Hi All,
I realise it's been a while since this was last discussed, however I'd like to bring up kernel-side synchronization again. By kernel-side synchronization, I mean allowing multiple drivers/devices wanting to access the same buffer to do so without bouncing up to userspace to resolve dependencies such as "the display controller can't start scanning out a buffer until the GPU has finished rendering into it". As such, this is really just an optimization which reduces latency between E.g. The GPU finishing a rendering job and that buffer being scanned out. I appreciate this particular example is already solved on desktop graphics cards as the display controller and 3D core are both controlled by the same driver, so no "generic" mechanism is needed. However on ARM SoCs, the 3D core (like an ARM Mali) and display controller tend to be driven by separate drivers, so some mechanism is needed to allow both drivers to synchronize their access to buffers.
There are multiple ways synchronization can be achieved, fences/sync objects is one common approach, however we're presenting a different approach. Personally, I quite like fence sync objects, however we believe it requires a lot of userspace interfaces to be changed to pass around sync object handles. Our hope is that the kds approach will require less effort to make use of as no existing userspace interfaces need to be changed. E.g. To use explicit fences, the struct drm_mode_crtc_page_flip would need a new members to pass in the handle(s) of sync object(s) which the flip depends on (I.e. don't flip until these fences fire). The additional benefit of our approach is that it prevents userspace specifying dependency loops which can cause a deadlock (see kds.txt for an explanation of what I mean here).
I have waited until now to bring this up again because I am now able to share the code I was trying (and failing I think) to explain previously. The code has now been released under the GPLv2 from ARM Mali's developer portal, however I've attempted to turn that into a patch to allow it to be discussed on this list. Please find the patch inline below.
While KDS defines a very generic mechanism, I am proposing that this code or at least the concepts be merged with the existing dma_buf code, so a the struct kds_resource members get moved to struct dma_buf, kds_* functions get renamed to dma_buf_* functions, etc. So I guess what I'm saying is please don't review the actual code just yet, only the concepts the code describes, where kds_resource == dma_duf.
Cheers,
Tom

Add new system to allow synchronizing access to resources
See Documentation/kds.txt for details, however the general idea is that this kds framework synchronizes multiple drivers ("clients") wanting to access the same resources, where a resource is typically a 2D image buffer being shared around using dma-buf.
Note: This patch is created by extracting the sources from the tarball on <http://www.malideveloper.com/open-source-mali-gpus-lin ux-kernel-device-drivers---dev-releases.php> and putting them in roughly the right places.

Once all links are triggered +the registered callback is called or the blocking function returns. +A link is considered triggered if it is the first on the list of consumers of a resource, +or if all the links ahead of it is marked as shared and itself is of the type shared. + +When the client is done consuming the consumer object is removed from the linked lists of +the resources and a potential new consumer becomes the head of the resources. +As we add and remove consumers atomically across all resources we can guarantee that +we never introduces a A->B + B->A type of loops/deadlocks. + + +kbase/base implementation +------------------------- +A HW job needs access to a set of shared resources. +EGL tracks this and encodes the set along with the atom in the ringbuffer. +EGL allocates a (k)base dep object to represent the dependency to the set of resources and encodes that along with the list of resources. +This dep object is use to create a dependency from a job chain(atom) to the resources it needs to run. +When kbase decodes the atom in the ringbuffer it finds the set of resources and calls kds to request all the needed resources. +As EGL needs to know when the kds request is delivered a new base event object is needed: atom enqueued. This event is only delivered for atoms which uses kds. +The callback kbase registers trigger the dependency object described which would trigger the existing JD system to release the job chain. +When the atom is done kds resource set release is call to release the resources. + +EGL will typically use exclusive access to the render target, while all buffers used as input can be marked as shared. + + +Buffer publish/vsync +-------------------- +EGL will use a separate ioctl or DRM flip to request the flip. +If the LCD driver is integrated with kds EGL can do these operations early. +The LCD driver must then implement the ioctl or DRM flip to be asynchronous with kds async call. +The LCD driver binds a kds resource to each virtual buffer (2 buffers in case of double-buffering). +EGL will make a dependency to the target kds resource in the kbase atom. +After EGL receives a atom enqueued event it can ask the LCD driver to pan to the target kds resource. +When the atom is completed it'll release the resource and the LCD driver will get its callback. +In the callback it'll load the target buffer into the DMA unit of the LCD hardware. +The LCD driver will be the consumer of both buffers for a short period. +The LCD driver will call kds resource set release on the previous on-screen buffer when the next vsync/dma read end is handled. + + diff --git a/drivers/misc/kds.c b/drivers/misc/kds.c new file mode 100644 index 0000000..8d7d55e --- /dev/null +++ b/drivers/misc/kds.c @@ -0,0 +1,461 @@ +/* + * + * (C) COPYRIGHT 2012 ARM Limited.
