Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/2] drm/exynos: fix pending update handling
Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2016 15:28:02 +0300 [thread overview]

2016-09-23 Andrzej Hajda <a.hajda@samsung.com>:
> Exynos DRM devices update their registers at vblank time. Exynos-DRM uses
> custom mechanism to wait for vblank. This mechanism is error prone -
> variables are not updated atomically. As a result in certain circumstances
> user space can try to free buffers which are still in use by hardware,
> in such cases IOMMU can throw OOPS.
> The patch instead of fixing the mechanism replaces it with drm core helper.
