I think that would be good to have. Another validation idea: dma-buf.c could track the pin_count on the struct dma_buf, and if an exporter tries to invalidate while pinned WARN and bail out. Because that's clearly a driver bug. All in the interest in making the contract between importers and exporters as clear as possible. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ amd-gfx mailing list amd-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/amd-gfx
