[PATCH 1/5] dma-buf: Extract dma-buf.rst

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

 



Just prep work to polish and consolidate all the dma-buf related
documenation.

Unfortunately I didn't discover a way to both integrate this new file
into the overall toc while keeping it at the current place. Work
around that by moving it into the overall driver-api/index.rst.

+Buffer Sharing and Synchronization
+==================================
+
+The dma-buf subsystem provides the framework for sharing buffers for
+hardware (DMA) access across multiple device drivers and subsystems, and
+for synchronizing asynchronous hardware access.
+
+This is used, for example, by drm "prime" multi-GPU support, but is of
+course not limited to GPU use cases.
+
+The three main components of this are: (1) dma-buf, representing a
+sg_table and exposed to userspace as a file descriptor to allow passing
+between devices, (2) fence, which provides a mechanism to signal when
+one device as finished access, and (3) reservation, which manages the
+shared or exclusive fence(s) associated with the buffer.
