Hi, Michael,

thanks for looking at this.

Until we support p2p dma or as a complement to that, migrate data
to system memory at dma-buf map time if possible.

Hmm, I believe in most cases that the caller should be holding the
lock (object dma-resv) on this object already.
Yes, I agree, In particular for other instances of our own driver,  at
least since the dma_resv introduction.

But I also think that's a pre-existing bug, since
i915_gem_object_pin_pages_unlocked() will also take the lock.
Ouch yes.  Missed that.

I Think we need to initially make the exporter dynamic-capable to
resolve this, and drop the locking here completely, as dma-buf docs says
that we're then guaranteed to get called with the object lock held.

I figure if we make the exporter dynamic, we need to migrate already at
dma_buf_pin time so we don't pin the object in the wrong location.
The exporter as dynamic  (ops->pin is available) is optional, but importer
dynamic (ops->move_notify) is required.

With that in mind, it would seem that there are three possible combinations
for the migrate to be attempted:

1) in the ops->pin function (export_dynamic != import_dynamic, during attach)
2) in the ops->pin function (export_dynamic and !CONFIG_DMABUF_MOVE_NOTIFY) during mapping
3) and possibly in ops->map_dma_buf (exort_dynamic iand CONFIG_DMABUF_MOVE_NOTIFY)

Since one possibility has to be in the mapping function, it seems that if we
can figure out the locking, that the migrate should probably be available here.

Mike

So perhaps just to initially fix the bug, we could just implement NOP pin() and unpin() callbacks and drop the locking in map_attach() and replace it with an assert_object_held();
