<p>Agreed. But see below. I don't think all is well.</p>

The references are grabbed in the call path of
drm_gem_prime_export() and dropped again in
drm_gem_dmabuf_release().<br>
<br>
So they are perfectly balanced as far as I can see.<br>

<p>That is true for the GEM object references. But I believe there
is still a problem with the TTM BO references.</p>
<p>As far as I can tell amdgpu_bo_unref can free the TTM BO while
there are still references to the GEM object from DMA buf
exports. I think that's a fundamental problem with how we have
two reference counts for the same physical object (TTM BO and
the embedded GEM BO).</p>

<br>
Completely agree, I also mentioned that problem during my talk on
FOSDEM. But calling amdgpu_bo_unref() to often is a bug in itself.<br>
<br>
What we could probably do to detect this is adding a BUG_ON() in
TTMs release function and checking if the GEM reference count is
really dead.<br>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite" cite="mid:170627d3-b5f8-edf5-d809-dd197c4e2018@amd.com">I think
the correct solution is for amdgpu_bo_ref/unref to delegate its
reference counting to drm_gem_object_get/put instead of
ttm_bo_get/put. The amdgpu BO would hold one token reference to
the TTM BO, which it can drop when the GEM BO refcount drops to 0.
Finally, the amdgpu BO should only be freed once the TTM BO
refcount also becomes 0.<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
Just the other way around, but yes the long term plan should
probably be to merge the two.<br>
<br>
The difficult is currently we have a mismatch what locks could be
taken when we drop the references.<br>

<p>drm_gem_object_put_unlocked calls drm_gem_object_free when
the obj->refcount reaches 0. From there it calls
dev->driver->gem_free_object_unlocked, which is
amdgpu_gem_object_free in amdgpu.<br>

That reference gets dropped when the the dma-buf is freed.
Not incrementing <br>
the refcount can lead to use-after-free errors. <br>

Of hand that doesn't sounds correct to me. Why should the
exported bo be closed through amdgpu_gem_object_free()? <br>
