[PATCH v10 00/16] V4L2 Explicit Synchronization

From: Ezequiel Garcia
Date: Mon May 21 2018 - 12:06:50 EST


Hi all,

The most relevant change for this round is that all the work
done in the fence callback is now moved to a workqueue,
that runs with the queue lock held.

Although this introduces some latency, it is however needed
to take the vb2_queue mutex and safely call vb2 ops.

Given the fence callback can be called fully asynchronously,
and given it needs to be associated with a vb2_buffer,
we now need to refcount vb2_buffer. This allows to safely "attach"
the vb2_buffer to the fence callback.

To prevent annoying deadlocks, and because the fence callback
is called with the fence spinlock, it's best to avoid calling
dma_fence_put in the fence callback itself. So the fence is now
put in the DQBUF operation (or in cancel paths).

Hopefully, I took care of all the feedback provided by
Hans and Brian on v9. Please let me know if you guys catch
anything else.

Thanks!

Changes from v9:

* Move fence callback to workqueue, and call vb2_start_streaming if needed.
* Refcount vb2_buffer.
* Check return of get_unused_fd.
* Increase seqno for out-fences that reuse the context.
* Go back to is_unordered callback.
* Mark unordered formats in cobalt driver.
* Improve CAP_FENCES check.
* Minor documentation changes.
