Subject: [PATCH 2/2] accel/rocket: keep core slots stable across unbind and rebind
Date: Thu, 30 Jul 2026 10:03:54 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260730080355.177422-3-royalnet026@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260730080355.177422-1-royalnet026@gmail.com>
The shared rocket_device tracks bound cores with a single counter and
uses it for three different jobs at once: find_core_for_dev() searches
[0, num_cores), rocket_probe() inserts the new core at index num_cores,
and rocket_remove() only decrements the counter without clearing the
slot.
This bookkeeping falls apart as soon as cores are unbound in any order
other than strict reverse bind order:
- unbinding core 0 shrinks the search range, so the still-bound core
at the highest index can no longer be found: its runtime PM
callbacks start failing with -ENODEV and a later unbind of it is
silently ignored, skipping rocket_core_fini() entirely;
- a subsequent bind then reuses the index of that still-live core and
overwrites its slot while its IRQ handler (dev_id points into
cores[]) and its DRM scheduler are still active;
- rocket_open() unconditionally uses cores[0].dev, which after an
unbind of core 0 is a stale pointer to an unbound device.
Give the array a fixed capacity (max_cores, the DT core count already
used to size the allocation) and make .dev the slot-liveness marker:
probe takes the first free slot, remove clears .dev after
rocket_core_fini() and warns if the core cannot be found, lookups
iterate the full capacity, and rocket_open() and rocket_job_open() use
only live slots. num_cores keeps counting bound cores for the
last-core teardown check.

Unbinding a core that still has jobs in flight has further
pre-existing issues (scheduler and open-file lifetime) that are out of
scope for this bookkeeping fix.
Verified on RK3588 (Orange Pi 5 Plus): out-of-order unbind/rebind
sequences (including the previously corrupting unbind of core 0 with
cores 1 and 2 still bound, followed by rebind) now keep all three
cores findable and functional, with a MobileNetV1 inference run via
the Teflon TFLite delegate bit-identical to the stock driver
afterwards.
