    drm/i915: Do not unmap object unless no other VMAs reference it · 9490edb5
    Armin Reese 提交于
    When using an IOMMU, GEM objects are mapped by their DMA address as the
    physical address is unknown. This depends on the underlying IOMMU
    driver to map and unmap the physical pages properly as defined in
    intel_iommu.c.
    
    The current code will tell the IOMMU to unmap the GEM BO's pages on the
    destruction of the first VMA that "maps" that BO. This is clearly wrong
    as there may be other VMAs "mapping" that BO (using flink). The scanout
    is one such example.
    
    The patch fixes this issue by only unmapping the DMA maps when there are
    no more VMAs mapping that object. This is equivalent to when an object
    is considered unbound as can be seen by the code. On the first VMA that
    again because bound, we will remap.
    
    An alternate solution would be to move the dma mapping to object
    creation and destrubtion. I am not sure if this is considered an
    unfriendly thing to do.
    
    Some notes to backporters trying to backport full PPGTT:
    
    The bug can never be hit without enabling the IOMMU. The existing code
    will also do the right thing when the object is shared via dmabuf. The
    failure should be demonstrable with flink. In cases when not using
    intel_iommu_strict it is likely (likely, as defined by: off the top of
    my head) on current workloads to *not* hit this bug since we often
    teardown all VMAs for an object shared across multiple VMs.  We also
    finish access to that object before the first dma_unmapping.
    intel_iommu_strict with flinked buffers is likely to hit this issue.
