    drm: Make drm_read() more robust against multithreaded races · cdd1cf79
    Chris Wilson 提交于
    The current implementation of drm_read() faces a number of issues:
    
    1. Upon an error, it consumes the event which may lead to the client
    blocking.
    2. Upon an error, it forgets about events already copied
    3. If it fails to copy a single event with O_NONBLOCK it falls into a
    infinite loop of reporting EAGAIN.
    3. There is a race between multiple waiters and blocking reads of the
    events list.
    
    Here, we inline drm_dequeue_event() into drm_read() so that we can take
    the spinlock around the list walking and event copying, and importantly
    reorder the error handling to avoid the issues above.
