[PATCH 1/5] vt: Fix replacement console check when unbinding

[PATCH 1/5] vt: Fix replacement console check when unbinding

[Daniel Vetter]

I don't fully understand the magic of the vt register/unregister
logic, but apparently everything but the inital console (as set
in the conswitchp pointer) is marked with FLAG_MODULE. Which means
if something unregistered the boot vt driver (e.g. i915.ko kicking
out vga_con) there's nothing left when trying to unbind e.g. fbcon
through sysfs.

But we always have the dummy console hanging around, so this test
is fairly dubious. What we actually want is simply a different console
than the one we want to unbind.

[PATCH 2/5] vt: Fix up unregistration of vt drivers

[Daniel Vetter]

A bunch of issues:
- We should not kick out the default console (which is tracked in
  conswitchp), so check for that.
- Add better error codes so callers can differentiate between "something
  went wrong" and "your driver isn't registered already". i915 needs
  that so it doesn't fall over when reloading the driver and hence
  vga_con is already unregistered.
- There's a mess with the driver flags: What we need to check for is
  that the driver isn't used any more, i.e. unbound completely (FLAG_INIT).
  And not whether it's the boot console or not (which is the only one
  which doesn't have FLAG_MODULE). Otherwise there's no way to kick
  out the boot console, which i915 wants to do to prevent havoc with
  vga_con interferring (which tends to hang machines).

[PATCH 3/5] vt: Don't ignore unbind errors in vt_unbind

[Daniel Vetter]

Otherwise the loop will never stop since we don't make any
forward progress. Noticed while breaking this accidentally
in a painful attempt to make vga_con unregistering work.

With this patch we'll bail out on the first attempt, which
at least leaves a useful enough system behind for debugging.
Livelocks on console_lock just aren't fun.

[PATCH 4/5] drm/i915: Fixup global gtt cleanup

[Daniel Vetter]

The global gtt is setup up in 2 parts, so we need to be careful
with the cleanup. For consistency shovel it all into the ->cleanup
callback, like with ppgtt.

Noticed because it blew up in the out_gtt: cleanup code while
fiddling with the vgacon code.

[PATCH 5/5] drm/i915: Kick out vga console

[Daniel Vetter]

Touching the VGA resources on an IVB EFI machine causes hard hangs when
we then kick out the efifb. Ouch.

Apparently this also prevents unclaimed register errors on hsw and
hard machine hangs on my i855gm when trying to unbind fbcon.

Also, we want this to make I915_FBDEV=n safe.

v2: Rebase and pimp commit message.

v3: We also need to unregister the vga console, otherwise the unbind
of the fb console before module unload might resurrect it again.

v4: Ignore errors when the vga console is already unregistered - this
can happen when e.g. reloading i915.ko.

Apparently this also prevents unclaimed register errors on hsw and
hard machine hangs on my i855gm when trying to unbind fbcon.

Also, we want this to make I915_FBDEV=n safe.

v2: Rebase and pimp commit message.

v3: We also need to unregister the vga console, otherwise the unbind
of the fb console before module unload might resurrect it again.

v4: Ignore errors when the vga console is already unregistered - this
can happen when e.g. reloading i915.ko.

[PATCH 5/5] drm/i915: Kick out vga console

[Daniel Vetter]

Touching the VGA resources on an IVB EFI machine causes hard hangs when
we then kick out the efifb. Ouch.

Apparently this also prevents unclaimed register errors on hsw and
hard machine hangs on my i855gm when trying to unbind fbcon.

Also, we want this to make I915_FBDEV=n safe.

v2: Rebase and pimp commit message.

v3: We also need to unregister the vga console, otherwise the unbind

We used to return 0 on errors here, which is very backwards to me.. so
your change to use "retval" looks fine to me. This is:

For unknown reasons, you can disable the dummy console via Kconfig, so
it's not guaranteed to be around. But your comment is still valid.

Funny thing is, if you run do_bind_con_driver() on the range first,
you kick out the existing driver and can then unload it regardless
whether the fallback was FLAG_MODULE or not. Therefore, I think that
change is safe. This is:

Ugh, that fix is correct, but I'd rather like to see
do_unbind_con_driver() do the right thing. It currently resets
conswitchp _only_ if the new fallback is unbound. Why not _always_ set
conswitchp to defcsw _iff_ conswitchp == csw there?

This way, you _know_ here that if !con_is_bound(csw), then csw != conswitchp.

That makes FLAG_MODULE almost a no-op except for ->unbind(). I wonder
why FLAG_MODULE exists, anyway.

Otherwise looks good.

Ugh, that fix is correct, but I'd rather like to see
do_unbind_con_driver() do the right thing. It currently resets
conswitchp _only_ if the new fallback is unbound. Why not _always_ set
conswitchp to defcsw _iff_ conswitchp == csw there?

This way, you _know_ here that if !con_is_bound(csw), then csw != conswitchp.

That makes FLAG_MODULE almost a no-op except for ->unbind(). I wonder

Ha, that's what I've thought, too. But do_unbind doesn't actually change
conswitchp, it only restores it because apparently the
vga_con->con_startup function is a real con and changes it behind
everyones back for no good reason. Or at least that's what the comment
claims. Note how defconsw != defcsw ...

I've tried to follow around how conswitchp is actually used, but besides
that it's used to select the boot console I'm not sure at all what's going
hence.

> This way, you _know_ here that if !con_is_bound(csw), then csw != conswitchp.

Hence why I dropped this approach again (I've done it originally) and
opted for the straightforward but albeit crude direct check.

I've dug around in git history and it's less than useful. It was renamed
from FLAG_BIND (which makes somewhat sense, since it roughly tracks
whether a console is bound). But there's never been a justification for
it, neither in the original patch nor in the one that renamed it.

So I decided to not tempt fate and went with the small change here that
I've understood somewhat (I've tried other, more invasive changes and
failed).

I'm really reluctant to do the right thing here since the code overall has
very unclear semantics with conswitchp and FLAG_MODULE. Can I convince
yout that the more direct approach here is the right one?

I missed that line:
  const struct consw *defconsw = conswitchp;

Now that I looked at it again, this looks _really_ wrong. If
conswitchp is vgacon and startup fails, we keep it set to vgacon..
ugh, weird. But ok, that's up to the people who wrote that.

Btw., conswitchp is used for visual_init(), that is, every new VT
allocation gets assigned to conswitchp. Therefore, it must be a valid
driver. (VTs are allocated and deallocated by agetty/systemd after a
session is started/ended).

Ah, I missed where conswitchp was used in the maze, was getting a bit hazy

Rules for changing/updateing conswitchp are indeed a bit strange, which is
why I really don't want to touch this too much.

Thanks for the review.

Greg, are you ok with these 3 vt patches and with me merging them through
drm-intel trees? We need them to properly kick out vgacon, which tends to
result in machine hangs (mostly across module reload, but also on driver
load on really unlucky systems) and other havoc.

Cheers, Daniel

[PATCH] vt: Fix replacement console check when unbinding

[Daniel Vetter]

I don't fully understand the magic of the vt register/unregister
logic, but apparently everything but the inital console (as set
in the conswitchp pointer) is marked with FLAG_MODULE. Which means
if something unregistered the boot vt driver (e.g. i915.ko kicking
out vga_con) there's nothing left when trying to unbind e.g. fbcon
through sysfs.

But in most cases have the dummy console hanging around besides the
boot console, so this test is fairly dubious. What we actually want is
simply a different console than the one we want to unbind.

v2: Correct the commit message to clarify that the dummy console isn't
always around, but only in most cases (David).

Re: [PATCH 5/5] drm/i915: Kick out vga console

[Daniel Vetter]

Tomi/Jean can you please ack merging this through drm-intel trees? It
just exports the vga and dummy consoles so that i915 can do what it
needs to do.

Thanks, Daniel

Re: [PATCH 5/5] drm/i915: Kick out vga console

[Daniel Vetter]

Tomi/Jean can you please ack merging this through drm-intel trees? It
just exports the vga and dummy consoles so that i915 can do what it
needs to do.

Thanks, I'll send the pull for these patches to Dave as soon as I have the
ack from video/console maintainers, too. So should land for -rc1/2 or so.

Re: [PATCH 5/5] drm/i915: Kick out vga console

[Ed Tomlinson]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 24480 bytes --]

Hi

This commit ( a4de05268e674e8ed31df6348269e22d6c6a1803 ) hangs my boot with 3.16-git.  Reverting it lets the boot proceed. 

I have an i7 with a built-in i915 and an pcie r7 260x.  The R7 is the primary console.  The i915 is initialized
but does not have a physical display attached.

With the patch applied the boot stops at the messages:

[drm] Memory usable by graphics device = 2048M
[drm] Replacing VGA console driver

and I need to interrupt or power off the box to get it back.

(I did not notice messages about the R7 but they could have easily been missed - this box does not have a serial console)

Without the patch I get:

The issue looks like that we are ripping out the radeon fb_con whilst it
is active and that upsets everyone. In which case, I think the
compromise is:

do_take_over_console() should only touch console-drivers like fbcon.
How does this affect the underlying fbdev device? Ripping out active
or inactive fbcon should be just fine, shouldn't it?

Given that this hard-locks at kick_out_vgacon(), this looks more like
a dead-lock to me.

Hi Chris,

I had to rediff to get a patch that applies...  I am not hanging with this applied - it
does look like the i915 is starting is initialization later boot the new kernel.

Hm, we should only conditionalize the take_over_console - unregistering
vga_con is kinda the point to make sure it's gone for real. Ed, can you
please retest with the if (con_is_bound) check just for the
do_take_over_console call?

Still puzzled wtf is going on here since as David says this should be a
no-op.

Thanks, Daniel

Re: [Intel-gfx] [PATCH 5/5] drm/i915: Kick out vga console

[Ed Tomlinson]

not have an output device and the bios set set so the radeon is the primary device.

Hi Daniel,

The patch below also works.  You can use my Tested By for it.

Thanks
