeon, so as to make it
possible to load radeonfb when offb is first loaded, see commit a56f7428d753
("drm/radeon: Add early unregister of firmware fb's").

It should be noticed that `offb_destroy` is never called which explain the
need to skip error detection on the radeon side.

[PATCH v3] Fix loading of module radeonfb on PowerMac

[Mathieu Malaterre]

When the linux kernel is build with (typical kernel ship with Debian
installer):

CONFIG_FB_OF=y
CONFIG_VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING=y
CONFIG_FB_RADEON=m

The offb driver takes precedence over module radeonfb. It is then
impossible to load the module, error reported is:

[   96.551486] radeonfb 0000:00:10.0: enabling device (0006 -> 0007)
[   96.551526] radeonfb 0000:00:10.0: BAR 0: can't reserve [mem 0x98000000-0x9fffffff pref]
[   96.551531] radeonfb (0000:00:10.0): cannot request region 0.
[   96.551545] radeonfb: probe of 0000:00:10.0 failed with error -16

This patch reproduce the behavior of the module radeon, so as to make it
possible to load radeonfb when offb is first loaded.

The problem is that offb call pci_request_region first, and then radeonfb
tries to do it, and since one is trying to take over from the other, it can't
do that because the area is already reserved.

It should be noticed that `offb_destroy` is never called which explain the
need to skip error detection on the radeonfb side.

This doesn't look correct:

- PPC is not only PowerMac and offb supports more cards
  than radeon (while radeonfb can be used for secondary
  graphics card)

- offb can be disabled

  (i.e. in CONFIG_FB_OF=n && CONFIG_FB_RADEON=y case error
  checking will be missing now)

The last put_fb_info() on fb_info should call ->fb_destroy
(offb_destroy in our case) and remove_conflicting_framebuffers()
is calling put_fb_info() so there is some extra reference on
fb_info somewhere preventing it from going away.

Please look into fixing this.

This doesn't look correct:

- PPC is not only PowerMac and offb supports more cards
  than radeon (while radeonfb can be used for secondary
  graphics card)

- offb can be disabled

  (i.e. in CONFIG_FB_OF=n && CONFIG_FB_RADEON=y case error

The last put_fb_info() on fb_info should call ->fb_destroy
(offb_destroy in our case) and remove_conflicting_framebuffers()
is calling put_fb_info() so there is some extra reference on
fb_info somewhere preventing it from going away.

Please look into fixing this.
