Calling vblank_disable_fn() will cause that function to no-op
if !dev->vblank_disable_allowed for some kms drivers, e.g.,
on nouveau-kms. This can cause the gpu vblank irq's to not get
disabled before freeing the dev->vblank array, so if a
vblank irq fires and calls into drm_handle_vblank() after
drm_vblank_cleanup() completes, it will cause use-after-free
access to dev->vblank array.

Call vblank_disable_and_save unconditionally, so vblank irqs
are guaranteed to be off, before we delete the data structures
on which they operate.

No idea what games nouveau is playign with that flag, but this patch
should be fine at least for drivers that don't do such things.

Imo cc: stable isn't justified for these patches which fix stuff that
normal users don't really see (driver load failure and module reload for
kms drivers never tends to happen for normal users).

So I've dropped that and pulled the 2 patches Ville reviewd into my
topic/vblank-rework branch for 3.18.

Thanks, Daniel

Ok, good with me, thanks. Ville, thanks for the review. I'll review and 
test your vblank series next week when i have access to suitable 
machines and enough time. I need to go through this in single-step mode, 
vblank on/off changes always make me nervous, given how dependent my 
main application is on this for its timing, so i want to move through it 
in slow motion.

Btw. wrt to nouveau "No idea what games nouveau is playign with that 
flag, but this patch should be fine at least for drivers that don't do 
such things." (Villes comment).

Nouveau currently doesn't support hw vblank counter queries at all. The 
dev->driver->get_vblank_count() is just hooked up to drm_vblank_count(), 
so it's a no-op. Therefore nouveau can't allow disabling of vblank irq 
during "normal" operation as it would lose all vblank counts during the 
off period. That's why it leaves dev->vblank_disable_allowed = false;

Pre NV-50 apparently doesn't have any hw vblank counter register, but 
NV50+ seems to have one. I'll probably give implementing this a try for 
3.18 if nobody else does.

I'm not sure about all the new embedded drivers, if they have hw vblank 
counters?

thanks,
-mario

Quick grep says a lot don't have it or at least not implemented - they
use drm_vblank_count. Thinking about this, should we use that as a
signal to also set dev->vblnka_disable_allowed = false in
drm_vblank_init?

btw I've pulled in your patches and the one's from Ville that I think
are sane into a topic branch, in case that helps:

dev->vblank_disable_allowed = false; is already the default set in drm_vblank_init().
I think it was the idea of that flag that drivers which support a somewhat correct vblank dis/enable (= have useable hw vblank counters) opt-in to the vblank disable after some idle time by setting it to true.

The strange thing is that unconditional dev->vblank_disable_allowed = 
true in drm_vblank_post_modeset()?
It's there since the first introduction of the flag.

The i915, gma500, armada and exynos drivers explicitely set the flag to 
true to opt-in to the auto vblank disable. radeon gets it implicitely 
set by calling the vblank_post_modeset function. Tegra also gets it via 
the post_modeset, and nouveau on old cards with nv04 display engine.

armada, exynos and tegra don't have proper hw vblank counter queries, 
but opt-in, so those will lose vblank counts whenever vblank irqs get 
turned off.

It's a bit all over the place.
