Subject: [PATCH 1/2] drm/i915/perf: Enable the stream before installing its fd
Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 16:15:13 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260908231511.1217426-5-umesh.nerlige.ramappa@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260908231511.1217426-4-umesh.nerlige.ramappa@intel.com>
Enable the stream before installing the fd. Once the fd is visible
to userspace, file operations can run concurrently with this thread
and they only take stream->lock, which is not held here. In
particular, an I915_PERF_IOCTL_DISABLE racing with the middle of
i915_perf_enable_locked() could clear stream->enabled and cancel a
poll timer that has not been started yet, leaving the stream with
enabled == false and the timer armed. Nothing would then cancel that
timer before the stream is freed on release.
Fixes: 2db609c01495 ("drm/i915/perf: Replace gt->perf.lock with stream->lock for file ops")
