Subject: Re: [RFC v2 1/2] dma-buf: Introduce dma buffer sharing mechanism
2011/12/2 Sumit Semwal <sumit.semwal@...com>:
> This is the first step in defining a dma buffer sharing mechanism.
>
> A new buffer object dma_buf is added, with operations and API to allow easy
> sharing of this buffer object across devices.
>
> The framework allows:
> - different devices to 'attach' themselves to this buffer, to facilitate
> backing storage negotiation, using dma_buf_attach() API.
> - association of a file pointer with each user-buffer and associated
> allocator-defined operations on that buffer. This operation is called the
> 'export' operation.
> - this exported buffer-object to be shared with the other entity by asking for
> its 'file-descriptor (fd)', and sharing the fd across.
> - a received fd to get the buffer object back, where it can be accessed using
> the associated exporter-defined operations.
> - the exporter and user to share the scatterlist using map_dma_buf and
> unmap_dma_buf operations.
>
> Atleast one 'attach()' call is required to be made prior to calling the
> map_dma_buf() operation.
>
> Couple of building blocks in map_dma_buf() are added to ease introduction
> of sync'ing across exporter and users, and late allocation by the exporter.
>
> *OPTIONALLY*: mmap() file operation is provided for the associated 'fd', as
> wrapper over the optional allocator defined mmap(), to be used by devices
> that might need one.
>
> More details are there in the documentation patch.
>
> This is based on design suggestions from many people at the mini-summits[1],
> most notably from Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de>, Rob Clark <rob@...com> and
> Daniel Vetter <daniel@...ll.ch>.
>
> The implementation is inspired from proof-of-concept patch-set from
> Tomasz Stanislawski <t.stanislaws@...sung.com>, who demonstrated buffer sharing
> between two v4l2 devices. [2]

I has test dmabuf based drm gem module for exynos and I found one problem.
you can refer to this test repository:
http://git.infradead.org/users/kmpark/linux-samsung/shortlog/refs/heads/exynos-drm-dmabuf
at this repository, I added some exception codes for resource release
in addition to Dave's patch sets.
let's suppose we use dmabuf based vb2 and drm gem with physically
continuous memory(no IOMMU) and we try to share allocated buffer
between them(v4l2 and drm driver).
1. request memory allocation through drm gem interface.
2. request DRM_SET_PRIME ioctl with the gem handle to get a fd to the
gem object.
- internally, private gem based dmabuf moudle calls drm_buf_export()
to register allocated gem object to fd.
3. request qbuf with the fd(got from 2) and DMABUF type to set the
buffer to v4l2 based device.
- internally, vb2 plug in module gets a buffer to the fd and then
calls dmabuf->ops->map_dmabuf() callback to get the sg table
containing physical memory info to the gem object. and then the
physical memory info would be copied to vb2_xx_buf object.
for DMABUF feature for v4l2 and videobuf2 framework, you can refer to
this repository:
git://github.com/robclark/kernel-omap4.git drmplane-dmabuf
after that, if v4l2 driver want to release vb2_xx_buf object with
allocated memory region by user request, how should we do?. refcount
to vb2_xx_buf is dependent on videobuf2 framework. so when vb2_xx_buf
object is released videobuf2 framework don't know who is using the
physical memory region. so this physical memory region is released and
when drm driver tries to access the region or to release it also, a
problem would be induced.
for this problem, I added get_shared_cnt() callback to dma-buf.h but
I'm not sure that this is good way. maybe there may be better way.
if there is any missing point, please let me know.
Thanks.
