This adds a new "DMA Buffer ioctls" section to the dma-buf docs and adds
documentation for DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC.
v2 (Daniel Vetter):
- Fix a couple typos
- Add commentary about synchronization with other devices
- Use item list format for describing flags
v3 (Pekka Paalanen):
- Clarify stalling requirements.
- Be more clear that that DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC with SINC_END has to be
called before more GPU work happens.

Overview
========
The patch adds DMA-BUF statistics to /sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers. It
allows statistics to be enabled for each DMA-BUF in sysfs by enabling
the config CONFIG_DMABUF_SYSFS_STATS.
The following stats will be exposed by the interface:
/sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers/<inode_number>/exporter_name
/sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers/<inode_number>/size
/sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers/<inode_number>/attachments/<attach_uid>/device
/sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers/<inode_number>/attachments/<attach_uid>/map_counter
The inode_number is unique for each DMA-BUF and was added earlier [1]
in order to allow userspace to track DMA-BUF usage across different
processes.
Use Cases
=========
The interface provides a way to gather DMA-BUF per-buffer statistics
from production devices. These statistics will be used to derive DMA-BUF
per-exporter stats and per-device usage stats for Android Bug reports.
The corresponding userspace changes can be found at [2].
Telemetry tools will also capture this information(along with other
memory metrics) periodically as well as on important events like a
foreground app kill (which might have been triggered by Low Memory
Killer). It will also contribute to provide a snapshot of the system
memory usage on other events such as OOM kills and Application Not
Responding events.
Background
==========
Currently, there are two existing interfaces that provide information
about DMA-BUFs.
1) /sys/kernel/debug/dma_buf/bufinfo
debugfs is however unsuitable to be mounted in production systems and
cannot be considered as an alternative to the sysfs interface being
proposed.
2) proc/<pid>/fdinfo/<fd>
The proc/<pid>/fdinfo/<fd> files expose information about DMA-BUF fds.
However, the existing procfs interfaces can only provide information
about the buffers for which processes hold fds or have the buffers
mmapped into their address space. Since the procfs interfaces alone
cannot provide a full picture of all DMA-BUFs in the system, there is
the need for an alternate interface to provide this information on
production systems.
The patch contains the following major improvements over v1:
1) Each attachment is represented by its own directory to allow creating
a symlink to the importing device and to also provide room for future
expansion.
2) The number of distinct mappings of each attachment is exposed in a
separate file.
3) The per-buffer statistics are now in /sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers
inorder to make the interface expandable in future.
All of the improvements above are based on suggestions/feedback from
Daniel Vetter and Christian König.
A shell script that can be run on a classic Linux environment to read
out the DMA-BUF statistics can be found at [3](suggested by John
Stultz).

Recently there was a fairly long thread about recoreable hardware page
faults, how they can deadlock, and what to do about that.
While the discussion is still fresh I figured good time to try and
document the conclusions a bit. This documentation section explains
what's the potential problem, and the remedies we've discussed,
roughly ordered from best to worst.
v2: Linus -> Linux typoe (Dave)
v3:
- Make it clear drivers only need to implement one option (Christian)
- Make it clearer that implicit sync is out the window with exclusive
fences (Christian)
- Add the fairly theoretical option of segementing the memory (either
statically or through dynamic checks at runtime for which piece of
memory is managed how) and explain why it's not a great idea (Felix)

Comes up every few years, gets somewhat tedious to discuss, let's

What I'm not sure about is whether the text should be more explicit in
flat out mandating the amdkfd eviction fences for long running compute
workloads or workloads where userspace fencing is allowed.

Two in one go:
- it is allowed to call dma_fence_wait() while holding a
dma_resv_lock(). This is fundamental to how eviction works with ttm,
so required.
- it is allowed to call dma_fence_wait() from memory reclaim contexts,
specifically from shrinker callbacks (which i915 does), and from mmu
notifier callbacks (which amdgpu does, and which i915 sometimes also
does, and probably always should, but that's kinda a debate). Also
for stuff like HMM we really need to be able to do this, or things
get real dicey.
Consequence is that any critical path necessary to get to a
dma_fence_signal for a fence must never a) call dma_resv_lock nor b)
allocate memory with GFP_KERNEL. Also by implication of
dma_resv_lock(), no userspace faulting allowed. That's some supremely
obnoxious limitations, which is why we need to sprinkle the right
annotations to all relevant paths.
The one big locking context we're leaving out here is mmu notifiers,
added in
commit 23b68395c7c78a764e8963fc15a7cfd318bf187f
Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>

mm/mmu_notifiers: add a lockdep map for invalidate_range_start/end
that one covers a lot of other callsites, and it's also allowed to
wait on dma-fences from mmu notifiers. But there's no ready-made
functions exposed to prime this, so I've left it out for now.
v2: Also track against mmu notifier context.
v3: kerneldoc to spec the cross-driver contract. Note that currently
i915 throws in a hard-coded 10s timeout on foreign fences (not sure
why that was done, but it's there), which is why that rule is worded
with SHOULD instead of MUST.
Also some of the mmu_notifier/shrinker rules might surprise SoC
drivers, I haven't fully audited them all. Which is infeasible anyway,
we'll need to run them with lockdep and dma-fence annotations and see
what goes boom.
v4: A spelling fix from Mika
v5: #ifdef for CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER. Reported by 0day. Unfortunately
this means lockdep enforcement is slightly inconsistent, it won't spot
GFP_NOIO and GFP_NOFS allocations in the wrong spot if
CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER is disabled in the kernel config. Oh well.
v5: Note that only drivers/gpu has a reasonable (or at least
historical) excuse to use dma_fence_wait() from shrinker and mmu
notifier callbacks. Everyone else should either have a better memory
manager model, or better hardware. This reflects discussions with
Jason Gunthorpe.

Design is similar to the lockdep annotations for workers, but with
some twists:
- We use a read-lock for the execution/worker/completion side, so that
this explicit annotation can be more liberally sprinkled around.
With read locks lockdep isn't going to complain if the read-side
isn't nested the same way under all circumstances, so ABBA deadlocks
are ok. Which they are, since this is an annotation only.
- We're using non-recursive lockdep read lock mode, since in recursive
read lock mode lockdep does not catch read side hazards. And we
_very_ much want read side hazards to be caught. For full details of
this limitation see
commit e91498589746065e3ae95d9a00b068e525eec34f
Author: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Wed Aug 23 13:13:11 2017 +0200
locking/lockdep/selftests: Add mixed read-write ABBA tests
- To allow nesting of the read-side explicit annotations we explicitly
keep track of the nesting. lock_is_held() allows us to do that.
- The wait-side annotation is a write lock, and entirely done within
dma_fence_wait() for everyone by default.
- To be able to freely annotate helper functions I want to make it ok
to call dma_fence_begin/end_signalling from soft/hardirq context.
First attempt was using the hardirq locking context for the write
side in lockdep, but this forces all normal spinlocks nested within
dma_fence_begin/end_signalling to be spinlocks. That bollocks.
The approach now is to simple check in_atomic(), and for these cases
entirely rely on the might_sleep() check in dma_fence_wait(). That
will catch any wrong nesting against spinlocks from soft/hardirq
contexts.
The idea here is that every code path that's critical for eventually
signalling a dma_fence should be annotated with
dma_fence_begin/end_signalling. The annotation ideally starts right
after a dma_fence is published (added to a dma_resv, exposed as a
sync_file fd, attached to a drm_syncobj fd, or anything else that
makes the dma_fence visible to other kernel threads), up to and
including the dma_fence_wait(). Examples are irq handlers, the
scheduler rt threads, the tail of execbuf (after the corresponding
fences are visible), any workers that end up signalling dma_fences and
really anything else. Not annotated should be code paths that only
complete fences opportunistically as the gpu progresses, like e.g.
shrinker/eviction code.
The main class of deadlocks this is supposed to catch are:
Thread A:
mutex_lock(A);
mutex_unlock(A);
dma_fence_signal();
Thread B:
mutex_lock(A);
dma_fence_wait();
mutex_unlock(A);
Thread B is blocked on A signalling the fence, but A never gets around
to that because it cannot acquire the lock A.
Note that dma_fence_wait() is allowed to be nested within
dma_fence_begin/end_signalling sections. To allow this to happen the
read lock needs to be upgraded to a write lock, which means that any
other lock is acquired between the dma_fence_begin_signalling() call and
the call to dma_fence_wait(), and still held, this will result in an
immediate lockdep complaint. The only other option would be to not
annotate such calls, defeating the point. Therefore these annotations
cannot be sprinkled over the code entirely mindless to avoid false
positives.
Originally I hope that the cross-release lockdep extensions would
alleviate the need for explicit annotations:
https://lwn.net/Articles/709849/
But there's a few reasons why that's not an option:
- It's not happening in upstream, since it got reverted due to too
many false positives:
commit e966eaeeb623f09975ef362c2866fae6f86844f9
Author: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
Date: Tue Dec 12 12:31:16 2017 +0100
locking/lockdep: Remove the cross-release locking checks
This code (CONFIG_LOCKDEP_CROSSRELEASE=y and CONFIG_LOCKDEP_COMPLETIONS=y),
while it found a number of old bugs initially, was also causing too many
false positives that caused people to disable lockdep - which is arguably
a worse overall outcome.
- cross-release uses the complete() call to annotate the end of
critical sections, for dma_fence that would be dma_fence_signal().
But we do not want all dma_fence_signal() calls to be treated as
critical, since many are opportunistic cleanup of gpu requests. If
these get stuck there's still the main completion interrupt and
workers who can unblock everyone. Automatically annotating all
dma_fence_signal() calls would hence cause false positives.
- cross-release had some educated guesses for when a critical section
starts, like fresh syscall or fresh work callback. This would again
cause false positives without explicit annotations, since for
dma_fence the critical sections only starts when we publish a fence.
- Furthermore there can be cases where a thread never does a
dma_fence_signal, but is still critical for reaching completion of
fences. One example would be a scheduler kthread which picks up jobs
and pushes them into hardware, where the interrupt handler or
another completion thread calls dma_fence_signal(). But if the
scheduler thread hangs, then all the fences hang, hence we need to
manually annotate it. cross-release aimed to solve this by chaining
cross-release dependencies, but the dependency from scheduler thread
to the completion interrupt handler goes through hw where
cross-release code can't observe it.
In short, without manual annotations and careful review of the start
and end of critical sections, cross-relese dependency tracking doesn't
work. We need explicit annotations.
v2: handle soft/hardirq ctx better against write side and dont forget
EXPORT_SYMBOL, drivers can't use this otherwise.
v3: Kerneldoc.
v4: Some spelling fixes from Mika
v5: Amend commit message to explain in detail why cross-release isn't
the solution.

- Put the initial overview for dma-buf into dma-buf.rst.
- Put all the comments about detailed semantics into the right
kernel-doc comment for functions or ops structure member.
- To allow that detail, switch the reworked kerneldoc to inline style
for dma_buf_ops.
- Tie everything together into a much more streamlined overview
comment, relying on the hyperlinks for all the details.
- Also sprinkle some links into the kerneldoc for dma_buf and
dma_buf_attachment to tie it all together.

Just prep work to polish and consolidate all the dma-buf related
documenation.
Unfortunately I didn't discover a way to both integrate this new file
into the overall toc while keeping it at the current place. Work
around that by moving it into the overall driver-api/index.rst.
