+ * DOC: Branch device and port refcounting
+ *
+ * Topology refcount overview
+ * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ *
+ * The refcounting schemes for &struct drm_dp_mst_branch and &struct
+ * drm_dp_mst_port are somewhat unusual. Both ports and branch devices have
+ * two different kinds of refcounts: topology refcounts, and malloc refcounts.
+ *
+ * Topology refcounts are not exposed to drivers, and are handled internally
+ * by the DP MST helpers. The helpers use them in order to prevent the
+ * in-memory topology state from being changed in the middle of critical
+ * operations like changing the internal state of payload allocations. This
+ * means each branch and port will be considered to be connected to the rest
+ * of the topology until it's topology refcount reaches zero. Additionally,
+ * for ports this means that their associated &struct drm_connector will stay
+ * registered with userspace until the port's refcount reaches 0.
+ *
+ * Malloc refcount overview
+ * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ *
+ * Malloc references are used to keep a &struct drm_dp_mst_port or &struct
+ * drm_dp_mst_branch allocated even after all of its topology references have
+ * been dropped, so that the driver or MST helpers can safely access each
+ * branch's last known state before it was disconnected from the topology.
+ * When the malloc refcount of a port or branch reaches 0, the memory
+ * allocation containing the &struct drm_dp_mst_branch or &struct
+ * drm_dp_mst_port respectively will be freed.
+ *
+ * For &struct drm_dp_mst_branch, malloc refcounts are not currently exposed
+ * to drivers. As of writing this documentation, there are no drivers that
+ * have a usecase for accessing &struct drm_dp_mst_branch outside of the MST
+ * helpers. Exposing this API to drivers in a race-free manner would take more
+ * tweaking of the refcounting scheme, however patches are welcome provided
+ * there is a legitimate driver usecase for this.
+ *
+ * Refcount relationships in a topology
+ * ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ *
+ * Let's take a look at why the relationship between topology and malloc
+ * refcounts is designed the way it is.
+ *
+ * .. kernel-figure:: dp-mst/topology-figure-1.dot
+ *
+ * An example of topology and malloc refs in a DP MST topology with two
+ * active payloads. Topology refcount increments are indicated by solid
+ * lines, and malloc refcount increments are indicated by dashed lines.
+ * Each starts from the branch which incremented the refcount, and ends at
+ * the branch to which the refcount belongs to, i.e. the arrow points the
+ * same way as the C pointers used to reference a structure.
+ *
+ * As you can see in the above figure, every branch increments the topology
+ * refcount of it's children, and increments the malloc refcount of it's
+ * parent. Additionally, every payload increments the malloc refcount of it's
+ * assigned port by 1.
+ *
+ * So, what would happen if MSTB #3 from the above figure was unplugged from
+ * the system, but the driver hadn't yet removed payload #2 from port #3? The
+ * topology would start to look like the figure below.
+ *
+ * .. kernel-figure:: dp-mst/topology-figure-2.dot
+ *
+ * Ports and branch devices which have been released from memory are
+ * colored grey, and references which have been removed are colored red.
+ *
+ * Whenever a port or branch device's topology refcount reaches zero, it will
+ * decrement the topology refcounts of all its children, the malloc refcount
+ * of its parent, and finally its own malloc refcount. For MSTB #4 and port
+ * #4, this means they both have been disconnected from the topology and freed
+ * from memory. But, because payload #2 is still holding a reference to port
+ * #3, port #3 is removed from the topology but it's &struct drm_dp_mst_port
+ * is still accessible from memory. This also means port #3 has not yet
+ * decremented the malloc refcount of MSTB #3, so it's &struct
+ * drm_dp_mst_branch will also stay allocated in memory until port #3's
+ * malloc refcount reaches 0.
+ *
+ * This relationship is necessary because in order to release payload #2, we
+ * need to be able to figure out the last relative of port #3 that's still
+ * connected to the topology. In this case, we would travel up the topology as
+ * shown below.
+ *
+ * .. kernel-figure:: dp-mst/topology-figure-3.dot
+ *
+ * And finally, remove payload #2 by communicating with port #2 through
+ * sideband transactions.

The current way of handling refcounting in the DP MST helpers is really confusing and probably just plain wrong because it's been hacked up many times over the years without anyone actually going over the code and seeing if things could be simplified. To the best of my understanding, the current scheme works like this: drm_dp_mst_port and drm_dp_mst_branch both have a single refcount. When this refcount hits 0 for either of the two, they're removed from the topology state, but not immediately freed. Both ports and branch devices will reinitialize their kref once it's hit 0 before actually destroying themselves. The intended purpose behind this is so that we can avoid problems like not being able to free a remote payload that might still be active, due to us having removed all of the port/branch device structures in memory, as per: commit 91a25e463130 ("drm/dp/mst: deallocate payload on port destruction") Which may have worked, but then it caused use-after-free errors. Being new to MST at the time, I tried fixing it; commit 263efde31f97 ("drm/dp/mst: Get validated port ref in drm_dp_update_payload_part1()") But, that was broken: both drm_dp_mst_port and drm_dp_mst_branch structs are validated in almost every DP MST helper function. Simply put, this means we go through the topology and try to see if the given drm_dp_mst_branch or drm_dp_mst_port is still attached to something before trying to use it in order to avoid dereferencing freed memory (something that has happened a LOT in the past with this library). Because of this it doesn't actually matter whether or not we keep keep the ports and branches around in memory as that's not enough, because any function that validates the branches and ports passed to it will still reject them anyway since they're no longer in the topology structure. So, use-after-free errors were fixed but payload deallocation was completely broken. Two years later, AMD informed me about this issue and I attempted to come up with a temporary fix, pending a long-overdue cleanup of this library: commit c54c7374ff44 ("drm/dp_mst: Skip validating ports during destruction, just ref") But then that introduced use-after-free errors, so I quickly reverted it: commit 9765635b3075 ("Revert "drm/dp_mst: Skip validating ports during destruction, just ref"") And in the process, learned that there is just no simple fix for this: the design is just broken. Unfortunately, the usage of these helpers are quite broken as well. Some drivers like i915 have been smart enough to avoid accessing any kind of information from MST port structures, but others like nouveau have assumed, understandably so, that drm_dp_mst_port structures are normal and can just be accessed at any time without worrying about use-after-free errors. After a lot of discussion, me and Daniel Vetter came up with a better idea to replace all of this. To summarize, since this is documented far more indepth in the documentation this patch introduces, we make it so that drm_dp_mst_port and drm_dp_mst_branch structures have two different classes of refcounts: topology_kref, and malloc_kref. topology_kref corresponds to the lifetime of the given drm_dp_mst_port or drm_dp_mst_branch in it's given topology. Once it hits zero, any associated connectors are removed and the branch or port can no longer be validated. malloc_kref corresponds to the lifetime of the memory allocation for the actual structure, and will always be non-zero so long as the topology_kref is non-zero. This gives us a way to allow callers to hold onto port and branch device structures past their topology lifetime, and dramatically simplifies the lifetimes of both structures. This also finally fixes the port deallocation problem, properly. Additionally: since this now means that we can keep ports and branch devices allocated in memory for however long we need, we no longer need a significant amount of the port validation that we currently do. Additionally, there is one last scenario that this fixes, which couldn't have been fixed properly beforehand: - CPU1 unrefs port from topology (refcount 1->0) - CPU2 refs port in topology(refcount 0->1) Since we now can guarantee memory safety for ports and branches as-needed, we also can make our main reference counting functions fix this problem by using kref_get_unless_zero() internally so that topology refcounts can only ever reach 0 once.
