[As requested by Daniel cross posting to intel-gfx as well]. This set is the first step towards allowing to use a DMA-buf without actually pinning the underlying resources. This in turn the the ground work for PCIe P2P operations as well as quite a bunch of other use cases.
The idea is that we build the support for unpinned operation around the already present reservation lock in the DMA-buf object. For this we now grab the reservation object lock while mapping and unmapping DMA-bufs. The down side is that all implementations as well as users of DMA-buf needs to be audited to make sure that we don't run into double locking or lock inversions. So please test and/or comment and report back how badly lockdep complains :) Thanks, Christian. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
