Well it's not on the same context, but it is guaranteed to not complete before all shared fences.<br>
<br>
See for example how it is used in amdgpu_copy_buffer(). We first sync to all fences in the reservation object:<br>
<blockquote type="cite">                r = amdgpu_sync_resv(adev, &job->sync, resv,<br>
                                     AMDGPU_FENCE_OWNER_UNDEFINED,<br>
                                     false);<br>
                if (r) {<br>
                        DRM_ERROR("sync failed (%d).\n", r);<br>
                        goto error_free;<br>
                }<br>
</blockquote>
This way the resulting fence will never signal before anything else and so can safely be used as exclusive fence in the reservation object.<br>

<br>
your check isn't correct because you still haven't understood the semantics here.<br>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite">
<div>the assumption that all shared fences should be signaled before adding excl fence looks not 100% guaranteed in LKG, </div>

The semantic is NOT that all shared fences are signaled when the exclusive fence is added.<br>
<br>
Instead the requirement is that the exclusive fence signals after all shared fences signaled. In other words that is an asynchronous handling here.<br>
<br>
I honestly don't know how else to explain it.<br>

that is to remove the problem that allocating memory could fail.<br>
<br>
E.g. we only add the fence after sending the command to the hardware, so there is now way back and we need to add the fence or break memory management.<br>

So reservation_object_reserve_shared() makes sure there is a free fence slot *before* we start to prepare things for the hardware.<br>

<br>
No. Serialisation of resv updates are handled by the caller, the fences<br>
are ordered asynchronously so the wait is implicit in the construction.<br>
(I.e. before the excl fence can be signaled, all of the earlier shared<br>
fences must be signaled. You can even say before the operation that the<br>
excl fence signals completion of can begin, all the shared fences must<br>
have been signaled. But that is all implicit so that we can do it<br>
asynchronously.)<br>

<br>
How? You only free staged iff shared_count < shared_max.<br>
<br>
You've reminded me that we should cover all this with a bunch of<br>
selftests.<br>
