[PATCH] drm/scheduler: Fix bad job be re-processed in TDR

Hi Christian

Thanks for the correction before, I gave my explanation as below, would you help to check again, thanks in advance.

The key thing here is, if a job’s fence is signaled already, then call dma_fence_set_error to its fence will lead to a kernel warning call trace
static inline void dma_fence_set_error(struct dma_fence *fence,
                                                                       int error)
{
                WARN_ON(test_bit(DMA_FENCE_FLAG_SIGNALED_BIT, &fence->flags));   # here is warning source
                WARN_ON(error >= 0 || error < -MAX_ERRNO);
 
                fence->error = error;
}
 
 
Then, let’s see a guilty job’s process flow in TDR.                                                                                                                                                              
	amdgpu_device_gpu_recover -> drm_sched_job_recovery  -> for each job in ring_mirror_list :
               	 1)            dma_fence_set_error(&s_fence->finished, -ECANCELED) if this job is guilty
               	 2)            amdgpu_job_run: the guilty job will be skipped, and not submitted into to ring
	 	 3)            drm_sched_process_job(guilty_job) -> drm_sched_fence_finished -> dma_fence_signal(&fence->finished) -> drm_sched_job_finish_cb -> schedule_work(&job->finish_work);
			 Later, finish_work’s callback function,  drm_sched_job_finish, will be called by work queue, and guilty job will finally be deleted from ring_mirror_list.
 	But sometimes, amdgpu_device_gpu_recover will be called(from host FLR interrupt or KFD) again immediately, and at this moment, finish_work  is not scheduled by work queue, and drm_sched_job_finish for the guilty job is not called yet, so this guilty job is still in the 	ring_mirror_list. But remember, the guilty job’s fence was signaled before (by drm_sched_fence_finished), followed by the TDR process, dma_fence_set_error will be called again to this guilty, then cause the kernel warning call trace.
 
So the root cause is, the finish_work for each job  is not scheduled quickly enough for GPU TDR scenario.  
	Three ideas:
		1), Instead of using the system global work queue, maybe we can create a dedicate work queue to manage the job finish things, but still can’t guarantee its finish_work’s execution in GPU TDR scenario
		2), Wait for all the guilty jobs’ finish_work to be finished execution before return from drm_sched_job_recovery  , but I think it will waste too much time.
		3), to delete the guilty job from the ring_mirror_list directly after this job is processed in amdgpu_job_run(). 	amdgpu_job_run is the final entrance for a job to be submitted into the ring, if something wrong with this job:(finished->error < 0), then this job should be 			never be submitted again, and so should be deleted from the recovery list.
I choose 3).


I am going to make a new patch as below instead of the original one

Well that doesn't make any sense at all. If the list_head is already empty (pointing to itself) list_del is a no-op.

That strongly looks incorrect as well.

Can you describe more specific what you are trying to do here?

Thanks,
