[PATCH] rust: device_id: rename IdTable::as_ptr to as_raw_id_table()

by Alice Ryhl

The current name of `as_ptr` is very generic, and if you attempt to invoke `foo.as_ptr()` on a type for which this method is missing, then an error along these lines will be printed: error[E0599]: no method named `as_ptr` found for reference `&DmaBuf` in the current scope --> linux/rust/kernel/dma_buf/buf.rs:54:38 | 54 | ptr::eq(self.as_ptr(), other.as_ptr()) | ^^^^^^ method not found in `&DmaBuf` | = help: items from traits can only be used if the trait is implemented and in scope note: `device_id::IdTable` defines an item `as_ptr`, perhaps you need to implement it --> linux/rust/kernel/device_id.rs:165:1 | 165 | pub trait IdTable<T: RawDeviceId, U> { | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Suggesting the IdTable trait when an as_ptr() method is missing is not useful. Renaming it to `as_raw_id_table` makes the method name unique to this trait and avoids these bad suggestions.

[PATCH] dma_buf: change unsigned int and int types into size_t

by Shahyan Soltani

The num_fences, count, i, and j variables in dma_fence_dedup_array() and __dma_fence_unwrap_merge() have inconsistent integer types, mixing both unsigned int and int. Use type size_t consistently for these instead, and update the return type of dma_fence_dedup_array() accordingly.

dma_fence cleanup/rework

by Christian König

In a recent discussion with Philip and Danilo the question came up what was already tried and never finished to cleanup the dma_fence framework. So here are the different ideas I came with but never fully finished, with the patches itself modernized and rebased on top of drm-misc-next. The main goal of those changes is to make it easier to implement dma_fence backends and don't enforce unnecessary constrains on implementations. As first step the locking around the dma_fence_ops.signaled callback is made consistent by removing the dma_fence_is_signaled_locked() function. This was mostly used by backends itself, but if polling the HW is desired the backends can call their own functions for this directly without going through the dma-fence layer. XE actually seems to be the only driver which make use of that for a bit more handling. For all other cases testing the signaled flag should be enough. Then forcefully calling dma_fence_signaled() is removed from the dma-fence layer and moved into the backend implementations. This allows the backend implementations to cleanup after they have signaled the fence. Such cleanup can include removing now signaled fences from lists, dropping references, starting work etc.... Especially nouveau seems to have some really messy workaround because of that involving the DMA_FENCE_FLAG_USER_BITS and installing callbacks because the reference to the context couldn't be dropped directly after signaling. This can now be cleaned up as far as I can see. In the long term this should also allow reworking the error handling, e.g. removing dma_fence_set_error() and instead giving the error as mandatory parameter to dma_fence_signal(). Then the last piece is dropping calling enable_signaling callback with the dma_fence lock held. This makes it possible for backends to acquire locks which are semantically ordered outside of the dma_fence lock. This is necessary to allows using the dma_fence inline lock in more cases, previously backends used some common external lock for their dma_fences to for example make it possible remove fences from linked lists. Please comment and review, Christian.
