Here is another pass at 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 v5: * Actually not much that I'm submitting now. I've backed out the large order page allocation I added in v4 as using it with the pagelist structure in the helper buffers ended up leaking memory unless we split them, and then we didn't see any performance improvement. * I have spent a fair amount of time looking at allocation performance compared to ION, and I do have a patch stack that performs equal or better then ION (utilizing large order allocations, sgtables, and a page pool). However, Andrew convinced me that the extra complexity of these optimizations would distract reviewers from the core functionality, and we can submit those changes afterwards without any interface impact. WIP patches can be found here: https://git.linaro.org/people/john.stultz/android-dev.git/log/?h=dev/dma-buf-heap-WIP * Minor cleanups 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. So I'm not too worried here. Thoughts and feedback would be greatly appreciated! 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.
