The previous iteration is here: https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg118077.html The 2nd patch proposes an userspace API for fences, then on patch 3 we prepare to the addition of in-fences in patch 4, by introducing the infrastructure on vb2 to wait on an in-fence signal before queueing the buffer in the driver. Patch 5 fix uvc v4l2 event handling and patch 6 configure q->dev for vivid drivers to enable to subscribe and dequeue events on it. Patches 7-9 enables support to notify BUF_QUEUED events, the event send to userspace the out-fence fd and the index of the buffer that was queued. Patches 10-11 add support to mark queues as ordered. Finally patches 12 and 13 add more fence infrastructure to support out-fences, patch 13 exposes close_fd() and patch 14 adds support to out-fences. It only works for ordered queues for now, see open question at the end of the letter. Test tool can be found at: https://git.collabora.com/cgit/user/padovan/v4l2-test.git/ Main Changes ------------ * out-fences: change in behavior: the out-fence fd now comes out of the BUF_QUEUED event along with the buffer id. All other changes are recorded on the patches' commit messages. Open Questions -------------- * non-ordered devices, like m2m: I've been thinking a lot about those and one possibility is to have a way to tell userspace that the queue is not ordered and then associate the fence with the current buffer in QBUF instead of the next one to be queued. Of course, there won't be any ordering between the fences. But it may be enough for userspace to take advantage of Explicit Synchronization in such cases. Any thoughts? * OUTPUT devices and in-fence. If I understood OUTPUT devices correctly it is desirable to queue the buffers to the driver in the same order we received them from userspace. If that is correct, shouldn't we add some mechanism to prevent buffer whose fence signaled to jump ahead of others?
