I think you should be able to use fence directly, and export android userspace fences anyway, you could easily wrap them. ~Maarten Untested uncompiled patch for that below, looking from the documentation I may have caused a memory leak by taking a reference on the sync_pt.. --- diff --git a/drivers/staging/android/sync.c b/drivers/staging/android/sync.c index ba0d69e..201b088 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/android/sync.c +++ b/drivers/staging/android/sync.c @@ -179,7 +179,7 @@ static void fence_check_cb_func(struct fence *f, struct fence_cb *cb) } /* TODO: implement a create which takes more that one sync_pt */ -struct sync_fence *sync_fence_create(const char *name, struct sync_pt *pt) +struct sync_fence *sync_fence_create_dma(const char *name, struct fence *pt) { struct sync_fence *fence; @@ -190,16 +190,21 @@ struct sync_fence *sync_fence_create(const char *name, struct sync_pt *pt) fence->num_fences = 1; atomic_set(&fence->status, 1); - fence_get(&pt->base); - fence->cbs[0].sync_pt = &pt->base; + fence->cbs[0].sync_pt = fence_get(pt); fence->cbs[0].fence = fence; - if (fence_add_callback(&pt->base, &fence->cbs[0].cb, fence_check_cb_func)) + if (fence_add_callback(pt, &fence->cbs[0].cb, fence_check_cb_func)) atomic_dec(&fence->status); sync_fence_debug_add(fence); return fence; } +EXPORT_SYMBOL(sync_fence_create_dma); + +struct sync_fence *sync_fence_create(const char *name, struct sync_pt *pt) +{ + return sync_fence_create_dma(name, &pt->base); +} EXPORT_SYMBOL(sync_fence_create); struct sync_fence *sync_fence_fdget(int fd) diff --git a/drivers/staging/android/sync.h b/drivers/staging/android/sync.h index bcdd119..6d1682a 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/android/sync.h +++ b/drivers/staging/android/sync.h @@ -242,8 +242,9 @@ void sync_pt_free(struct sync_pt *pt); * @pt: sync_pt to add to the fence * * Creates a fence containg @pt.
