commit f6bfc9afc7510cb5e6fbe0a17c507917b0120280 upstream.

Acquire GEM handles in drm_framebuffer_init() and release them in
the corresponding drm_framebuffer_cleanup(). Ties the handle's
lifetime to the framebuffer. Not all GEM buffer objects have GEM
handles. If not set, no refcounting takes place. This is the case
for some fbdev emulation. This is not a problem as these GEM objects
do not use dma-bufs and drivers will not release them while fbdev
emulation is running. Framebuffer flags keep a bit per color plane
of which the framebuffer holds a GEM handle reference.

As all drivers use drm_framebuffer_init(), they will now all hold
dma-buf references as fixed in commit 5307dce878d4 ("drm/gem: Acquire
references on GEM handles for framebuffers").

In the GEM framebuffer helpers, restore the original ref counting
on buffer objects. As the helpers for handle refcounting are now
no longer called from outside the DRM core, unexport the symbols.

v3:
- don't mix internal flags with mode flags (Christian)
v2:
- track framebuffer handle refs by flag
- drop gma500 cleanup (Christian)

commit 5307dce878d4126e1b375587318955bd019c3741 upstream.

A GEM handle can be released while the GEM buffer object is attached
to a DRM framebuffer. This leads to the release of the dma-buf backing
the buffer object, if any. [1] Trying to use the framebuffer in further
mode-setting operations leads to a segmentation fault. Most easily
happens with driver that use shadow planes for vmap-ing the dma-buf
during a page flip. An example is shown below.

Acquiring GEM handles for the framebuffer's GEM buffer objects prevents
this from happening. The framebuffer's cleanup later puts the handle
references.

Commit 1a148af06000 ("drm/gem-shmem: Use dma_buf from GEM object
instance") triggers the segmentation fault easily by using the dma-buf
field more widely. The underlying issue with reference counting has
been present before.

v2:
- acquire the handle instead of the BO (Christian)
- fix comment style (Christian)
- drop the Fixes tag (Christian)
- rename err_ gotos
- add missing Link tag

<title>accel: Use XArray instead of IDR for minors</title>

<content type='text'>
Accel minor management is based on DRM (and is also using struct
drm_minor internally), since DRM is using XArray for minors, it makes
sense to also convert accel.
As the two implementations are identical (only difference being the
underlying xarray), move the accel_minor_* functionality to DRM.

<title>drm/gem: Acquire reservation lock in drm_gem_{pin/unpin}()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a78027847226493ea6f09a00875fa4871fd29e69</id>
<content type='text'>
Acquire the buffer object's reservation lock in drm_gem_pin() and
remove locking the drivers' GEM callbacks where necessary. Same for
unpin().

DRM drivers and memory managers modified by this patch will now have
correct dma-buf locking semantics: the caller is responsible for
holding the reservation lock when calling the pin or unpin callback.

DRM drivers and memory managers that are not modified will now be
protected against concurent invocation of their pin and unpin callbacks.

PRIME does not implement struct dma_buf_ops.pin, which requires
the caller to hold the reservation lock. It does implement struct
dma_buf_ops.attach, which requires to callee to acquire the
reservation lock. The PRIME code uses drm_gem_pin(), so locks
are now taken as specified. Same for unpin and detach.

The patch harmonizes GEM pin and unpin to have non-interruptible
reservation locking across all drivers, as is already the case for
vmap and vunmap. This affects gem-shmem, gem-vram, loongson, qxl and
radeon.

<content type='text'>
DRM drivers with user-space mode setting have been removed in Linux
v6.3. [1] Now remove the ioctl entry points for these drivers. Invoking
any of the ioctl ops will unconditionally return -EINVAL to user space.

Invoking DRM_IOCTL_MODESET_CTL is different from the other legacy
ioctl ops as it returns 0 even without CONFIG_DRM_LEGACY set. From the
original commit 29935554b384 ("drm: Disallow DRM_IOCTL_MODESET_CTL for
KMS drivers") it is not apparent how or why the operation differs from
the others. It is likely just an oversight in commit 61ae227032e7
("drm: allow removal of legacy codepaths (v4.1)"), which allowed
disabling leagacy ioctls in the first place. Still keep this removal
separate from the other ioctls to allow an easy revert, if necessary.
