[PATCH v4 00/14] dma-fence: Deadline awareness

From: Rob Clark
Date: Sat Feb 18 2023 - 16:15:53 EST


From: Rob Clark <robdclark@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

This series adds deadline awareness to fences, so realtime deadlines
such as vblank can be communicated to the fence signaller for power/
frequency management decisions.

This is partially inspired by a trick i915 does, but implemented
via dma-fence for a couple of reasons:

1) To continue to be able to use the atomic helpers
2) To support cases where display and gpu are different drivers

This iteration adds a dma-fence ioctl to set a deadline (both to
support igt-tests, and compositors which delay decisions about which
client buffer to display), and a sw_sync ioctl to read back the
deadline. IGT tests utilizing these can be found at:

v1: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/93035/
v2: Move filtering out of later deadlines to fence implementation
to avoid increasing the size of dma_fence
v3: Add support in fence-array and fence-chain; Add some uabi to
support igt tests and userspace compositors.
v4: Rebase, address various comments, and add syncobj deadline
support, and sync_file EPOLLPRI based on experience with perf/
freq issues with clvk compute workloads on i915 (anv)
