Subject: [PATCH 2/2] drm/i915/pmu: Use a delayed wakeref put in get_rc6()
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 11:42:56 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910184253.1231313-6-umesh.nerlige.ramappa@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260910184253.1231313-4-umesh.nerlige.ramappa@intel.com>
get_rc6() has the same runqueue lock deadlock as guc_engine_busyness():
it is reached from the PMU callbacks, which perf can invoke from the
scheduler with the runqueue lock held, and intel_gt_pm_put_async() there
can wake a workqueue worker via try_to_wake_up().
Use intel_gt_pm_put_delay() so the deferred put arms a timer instead.
The remaining async puts in atomic contexts (hrtimer, tasklet, irq_work,
G2H handlers) cannot run with the runqueue lock held and are left alone.
Fixes: 07779a76ee1f ("drm/i915: Mark up the calling context for intel_wakeref_put()")
