[PATCH] dma-buf: refcount the attachment for cache_sgt_mapping

From: Nicolin Chen
Date: Tue Jun 11 2019 - 21:26:52 EST


Commit f13e143e7444 ("dma-buf: start caching of sg_table objects v2")
added a support of caching the sgt pointer into an attach pointer to
let users reuse the sgt pointer without another mapping. However, it
might not totally work as most of dma-buf callers are doing attach()
and map_attachment() back-to-back, using drm_prime.c for example:
drm_gem_prime_import_dev() {
attach = dma_buf_attach() {
/* Allocating a new attach */
attach = kzalloc();
/* .... */
return attach;
}
dma_buf_map_attachment(attach, direction) {
/* attach->sgt would be always empty as attach is new */
if (attach->sgt) {
/* Reuse attach->sgt */
}
/* Otherwise, map it */
attach->sgt = map();
}
}

So, for a cache_sgt_mapping use case, it would need to get the same
attachment pointer in order to reuse its sgt pointer. So this patch
adds a refcount to the attach() function and lets it search for the
existing attach pointer by matching the dev pointer.
