Commit Message

Christian König Oct. 24, 2024, 12:41 p.m. UTC
Reports indicates that some userspace applications try to merge more than
80k of fences into a single dma_fence_array leading to a warning from
kzalloc() that the requested size becomes to big.

While that is clearly an userspace bug we should probably handle that case
gracefully in the kernel.

So we can either reject requests to merge more than a reasonable amount of
fences (64k maybe?) or we can start to use kvzalloc() instead of kzalloc().
This patch here does the later.

Really, yikes.

This patch seems reasonable to me if the above use is in fact valid.

Fixes tag?

Not really IME. Unless Christian means some reports I don't have access
to, the cases where userspace applications tried to do that were really
just cases where the fence count exploded exponentially because
dma_fence_unwrap_merge failed to actually merge identical fences (see
patch 2). At no point have I actually seen apps trying to merge 80k+
unique fences.

Friedrich

Rejecting would potentially be safer, otherwise there is a path for 
userspace to trigger a warn in kvmalloc_node (see 0829b5bcdd3b 
("drm/i915: 2 GiB of relocations ought to be enough for anybody*")) and 
spam dmesg at will.

Question is what limit to set...

Actually that is a WARN_ON_*ONCE* there so maybe not so critical to 
invent a limit. Up for discussion I suppose.
