I assume all the patches will go via the DRM tree in the end since the rest of the DRM patches in this series depend on this dma-buf change. But I see that separation may ease reviewing of the dma-buf changes, so let's try it. > Am 27.05.22 um 01:50 schrieb Dmitry Osipenko: >> All dma-bufs have dma-reservation lock that allows drivers to perform >> exclusive operations over shared dma-bufs.

Indeed, this will be a better description, thank you! I'll update it. > I have tried this before and failed because catching all the locks in > the right code paths are very tricky.

BTW, have you ever posted yours version of the patch? Will be great if we could compare the changed code paths. >> This patch introduces new locking convention for dma-buf users.

Do we really want to move all the locks to the importers? Seems the majority of drivers should be happy with the dma-buf helpers handling the locking for them. >> 3.

Radeon and Nouveau use gem_prime_import_sg_table() and they take resv lock already, seems they should be okay (?) I assume all the basics should covered in this v6. At minimum Intel, Tegra, Panfrost, Lima and Rockchip drivers should be good. If I missed something, then please let me know and I'll correct it. >> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Osipenko <dmitry.osipenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> >> --- >> drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf.c | 270 +++++++++++------- >> drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ttm.c | 6 +- >> drivers/gpu/drm/drm_client.c | 4 +- >> drivers/gpu/drm/drm_gem.c | 33 +++ >> drivers/gpu/drm/drm_gem_framebuffer_helper.c | 6 +- >> drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_dmabuf.c | 10 +- >> drivers/gpu/drm/qxl/qxl_object.c | 17 +- >> drivers/gpu/drm/qxl/qxl_prime.c | 4 +- >> .../common/videobuf2/videobuf2-dma-contig.c | 11 +- >> .../media/common/videobuf2/videobuf2-dma-sg.c | 11 +- >> .../common/videobuf2/videobuf2-vmalloc.c | 11 +- >> include/drm/drm_gem.h | 3 + >> include/linux/dma-buf.h | 14 +- >> 13 files changed, 241 insertions(+), 159 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf.c b/drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf.c >> index 32f55640890c..64a9909ccfa2 100644 >> --- a/drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf.c >> +++ b/drivers/dma-buf/dma-buf.c >> @@ -552,7 +552,6 @@ struct dma_buf *dma_buf_export(const struct >> dma_buf_export_info *exp_info) >> file->f_mode |= FMODE_LSEEK; >> dmabuf->file = file; >> - mutex_init(&dmabuf->lock); > > Please make removing dmabuf->lock a separate change.
