[EARLY RFC][PATCH 2/4] ion: Initial hack to create per heap devices

John Stultz john.stultz at linaro.org
Fri Feb 15 20:24:10 UTC 2019


One of the issues w/ the /dev/ion interface is that we have to
provide the complexity of a heap query interface and we end up
multiplexing all the heap access through that one interface via
a bit mask (which currently limits the heaps to 32).

There has been a long running todo to provide per-heap devices
which would make the heap discovery/query interface "ls", and
would allow for different heaps to have different permisisons
and sepolicy rules.

TODOs:
* Android doesn't use udev so "ion_heaps/%s" names don't
  automatically create a /dev/ subdir. I need to rework
  from miscdev to creating a proper device class and add
  a "subsystem" entry for the DeviceHandler to match with

* Each CMA region is exposed via a separate heap, not sure
  if this is desired or not, and we may need to improve the
  naming.
