Subject: [RFC v2 3/9] drm/xe/bo: Prevent purging of shared buffer objects
Date: Mon, 1 Dec 2025 11:20:13 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251201055309.854074-4-arvind.yadav@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251201055309.854074-1-arvind.yadav@intel.com>
Introduce the `xe_bo_is_shared_locked()` inline helper to determine if a
buffer object is shared across multiple clients or drivers. A buffer is
considered shared if it is exported via dma-buf, imported, or has a
handle count greater than one.
This check is critical for safely implementing purgeable memory. Purging
a buffer that is shared would lead to data corruption for other clients
that still hold a reference to it.
The kernel cannot safely determine when all clients are done with a
shared buffer, so shared BOs must never be marked DONTNEED or purged.
The new helper is used in two key locations:
1. In `xe_vm_madvise_purgeable_bo()`, to prevent userspace from
successfully marking a shared buffer as `DONTNEED`. This is the
primary safeguard against incorrect usage.
2. In `xe_bo_move()`, as a final safety check before the kernel
initiates a purge during eviction. This ensures that even if a
shared buffer were somehow marked `DONTNEED`, it would not be
purged.
