[PATCH V1] accel/amdxdna: Fix user buffer VMA checking and page pinning locking

by Lizhi Hou

From: Max Zhen <max.zhen(a)amd.com> Holding mmap_read_lock across user buffer VMA checking and page pinning. This keeps VMA validation and user page pinning synchronized with mmap updates. Also adding the check for VM_MAYWRITE to make sure the mapping can't be updated to writable after pinning of the pages.

[PATCH v3 05/11] dma-buf: Use trace_call__##name() at guarded tracepoint call sites

[PATCH v2] drm/virtio: move cursor resv lock acquisition to prepare_fb

by Deepanshu Kartikey

virtio_gpu_cursor_plane_update() allocates a virtio_gpu_object_array, locks its dma_resv, and queues a fenced transfer to the host. The lock acquisition can fail in two ways: - dma_resv_lock_interruptible() returns -EINTR when a signal is delivered while waiting for the reservation lock. - dma_resv_reserve_fences() returns -ENOMEM if it fails to allocate a fence slot; in this case lock_resv unlocks before returning. The return value was ignored, so the cursor path could proceed with the resv lock not held. The queue path then walks the object array and calls dma_resv_add_fence(), which requires the lock; with lockdep enabled this trips dma_resv_assert_held(): WARNING: drivers/dma-buf/dma-resv.c:296 at dma_resv_add_fence+0x71e/0x840 Call Trace: virtio_gpu_array_add_fence virtio_gpu_queue_ctrl_sgs virtio_gpu_queue_fenced_ctrl_buffer virtio_gpu_cursor_plane_update drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes drm_atomic_helper_commit_tail commit_tail drm_atomic_helper_commit drm_atomic_commit drm_atomic_helper_update_plane __setplane_atomic drm_mode_cursor_universal drm_mode_cursor_common drm_mode_cursor_ioctl drm_ioctl __x64_sys_ioctl Beyond the WARN, mutating the dma_resv fence list without the lock races with concurrent readers/writers and can corrupt the list. The DRM atomic helpers do not allow .atomic_update to fail: by the time it runs, the commit has been signed off to userspace and there is no clean rollback path. Move the fallible work -- objs allocation, dma_resv locking, and fence slot reservation -- into virtio_gpu_plane_prepare_fb, which is the designated callback for resource acquisition and may return errors that the framework handles by rolling back the commit. Stash the prepared object array on virtio_gpu_plane_state so the update step can consume it. Make virtio_gpu_plane_cleanup_fb release the objs if the commit was rolled back before update ran (i.e., objs not consumed). The queue path already unlocks the resv after attaching the fence (vq.c:411) and frees the array via put_free_delayed after host completion (vq.c:271), so the update step only needs to clear vgplane_st->objs to transfer ownership. Simplify virtio_gpu_cursor_plane_update to a no-fail queue submission that hands the prepared, locked objs to the queue path. The bug was reported by syzbot, triggered via fault injection (fail_nth) on the DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CURSOR path, which forces the -ENOMEM branch in dma_resv_reserve_fences().

Mastering the Quirky Fun of Drive Mad

by cold.puma.etfk＠hidingmail.net

Ever stumbled upon a game that, despite its simple premise, completely hooks you with its pure, unadulterated fun? That’s exactly the experience many players find with Drive Mad. This charmingly addictive browser game offers a delightful blend of physics-based challenges and surprisingly deep vehicle customization, making it a perfect quick pick-up-and-play for a few minutes or an hour. If you’re looking to dive into some lighthearted, yet engaging, gaming, then look no further than learning how to play and truly experience Drive Mad. What is Drive Mad? The Basics of Bouncing and Building https://drivemadfree.com At its core, Drive Mad is a physics-based driving game where your primary goal is to navigate a vehicle through increasingly outlandish courses. The controls are delightfully straightforward: typically just accelerator, brake, and often a way to tilt your vehicle forward or backward. What makes it interesting, however, is the emphasis on building. Before each level, you’re presented with a basic chassis and a limited budget to add various components: wheels of different sizes and grips, engines with varying power, and even structural elements to help you survive a crash or two. The magic lies in experimenting with these parts to create the most effective (or hilariously ineffective) contraption to tackle the upcoming obstacles. You can find this gem at Drive Mad. From Novice to Mad Driver: Gameplay and Progression The journey in Drive Mad starts simply. Early levels introduce you to basic inclines, gaps, and flat surfaces, allowing you to get a feel for the physics and how different vehicle builds respond. As you progress, the challenges escalate dramatically. You’ll encounter massive ramps, precarious bridges, explosive barrels, and even sections that require careful balancing on a single wheel. Each successful completion of a level earns you more in-game currency, which you can then use to unlock new vehicle parts, expanding your creative possibilities. The satisfaction of finally overcoming a particularly tricky level with a custom-built monster truck or a zippy, lightweight dune buggy is truly rewarding. Tips for Taming the Tracks: Your Guide to Success While Drive Mad is easy to pick up, mastering it requires a bit of strategy. Here are a few friendly tips to help you on your way: • Experiment with Wheels: Don't underestimate the power of different wheel types. Larger wheels offer better clearance and absorb impacts, while smaller wheels can be nimble. Experiment with combinations! • Balance is Key: Especially in later levels, maintaining balance is crucial. Use your tilt controls wisely to prevent your vehicle from flipping over, especially on steep ascents or descents. • Budget Wisely: While it's tempting to splurge on the most powerful engine, sometimes a more balanced build with good wheels and a sturdy frame is more effective than a top-heavy speed demon. • Learn from Crashes: Every glorious explosion or comical flip is a learning opportunity. Pay attention to what caused the failure and adjust your vehicle or driving style accordingly. • Sometimes Less is More: Don’t feel obligated to use every component you can. A simpler, more focused design can sometimes be more robust and effective than an over-engineered behemoth. Conclusion: Embrace the Madness Drive Mad is more than just a simple browser game; it's a testament to the joy of creative problem-solving and the sheer fun of physics-based chaos. Whether you're a seasoned gamer looking for a refreshing break or someone new to the world of digital entertainment, its approachable nature and engaging gameplay make it a fantastic choice. So, next time you have a few minutes to spare, why not hop into the driver's seat, build your dream machine, and see just how far you can drive yourself mad?

[PATCH] drm/virtio: check virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv() return in cursor update

by Deepanshu Kartikey

virtio_gpu_cursor_plane_update() calls virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv() but ignores its return value. The function can fail in two ways: - dma_resv_lock_interruptible() returns -ERESTARTSYS when a signal is delivered while waiting for the reservation lock. - dma_resv_reserve_fences() returns -ENOMEM if it fails to allocate a fence slot; in this case lock_resv unlocks before returning. In both cases the resv lock is not held on return. The cursor path proceeds to queue a fenced transfer command. The queue path then walks the object array and calls dma_resv_add_fence() on the cursor BO's reservation. dma_resv_add_fence() requires the resv lock to be held; with lockdep enabled the missing lock trips dma_resv_assert_held(): WARNING: drivers/dma-buf/dma-resv.c:296 at dma_resv_add_fence+0x71e/0x840 Call Trace: virtio_gpu_array_add_fence+0xcd/0x140 virtio_gpu_queue_ctrl_sgs virtio_gpu_queue_fenced_ctrl_buffer+0x578/0xfb0 virtio_gpu_cursor_plane_update+0x411/0xbc0 drm_atomic_helper_commit_planes+0x497/0xf10 ... drm_mode_cursor_ioctl+0xd4/0x110 drm_ioctl+0x5e6/0xc60 __x64_sys_ioctl+0x18e/0x210 Beyond the WARN, mutating the dma_resv fence list without the lock races with concurrent readers/writers and can corrupt the list. Check the return value of virtio_gpu_array_lock_resv(). On failure, drop the references taken by virtio_gpu_array_add_obj() with virtio_gpu_array_put_free() (which does not unlock, matching the not-locked state) and return without queueing the command. A skipped cursor frame is harmless; the WARN and the underlying race are not. The bug was reported by syzbot, triggered via fault injection (fail_nth) on the DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CURSOR path, which forces the -ENOMEM branch in dma_resv_reserve_fences().
