The userspace might need some sort of cache coherency management e.g. when CPU
and GPU domains are being accessed through dma-buf at the same time. To
circumvent this problem there are begin/end coherency markers, that forward
directly to existing dma-buf device drivers vfunc hooks. Userspace can make use
of those markers through the DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC ioctl. The sequence would be
used like following:
- mmap dma-buf fd
- for each drawing/upload cycle in CPU 1. SYNC_START ioctl, 2. read/write
to mmap area 3. SYNC_END ioctl. This can be repeated as often as you
want (with the new data being consumed by the GPU or say scanout device)
- munmap once you don't need the buffer any more
v2 (Tiago): Fix header file type names (u64 -> __u64)
v3 (Tiago): Add documentation. Use enum dma_buf_sync_flags to the begin/end
dma-buf functions. Check for overflows in start/length.
v4 (Tiago): use 2d regions for sync.
v5 (Tiago): forget about 2d regions (v4); use _IOW in DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC and
remove range information from struct dma_buf_sync.
v6 (Tiago): use __u64 structured padded flags instead enum. Adjust
documentation about the recommendation on using sync ioctls.
v7 (Tiago): Alex' nit on flags definition and being even more wording in the
doc about sync usage.
v9 (Tiago): remove useless is_dma_buf_file check. Fix sync.flags conditionals
and its mask order check. Add <linux/types.h> include in dma-buf.h.
