point it out.

I missed this before, but: is there a reason why the "linux" prefix has been
dropped here? Maybe it should be renamed to
zwp_linux_surface_synchronization_v1? What about zwp_buffer_release_v1?
> + <description summary="per-surface explicit synchronization support">
> + This object implements per-surface explicit synchronization.
> +
> + Synchronization refers to co-ordination of pipelined operations performed
> + on buffers. Most GPU clients will schedule an asynchronous operation to
> + render to the buffer, then immediately send the buffer to the compositor
> + to be attached to a surface.
> +
> + In implicit synchronization, ensuring that the rendering operation is
> + complete before the compositor displays the buffer is an implementation
> + detail handled by either the kernel or userspace graphics driver.
> +
> + By contrast, in explicit synchronization, dma_fence objects mark when the
> + asynchronous operations are complete. When submitting a buffer, the
> + client provides an acquire fence which will be waited on before the
> + compositor accesses the buffer. The Wayland server, through a
> + zwp_buffer_release_v1 object, will inform the client with an event which
> + may be accompanied by a release fence, when the compositor will no longer
> + access the buffer contents due to the specific commit that requested the
> + release event.
> +
> + Each surface can be associated with only one object of this interface at
> + any time.
> +
> + Explicit synchronization is guaranteed to be supported only for buffers
> + created with any version of the wp_linux_dmabuf buffer factory.
