Re: [PATCH 2/2] [RFC] reservation: add suppport for read-only access using rcu

Hi!

Ugh. This became more complicated than I thought, but I'm OK with moving
TTM over to fence while we sort out
how / if we're going to use this.

While reviewing, it struck me that this is kind of error-prone, and hard
to follow since we're operating on a structure that may be
continually updated under us, needing a lot of RCU-specific macros and
barriers.

Also the rcu wait appears to not complete until there are no busy fences
left (new ones can be added while we wait) rather than
waiting on a snapshot of busy fences.

I wonder if these issues can be addressed by having a function that
provides a snapshot of all busy fences: This can be accomplished
either by including the exclusive fence in the fence_list structure and
allocate a new such structure each time it is updated. The RCU reader
could then just make a copy of the current fence_list structure pointed
to by &obj->fence, but I'm not sure we want to reallocate *each* time we
update the fence pointer.

The other approach uses a seqlock to obtain a consistent snapshot, and
I've attached an incomplete outline, and I'm not 100% whether it's OK to
combine RCU and seqlocks in this way...

Both these approaches have the benefit of hiding the RCU snapshotting in
a single function, that can then be used by any waiting
or polling function.
