I prefer to have a proper in-kernel client API from the get go, instead
of fixing it up later. The reason I skipped spending time on it in this
RFC, was that I didn't know if I was on the right track at the right time
to get the necessary attention to make this dumb_buffer idea happen.
With a drm_file centric approach, are you thinking something like this:
struct drm_device {
+ struct list_head filelist_internal;
};
+struct drm_file_funcs {
+ int (*restore)(struct drm_file *file);
+ void (*hotplug)(struct drm_file *file);
+ void (*unregister)(struct drm_file *file);
+};
struct drm_file {
+ struct drm_device *dev;
+ const struct drm_file_funcs *funcs;
};
struct drm_file *drm_file_alloc(struct drm_minor *minor)
{
+ file->dev = dev;
}
struct drm_file* drm_internal_open(struct drm_device *dev,
const struct drm_file_funcs *funcs)
struct drm_file *file;
int ret;
if (!try_module_get(dev->driver->fops->owner))
return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV);
drm_dev_ref(dev);
file = drm_file_alloc(dev);
if (IS_ERR(file)) {
drm_dev_unref(dev);
module_put(dev->driver->fops->owner);
return file;
}
file->funcs = funcs;
mutex_lock(&dev->filelist_mutex);
list_add(&file->lhead, &dev->filelist_internal);
mutex_unlock(&dev->filelist_mutex);
return file;
}
void drm_internal_release(struct drm_file *file)
{
struct drm_device *dev = file->dev;
mutex_lock(&dev->filelist_mutex);
list_del(&file->lhead);
mutex_unlock(&dev->filelist_mutex);
drm_file_free(file);
drm_dev_unref(dev);
module_put(dev->driver->fops->owner);
}
void drm_lastclose(struct drm_device *dev)
{
+ mutex_lock(&dev->filelist_mutex);
+ list_for_each_entry(file, &dev->filelist_internal, lhead) {
+ if (file->funcs && file->funcs->restore &&
+ !file->funcs->restore(file))
+ break;
+ mutex_unlock(&dev->filelist_mutex);
}
void drm_kms_helper_hotplug_event(struct drm_device *dev)
{
+ mutex_lock(&dev->filelist_mutex);
+ list_for_each_entry(file, &dev->filelist_internal, lhead) {
+ if (file->funcs && file->funcs->hotplug)
+ file->funcs->hotplug(file);
+ mutex_unlock(&dev->filelist_mutex);
}
How is locking done when .unregister will call into drm_internal_release()?
void drm_dev_unregister(struct drm_device *dev)
{
+ list_for_each_entry(file, &dev->filelist_internal, lhead) {
+ if (file->funcs && file->funcs->unregister)
+ file->funcs->unregister(file);
}
There is also the case where .unregister can't release the drm_file
because userspace has mmap'ed the buffer (fbdev). The client holds a ref
on drm_device so cleanup is stalled but that requires a driver that can
handle that (ref the tinydrm unplug series which is awaiting a timeslot).
amdgpu iterates dev->filelist in amdgpu_gem_force_release() and
amdgpu_sched_process_priority_override(). I don't know if it needs to
handle the internal ones as well.
What's the rational for having separate lists for internal and userspace?
There is one thing missing and that is notification of new drm_devices.
The client iterates the available drm_devices on module init, but it
needs a way to know about any later drm_device registrations.
