Patch #5: NAK, that will break radeon.

On radeon we need the non-default wait or otherwise we can run into a
situation where we never signal a fence.

The general question is why do you need this?

Because i915 sets a non-default wait function so calling wait_any just bails with fences from i915 immediately bails with -EINVAL. This makes it work even with non-default waits.

Patch #6: Yes, please. Patch is Reviewed-by: Christian König
<christian.koenig@xxxxxxx>.

Patch #7: Already gave my rb on the patch Chris send out earlier.

Patch #8: NAK to the whole approach.

IIRC we discussed a very similar thing during the initial fence bringup
and also during the fence_array development.

The problem is that you can easily build ring dependencies and so
deadlocks with it.

I would really prefer an approach which is completely contained inside
the syncobj code base.

Are you use to the approach of internally making a proxy so long as all the proxy code is inside syncobj? Is also be happy to go back to the original approach with v3 of the last patch.

Regards,
Christian.

This series does the same thing as my earlier series in that it adds a sync
object wait interface complete with WAIT_FOR_SUBMIT flag.  While the uapi
remains unchanged, the guts look a bit different.  Instead of adding a
callback mechanism to drm_syncobj that fired whenever replace_fence was
called, it's now using proxy fences.  The drm_syncobj_fence_get still
returns NULL whenever the sync object is in an unsubmitted state but there
is a new drm_syncobj_fence_proxy_get which returns either the real fence or
a proxy fence that will be triggered the next time replace_fence is called
with a non-NULL replacement.  This does make both drm_syncobj_fence_get and
drm_syncobj_replace_fence a tiny bit more expensive, but it lets us do it
all without locking.

This series can be found as a branch here:

IGT tests for DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_WAIT and DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_RESET can be
found on patchwork here:
