[PATCH v8 08/13] [media] vb2: add explicit fence user API

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

 



From: Gustavo Padovan <gustavo.padovan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Turn the reserved2 field into fence_fd that we will use to send
an in-fence to the kernel or return an out-fence from the kernel to
userspace.

Two new flags were added, V4L2_BUF_FLAG_IN_FENCE, that should be used
when sending a fence to the kernel to be waited on, and
V4L2_BUF_FLAG_OUT_FENCE, to ask the kernel to give back an out-fence.

v6:	- big improvement on doc (Hans Verkuil)

v5:
	- keep using reserved2 field for cpia2
	- set fence_fd to 0 for now, for compat with userspace(Mauro)

v4:
	- make it a union with reserved2 and fence_fd (Hans Verkuil)

v3:
	- make the out_fence refer to the current buffer (Hans Verkuil)

v2: add documentation
