[PATCH v4 00/13] drm: Support short-term vmap via vmap_local

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



GEM VRAM helpers used to pin the BO in their implementation of vmap, so
that they could not be relocated. In recent discussions, [1][2] it became
clear that this is incorrect for in-kernel use cases, such as fbdev
emulation; which should rather depend on the reservation lock to prevent
relocation.

This patchset addresses the issue by introducing the new interfaces
vmap_local and vunmap_local throughout dma-buf and GEM. It further adds
support to DRM's CMA, SHMEM and VRAM helpers and finally converts fbdev
emulation to the new interface.

Patches 1 and 2 add the vmap_local infrastructure throughout dma-buf,
GEM and PRIME.

Patches 3 to 11 add implementations of vmap_local to DRM's various GEM
helper libraries. Due to the simple nature of these libraries, existing
vmap code can be reused easily. Several drivers are updated as well to
use the new interfaces.

Patch 12 converts generic fbdev emulation to use vmap_local. Only DRM
drivers that use GEM helpers currently use fbdev emulation, so patches
3 to 11 covered all necessary instances.

Finally patch 13 removes drm_gem_vram_vmap() functionality, which is now
unused.

I smoke-tested the patchset with ast (VRAM helpers), mgag200 (SHMEM) and
vc4 (CMA). I also tested with a version of radeon (raw TTM) that had been
converted to generic fbdev emulation.

v4:
	* move driver changes out of SHMEM and VRAM patches (Daniel)
	* call dma_buf_vmap_local() in SHMEM implementation (Daniel)
	* remove unused drm_gem_vram_vmap() functionality
	* update documentation (Daniel)
v3:
	* rewrite patchset around vmap_local
v2:
	* make importers acquire resv locks by themselves
	* document dma-buf vmap/vunmap ops
