[PATCH v6 0/2] staging: ion: get one device per heap

[PATCH v6 0/2] staging: ion: get one device per heap

[Benjamin Gaignard]

version 6:
- add an ION bus so heap are show as devices in /sys/bus/ion/
  instead of platform bus.
- split the patch in two: one for include reordering and one
  for per heap device change
- rebased on top of next-2017110 tag

version 5:
- create a configuration flag to keep legacy Ion misc device

version 4:
- add a configuration flag to switch between legacy Ion misc device
  and one device per heap version.
  This change has been suggested after Laura talks at XDC 2017.

version 3:
- change ion_device_add_heap prototype to return a possible error.

version 2:
- simplify ioctl check like propose by Dan
- make sure that we don't register more than ION_DEV_MAX heaps.

Until now all ion heaps are addressing using the same device "/dev/ion".
This way of working doesn't allow to give access rights (for example with
SElinux rules) per heap.
This series propose to have one device "/dev/ionX" per heap.
Query heaps informations will be possible on each device node but
allocation request will only be possible if heap_mask_id match with device minor number.

Using legacy Ion misc device is still by setting ION_LEGACY_DEVICE_API
configuration flag.

Why???

That should not matter at all.

Mainly because the next patch in the series adds new includes and I have
decide to split clean-up and new feature patches

That's fine, but this really isn't needed for any type of "clean-up" at
all.  But oh well, if you all like it that way, I'm not going to
complain that much :)

[PATCH v6 2/2] staging: ion: create one device entry per heap

[Benjamin Gaignard]

Instead a getting only one common device "/dev/ion" for
all the heaps this patch allow to create one device
entry ("/dev/ionX") per heap.
Getting an entry per heap could allow to set security rules
per heap and global ones for all heaps.

Allocation requests will be only allowed if the mask_id
match with device minor.
Query request could be done on any of the devices.

With this patch, sysfs looks like:

Another Ack for the device model stuff would be good but I'll
assume deafening silence means nobody hates it.

It's 1 day after the merge window has closed, and my todo patch queue
looks like this:
	$ mdfrm -c ~/mail/todo/
	1523 messages in /home/gregkh/mail/todo/

Please give me a chance to catch up...

commit model ftw, we have 400+ patches for 4.16 already merged and tested
and all ready, right when -rc1 gets tagged. Makes the merge window the
most relaxed time of all, because all the other maintainers are drowning
and wont pester you.

Just saying, this is an entirely fixable problem :-P

Or even just pre-review things and flag them in a mailbox if you want to
wait for -rc1 before applying things.

You want to default to Y here, so when you do 'make oldconfig' nothing

You need more text here to describe the trade offs.  Why would I not

keeping it on keep me from doing?

Why return 0?  Because it is already allocated?

Oh look, a struct device on the stack.  Watch bad things happen :(

This is a dynamic device, make it dynamic, or else you had better know

You call device_register for something you are calling a bus???  Are you
_sure_ about this?

What exactly are you creating in sysfs here?  You are throwing around
"raw" devices, which is almost never what you ever want to do.
Especially for some random char driver.

How many different reference counted objects do you now have in this
structure?  And what exactly is the lifetime rules involved in them?

Hint, you never tried removing any of these from the system, otherwise
you would have seen the kernel warnings...

Step back here, what exactly do you want to do?  What do you expect
sysfs to look like?  What do you want /dev/ to look like?

Where is the documentation for the new sysfs files and the new ioctl
call you added?  What did you do to test this out?  Where are the AOSP
patches to use this?  Happen to have a VTS test for it?

This needs a lot more work, if for no other reason than the integration
into the driver model is totally wrong and will blow up into tiny
pieces...

Do we need to convert Android for this to be accepted?  The single
device is being kept around for it and the use case was from non-Android
users wasn't it?

New struct devices were created and registered.  Why would that happen
if there was not a need for sysfs files? :)

So we are just going to add kernel features with no userspace users of
it at all?  Why would we do that?  How was it even tested?

I think it's reasonable to ask for userspace, I'm querying why it needs
to specifically be Android.

Does anyone other than Android use this interface?

There's plenty of other userspaces that have the same requirements for
allocation for applications like video capture, I believe some of them
have actually moved to ION already and they're certainly where some of
the requirements here are coming from.

Then the Kconfig option should start to describe some of this :)

No it is because in legacy mode all mask are valids so to keep legacy behavoir
it will not test if the requested heap  match with the device.

I will add a comment about that.

It is the size of heap_id_mask field is struct ion_allocation_data.
I will use FIELD_SIZEOF(struct ion_allocation_data, heap_id_mask) instead.

The naming is bad here, I will rename it ion_parent because I use it to provide
a parent to ion heap device either they won't go in /sys/bus/ion

ion heap devices need a parent to be correctly put in /sys/bus/ion either they
will go directly in /sys/bus directory. You are right name it ion_bus
is confusing
I will rename it ion_parent.

No I have never try because ION doesn't allow to be removed.

I do not add ioctl just creating a device node per heap while keeping alive
the legacy mode on the misc device.
Until now all the users of ion have the same access rights on all the heaps
because they must use a common device misc to do the allocation.
Creating on device node per heap will allow to customize the access rights
per heap.

This is one of the item in the TODO list before been able to unstage ION
which is my real need.

I have look but I haven't found any VTS for ion...
I know that Laura had propose some patches in vgem to be able to it test
but I don't have news about this since a while.

I still don't know why I would not select such an option, other than it
would break my working Android system if I did so :)

Please try to explain it a bit better.  For example, I really don't know
why you want to do this at all.

Again, never use a static struct device, if you do, it is a _huge_ hint
the code is incorrect.

Again, what are you trying to show in sysfs?  What type of
representation?  What is the bus?  What device type?  Why in sysfs at
all?

That seems odd, there's no way to free up all resources and remove the
module?

This is not explaining your sysfs representation at all.  I have no idea
what you are wanting to do here.

You are confusing struct device with a character device node here I
think.  They are two totally different things, yet are related in some
ways.

Why does it matter where in the tree this code is?  Don't go adding new
things to it that are not needed.  Who needs this?  What userspace code
wants this type of multiple ion devices?

Requirements came in from several places to split /dev/ion -> /dev/ion0
and /dev/ion1 so that security policy (i.e. selinux) could be used to
protect access to certain heaps. I wanted the ABI to be settled before
trying to move out of staging, hence the line in the TODO list about
doing the split.

Ok, but we should have some way of testing it works, right?  :)
