[PATCH RFC 0/3] media: Ensure access to dma-buf-imported reference buffers

[Paul Kocialkowski]

This is a first attempt at implementing proper access to buffers
imported with dma-buf and used as reference frames for decoding
subsequent frames.

The main concern associated with this scenario was that memory could be
liberated while the buffer is not in a queued state. After careful
checking, it appears that this is not the case as the refcount is
always increased when importing the buffer. It is only decreased when
the same buffer is queued with a different dma-buf fd or when all
buffers are liberated. In the meantime (when decoding using the frame as
a reference happens), the buffer is thus guaranteed to stay alive.

However, buffers imported with dma-buf require calls to dma-buf-specific
map/unmap memops before they are accessed. This introduces the plumbing
for allowing that.

One major issue is that it cannot be done in atomic context, where
the job is marked as completed. To solve this, a new m2m operation
(job_done) is introduced which allows releasing access to the
reference buffers from the m2m worker thread.

Since this series touches the core of vb2 and m2m and may not be the
best way to implement this, it is marked as RFC.

This series is based on the series starting with:
  media: cedrus: Cleanup duplicate declarations from cedrus_dec header

Paul Kocialkowski (4):
  media: vb2: Add helpers to access unselected buffers
  media: v4l2-mem2mem: Add an optional job_done operation
  media: cedrus: Request access to reference buffers when decoding
  media: cedrus: Remove completed item from TODO list (dma-buf
    references)

[PATCH RFC 1/4] media: vb2: Add helpers to access unselected buffers

[Paul Kocialkowski]

Introduce helpers to request and release access to buffers that are
not currently selected as current output or capture buffers.

This is useful to ensure proper access to buffers imported via dma-buf
that are used as reference and thus require associated map/unmap calls
before access.

[PATCH RFC 2/4] media: v4l2-mem2mem: Add an optional job_done operation

[Paul Kocialkowski]

Introduce a new optional job_done operation, which allows calling back
to the driver when a job is done. Since the job might be completed
from interrupt context where some operations are not available, having
a callback from non-atomic context allows performing these operations
upon completion of a job. This is particularly useful for releasing
access to a reference buffer, which cannot be done in atomic context.

Use the already existing v4l2_m2m_device_run_work work queue for that
and clear the M2M device current context after calling job_done in the
worker thread, so that the private data can be passed to the operation.

Delaying the current context clearing should not be a problem since the
next call to v4l2_m2m_try_run happens right after that.

[PATCH RFC 3/4] media: cedrus: Request access to reference buffers when decoding

[Paul Kocialkowski]

Because we need to request and release access to reference buffers
that are backed by a dma-buf import, keep track of the buffers used
as reference and add the appropriate calls in the device_run and
job_done m2m callbacks. The latter is introduced for this purpose.

[PATCH RFC 3/4] media: cedrus: Request access to reference buffers when decoding

[Paul Kocialkowski]

Because we need to request and release access to reference buffers
that are backed by a dma-buf import, keep track of the buffers used
as reference and add the appropriate calls in the device_run and
job_done m2m callbacks. The latter is introduced for this purpose.

[PATCH RFC 4/4] media: cedrus: Remove completed item from TODO list (dma-buf references)

Access to reference frames that were imported from dma-buf was taken

I'm not exactly sure it makes a lot of sense to review this patch,
since the approach could change.

However, let me point out a few fundamental issues here.

Careful here. It's misleading to think an event will happen
"right after". I'd say it's either synchronously, or asynchronously.

It's quite the opposite I'd say, the clearing will happen
"who-knows-when the scheduler picks the thread to run" :-)

Before this patch the curr_ctx was cleared in v4l2_m2m_job_finish,
atomically with the ctx job flags clearing and before waking up
threads waiting in v4l2_m2m_cancel_job.

You are now changing this, by clearing curr_ctx in a worker.
It's perfectly possible that v4l2_m2m_try_schedule will run
before the worker, trying to run with the old context, which
apparently would be safely refused.

I don't think you can access this without taking the job spinlock.

Aside from this, it seems we might need this hook sooner or later.
