This is the first step in defining a dma buffer sharing mechanism.
A new buffer object dma_buf is added, with operations and API to allow easy sharing of this buffer object across devices.
The framework allows:
- different devices to 'attach' themselves to this buffer, to facilitate
backing storage negotiation, using dma_buf_attach() API.
Any thoughts of adding facility to track them? So you can see who is using what?
- association of a file pointer with each user-buffer and associated
allocator-defined operations on that buffer. This operation is called the 'export' operation.
'create'? or 'alloc' ?
export implies an import somwhere and I don't think that is the case here.
Well, the import is the attach/map stuff. The userspace facing export ioctl would call dma_buf_export().. the userspace facing import ioctl of the importing device would call dma_buf_attach/map().
Perhaps the language should be a "create dma buf" API used by the exporting driver. I guess the dmabuf is being created, the backing memory/pages are being exported.
- this exported buffer-object to be shared with the other entity by asking for
its 'file-descriptor (fd)', and sharing the fd across.
- a received fd to get the buffer object back, where it can be accessed using
the associated exporter-defined operations.
- the exporter and user to share the scatterlist using map_dma_buf and
unmap_dma_buf operations.
Atleast one 'attach()' call is required to be made prior to calling the map_dma_buf() operation.
for the whole memory region or just for the device itself?
Attach should be called per buffer. It is basically registering intent of the importing device to user the buffer 1 or more times. Detach is letting the exporter know that the importer won't be using the buffer again (at least for a while).
For example: attach() map() // buffer is backed and pinned do dma to/from buffer unmap() // exporter could mark the buffer evictable here map() // buffer is pinned do dma to/from buffer unmap() ... detach()
Also, in case of multiple importers, the exporter could also wait to allocate backing pages until first map() in case one of the importers has stricter memory requirements (physically contiguous, certain memory range, etc) than the others. Some exporters, like v4l, might have some restrictions about the buffer being backed/pinned earlier, for those attach() might be basically a no-op. But the idea is to give exporters that are a bit more dynamic w/ memory management some flexibility.
BR, -R
Couple of building blocks in map_dma_buf() are added to ease introduction of sync'ing across exporter and users, and late allocation by the exporter.
More details are there in the documentation patch.
This is based on design suggestions from many people at the mini-summits[1], most notably from Arnd Bergmann arnd@arndb.de, Rob Clark rob@ti.com and Daniel Vetter daniel@ffwll.ch.
The implementation is inspired from proof-of-concept patch-set from Tomasz Stanislawski t.stanislaws@samsung.com, who demonstrated buffer sharing between two v4l2 devices. [2]
