Dropping the rest of the patch, cause
that really doesn't make sense any more.

Could just be a misunderstanding, but the comments on your patch actually sounds a bit like somebody is trying to do exactly that.I think the usecase in mind here is poll(fd, timeout=0) Exactly as I feared. Even if userspace polls with timeout=0 you still need to call enable_signaling(). Otherwise you can run into a situation where userspace only uses timeout=0 and so never activates the signaling check in the driver. This would in turn result in an endless loop on implementations where the driver never signals fences on their own. Regards, Christian. |
