Hi everybody,
core idea in this patch set is that DMA-buf importers can now provide an optional invalidate callback. Using this callback and the reservation object exporters can now avoid pinning DMA-buf memory for a long time while sharing it between devices.
I've already send out an older version roughly a year ago, but didn't had time to further look into cleaning this up.
The last time a major problem was that we would had to fix up all drivers implementing DMA-buf at once.
Now I avoid this by allowing mappings to be cached in the DMA-buf attachment and so driver can optionally move over to the new interface one by one.
This is also a prerequisite to my patchset enabling sharing of device memory with DMA-buf.
Please review and/or comment,
Christian.

No, in the case there is only one fence, we just inherit its timestamp
along with its fence status. (A single fence is the degenerate case of
a fence array.)

If there is more than one fence, sync_file->fence is a fence_array and
its timestamp is what you want. If there is one fence, sync_file->fence
is a pointer to that fence, and naturally has the right timestamp.
In short, this should be handled by dma_fence_array_create() when given
a complete set of signaled fences, it too should inherit the signaled
status with the timestamp being taken from the last fence. It should
also be careful to inherit the error status.
