Subject: Re: [PATCH] drm/sched: fix potential page fault in
 drm_sched_job_init()

Hi,

Could you please use my gmail address, the one one I'm responding from--I don't want
to miss any DRM scheduler patches. BTW, the luben.tuikov@....com email should bounce
as undeliverable.

Good catch!

Did you actually get this to page-fault and have a kernel log?

I'm asking because we see it correctly set in this kernel log coming from AMD,

[   11.886024] amdgpu 0000:0a:00.0: [drm] *ERROR* drm_sched_job_init: entity has no rq!

Is it feasible to do something like the following?

		dev_err(job->sched ? job->sched->dev : NULL, "%s: entity has no rq!\n", __func__);
