[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915/gtt: Pull global wc page stash under its own locking

Chris Wilson chris at chris-wilson.co.uk
Wed Jul 4 11:39:45 UTC 2018


Currently, the wc-stash used for providing flushed WC pages ready for
constructing the page directories is assumed to be protected by the
struct_mutex. However, we want to remove this global lock and so must
install a replacement global lock for accessing the global wc-stash (the
per-vm stash continues to be guarded by the vm).

We need to push ahead on this patch due to an oversight in hastily
removing the struct_mutex guard around the igt_ppgtt_alloc selftest. No
matter, it will prove very useful (i.e. will be required) in the near
future.

Fixes: 1f6f00238abf ("drm/i915/selftests: Drop struct_mutex around lowlevel pggtt allocation")
