[PATCH] drm/sched: fix potential page fault in drm_sched_job_init()

[PATCH] drm/sched: fix potential page fault in drm_sched_job_init()

[Danilo Krummrich]

Commit 56e449603f0a ("drm/sched: Convert the GPU scheduler to variable
number of run-queues") introduces drm_err() in drm_sched_job_init(), in
order to indicate that the given entity has no runq, however at this
time job->sched is not yet set, likely to be NULL initialized, and hence
shouldn't be used.

Replace the corresponding drm_err() call with pr_err() to avoid a
potential page fault.

While at it, extend the documentation of drm_sched_job_init() to
indicate that job->sched is not a valid pointer until
drm_sched_job_arm() has been called.

Hi,

Could you please use my gmail address, the one one I'm responding from--I don't want

Good catch!

Did you actually get this to page-fault and have a kernel log?

I'm asking because we see it correctly set in this kernel log coming from AMD,

[   11.886024] amdgpu 0000:0a:00.0: [drm] *ERROR* drm_sched_job_init: entity has no rq!

Is it feasible to do something like the following?

		dev_err(job->sched ? job->sched->dev : NULL, "%s: entity has no rq!\n", __func__);

Sorry, that was meant to be like this to make the print look just like the original,

		dev_err(job->sched ? job->sched->dev : NULL, "[drm] *ERROR* %s: entity has no rq!\n", __func__);

No, I just found it because I was about to make the same mistake.

I think that's because amdgpu just sets job->sched to *some* scheduler instance after
job allocation [1].

I don't think that's a good idea. Although I'd assume that every driver zero-initializes its job
structures, I can't see a rule enforcing that. Hence, job->sched can be a random value until
drm_sched_job_arm() is called.

However, I notice there are quite a view more fields of struct drm_sched_job that are never
initialized, hence there are either a couple more potential bugs or missing documentation that
drivers *must* ensure that a job is zero-initialized.

Not quite sure if we really want to rely on the latter for core infrastructure...

Okay. However, when using pr_err() we're losing "[drm] *ERROR* " prefix and we scan for that
in the logs to quickly find the cause of the error.

Perhaps we can define pr_fmt() and also include "*ERROR*" so that we can get the desired result
as the attached patch shows?

Subject: [PATCH] drm/sched: fix potential page fault in drm_sched_job_init()

Commit 56e449603f0a ("drm/sched: Convert the GPU scheduler to variable
number of run-queues") introduces drm_err() in drm_sched_job_init(), in
order to indicate that the given entity has no runq, however at this
time job->sched is not yet set, likely to be NULL initialized, and hence
shouldn't be used.

Replace the corresponding drm_err() call with pr_err() to avoid a
potential page fault.

While at it, extend the documentation of drm_sched_job_init() to
indicate that job->sched is not a valid pointer until
drm_sched_job_arm() has been called.

v2: Add pr_fmt to drm_printk.h. Add "*ERROR*" to this pr_err() message. (Luben)

Sure, I'd add the pr_fmt() in a separate patch though.

Any opinions on that? Otherwise I'd probably go ahead and send a fix for the other bugs too.

Send the patches.

Will those patches also add pr_fmt() for DRM?

I'm asking because you said you'll add pr_fmt() in a "separate" patch, and I thought it was
okay being self-contained in your patch as per the version I sent.
