We have lots of these. And the cleanup code tends to be of dubious
quality. The biggest wrong pattern is that developers use devm_, which
ties the release action to the underlying struct device, whereas
all the userspace visible stuff attached to a drm_device can long
outlive that one (e.g. after a hotunplug while userspace has open
files and mmap'ed buffers). Give people what they want, but with more
correctness.
Mostly copied from devres.c, with types adjusted to fit drm_device and
a few simplifications - I didn't (yet) copy over everything. Since
the types don't match code sharing looked like a hopeless endeavour.
For now it's only super simplified, no groups, you can't remove
actions (but kfree exists, we'll need that soon). Plus all specific to
drm_device ofc, including the logging. Which I didn't bother to make
compile-time optional, since none of the other drm logging is compile
time optional either.
One tricky bit here is the chicken&egg between allocating your
drm_device structure and initiliazing it with drm_dev_init. For
perfect onion unwinding we'd need to have the action to kfree the
allocation registered before drm_dev_init registers any of its own
release handlers. But drm_dev_init doesn't know where exactly the
drm_device is emebedded into the overall structure, and by the time it
returns it'll all be too late. And forcing drivers to be able clean up
everything except the one kzalloc is silly.
Work around this by having a very special final_kfree pointer. This
also avoids troubles with the list head possibly disappearing from
underneath us when we release all resources attached to the
drm_device.
v2: Do all the kerneldoc at the end, to avoid lots of fairly pointless
shuffling while getting everything into shape.
v3: Add static to add/del_dr (Neil)
Move typo fix to the right patch (Neil)
v4: Enforce contract for drmm_add_final_kfree:
Use ksize() to check that the drm_device is indeed contained somewhere
in the final kfree(). Because we need that or the entire managed
release logic blows up in a pile of use-after-frees. Motivated by a
discussion with Laurent.
v5: Review from Laurent:
- %zu instead of casting size_t
- header guards
- sorting of includes
- guarding of data assignment if we didn't allocate it for a NULL
pointer
- delete spurious newline
- cast void* data parameter correctly in ->release call, no idea how
this even worked before
v6: Review from Sam
- Add the kerneldoc for the managed sub-struct back in, even if it
doesn't show up in the generated html somehow.
- Explain why __always_inline.
- Fix bisectability around the final kfree() in drm_dev_relase(). This
is just interim code which will disappear again.
- Some whitespace polish.
- Add debug output when drmm_add_action or drmm_kmalloc fail.
v7: My bisectability fix wasn't up to par as noticed by smatch.
v8: Remove unecessary {} around if else
v9: Use kstrdup_const, which requires kfree_const and introducing a free_dr()
helper (Thomas).
v10: kfree_const goes boom on the plain "kmalloc" assignment, somehow
we need to wrap that in kstrdup_const() too!! Also renumber revision
log, I somehow reset it midway thruh.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
