[PATCH 2/2] drm/syncobj: Add a signal ioctl (v3)

Jason Ekstrand jason at jlekstrand.net
Mon Aug 28 21:10:28 UTC 2017


This IOCTL provides a mechanism for userspace to trigger a sync object
directly.  There are other ways that userspace can trigger a syncobj
such as submitting a dummy batch somewhere or hanging on to a triggered
sync_file and doing an import.  This just provides an easy way to
manually trigger the sync object without weird hacks.

The motivation for this IOCTL is Vulkan fences.  Vulkan lets you create
a fence already in the signaled state so that you can wait on it
immediatly without stalling.  We could also handle this with a new
create flag to ask the driver to create a syncobj that is already
signaled but the IOCTL seemed a bit cleaner and more generic.

v2:
 - Take an array of sync objects (Dave Airlie)
v3:
 - Throw -EINVAL if pad != 0
