dma-buf: Add an API for exporting sync files (v14)
Modern userspace APIs like Vulkan are built on an explicit
synchronization model. This doesn't always play nicely with the
implicit synchronization used in the kernel and assumed by X11 and
Wayland. The client -> compositor half of the synchronization isn't too
bad, at least on intel, because we can control whether or not i915
synchronizes on the buffer and whether or not it's considered written.
The harder part is the compositor -> client synchronization when we get
the buffer back from the compositor. We're required to be able to
provide the client with a VkSemaphore and VkFence representing the point
in time where the window system (compositor and/or display) finished
using the buffer. With current APIs, it's very hard to do this in such
a way that we don't get confused by the Vulkan driver's access of the
buffer. In particular, once we tell the kernel that we're rendering to
the buffer again, any CPU waits on the buffer or GPU dependencies will
wait on some of the client rendering and not just the compositor.
This new IOCTL solves this problem by allowing us to get a snapshot of
the implicit synchronization state of a given dma-buf in the form of a
sync file. It's effectively the same as a poll() or I915_GEM_WAIT only,
instead of CPU waiting directly, it encapsulates the wait operation, at
the current moment in time, in a sync_file so we can check/wait on it
later. As long as the Vulkan driver does the sync_file export from the
dma-buf before we re-introduce it for rendering, it will only contain
fences from the compositor or display. This allows to accurately turn
it into a VkFence or VkSemaphore without any over-synchronization.
By making this an ioctl on the dma-buf itself, it allows this new
functionality to be used in an entirely driver-agnostic way without
having access to a DRM fd. This makes it ideal for use in driver-generic
code in Mesa or in a client such as a compositor where the DRM fd may be
hard to reach.
v2 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Use a wrapper dma_fence_array of all fences including the new one
when importing an exclusive fence.
v3 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Lock around setting shared fences as well as exclusive
- Mark SIGNAL_SYNC_FILE as a read-write ioctl.
- Initialize ret to 0 in dma_buf_wait_sync_file
v4 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Use the new dma_resv_get_singleton helper
v5 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Rename the IOCTLs to import/export rather than wait/signal
- Drop the WRITE flag and always get/set the exclusive fence
v6 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Drop the sync_file import as it was all-around sketchy and not nearly
as useful as import.
- Re-introduce READ/WRITE flag support for export
- Rework the commit message
v7 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Require at least one sync flag
- Fix a refcounting bug: dma_resv_get_excl() doesn't take a reference
- Use _rcu helpers since we're accessing the dma_resv read-only
v8 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Return -ENOMEM if the sync_file_create fails
- Predicate support on IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SYNC_FILE)
v9 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Add documentation for the new ioctl
v10 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Go back to dma_buf_sync_file as the ioctl struct name
v11 (Daniel Vetter):
- Go back to dma_buf_export_sync_file as the ioctl struct name
- Better kerneldoc describing what the read/write flags do
v12 (Christian König):
- Document why we chose to make it an ioctl on dma-buf
v13 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Rebase on Christian König's fence rework
v14 (Daniel Vetter & Christian König):
- Use dma_rev_usage_rw to get the properly inverted usage to pass to
dma_resv_get_singleton()
- Clean up the sync_file and fd if copy_to_user() fails
