Subject: [PATCH v3 05/10] drm/locking: print deadlock backtraces with stack_depot_snprint()
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2026 18:56:57 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261113185702.1332171-6-matt@readmodwrite.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261113185702.1332171-1-matt@readmodwrite.com>

From: Caleb Kan <ckan@cloudflare.com>

When a modeset lock acquisition returns -EDEADLK, DRM saves the call chain
and prints it if the caller later attempts another lock or drops its locks
without first calling drm_modeset_backoff(). This diagnostic currently
fetches the saved stack through stack_depot_fetch().

Later patches compress the frames of persistent stack depot records and
remove stack_depot_fetch(), which cannot return a pointer to them.
Use stack_depot_snprint() to format the stack. Keep the PAGE_SIZE
buffer and leave the warning text, existing indentation, and backtrace
unchanged.
