Subject: [PATCH] io-mapping: Don't disable preempt on RT in io_mapping_map_atomic_wc().
Date: Fri, 10 Mar 2023 17:29:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230310162905.O57Pj7hh@linutronix.de> (raw)

io_mapping_map_atomic_wc() disables preemption and pagefaults for historical
reasons. The conversion to io_mapping_map_local_wc(), which only disables
migration, cannot be done wholesale because quite some call sites need to be
updated to accommodate with the changed semantics.

On PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels the io_mapping_map_atomic_wc() semantics are
problematic due to the implicit disabling of preemption which makes it
impossible to acquire 'sleeping' spinlocks within the mapped atomic sections.

PREEMPT_RT replaces the preempt_disable() with a migrate_disable() for
more than a decade. It could be argued that this is a justification to do
this unconditionally, but PREEMPT_RT covers only a limited number of
architectures and it disables some functionality which limits the coverage
further.

Limit the replacement to PREEMPT_RT for now. This is also done
kmap_atomic().

Richard reported it against the i915 driver. I got offlist another
report and this reporter confirmed that it fixes the issue while no
glitches or other problems were observed (in the kernel log and on
screen).
