For android using mesa instance, egl draw will dequeue an android buffer,

return syncfile when egl draw CS, isn't it better?
You have a good point. I'd be OK with either approach, or even with
having both options in the kernel.
I don't have a strong opinion for the CS IOCTL either. If it saves us an
extra IOCTL when we directly return a syncfile fd then why not?
But we really shouldn't use syncfile for the VA IOCTL. That's nothing we
want to share with other processes and the returned fence or sequence
needs to be lightweight.
Ideally I would say it should be a sequence number, so that you can say
max(seq1, seq2) and always have the latest.
The next best approach I think would be to use syncobj, cause it is
simply rather easily to implement.
