Here is another RFC of the dma-buf heaps patchset Andrew and I have been working on which tries to destage a fair chunk of ION functionality. The patchset implements per-heap devices which can be opened directly and then an ioctl is used to allocate a dmabuf from the heap. The interface is similar, but much simpler then IONs, only providing an ALLOC ioctl. Also, I've provided relatively simple system and cma heaps. I've booted and tested these patches with AOSP on the HiKey960 using the kernel tree here: https://git.linaro.org/people/john.stultz/android-dev.git/log/?h=dev/dma-buf-heap And the userspace changes here: https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/device/linaro/hikey/+/909436 Compared to ION, this patchset is missing the system-contig, carveout and chunk heaps, as I don't have a device that uses those, so I'm unable to do much useful validation there. Additionally we have no upstream users of chunk or carveout, and the system-contig has been deprecated in the common/andoid-* kernels, so this should be ok. I've also removed the stats accounting for now, since any such accounting should be implemented by dma-buf core or the heaps themselves. New in v4: * Add fd_flags per Benjamin's request to specify the creation flags for the dmabuf fd. * Added some optimization in the system heap to allocate contiguous pages where possible. * Reworked the kselftest code to use vgem rather then introducing a dummy importer * Other cleanups suggested by Benjamin and Andrew. Outstanding concerns: * Need to better understand various secure heap implementations. Some concern that heap private flags will be needed, but its also possible that dma-buf heaps can't solve everyone's needs, in which case, a vendor's secure buffer driver can implement their own dma-buf exporter. * Making sure the performance issues from potentially unnecessary cache-management operations can be resolved properly for system and cma heaps(outstanding issue from ION). That said, the main user-interface is shaping up and I wanted to get some input on the device model (particularly from GreKH) and any other API/ABI specific input. thanks -john Cc: Laura Abbott <labbott@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Benjamin Gaignard <benjamin.gaignard@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Sumit Semwal <sumit.semwal@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Liam Mark <lmark@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Pratik Patel <pratikp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Brian Starkey <Brian.Starkey@xxxxxxx> Cc: Vincent Donnefort <Vincent.Donnefort@xxxxxxx> Cc: Sudipto Paul <Sudipto.Paul@xxxxxxx> Cc: Andrew F.
