Abstract the complexity of iterating over all the fences in a dma_resv object.
The new loop handles the whole RCU and retry dance and returns only fences where we can be sure we grabbed the right one.
v2: fix accessing the shared fences while they might be freed, improve kerneldoc, rename _cursor to _iter, add dma_resv_iter_is_exclusive, add dma_resv_iter_begin/end

Hm I'd put all the init code into iter_begin ...
@Christian:
Could you engineer something in here which would, at least in debug builds, catch failures to call "iter begin" before using the iterator macro?
Yeah, I've already played with the thought of somehow teaching lockdep that. But then abandoned this as abusive of lockdep.

And then also call iter_begin from here. That way we guarantee that read_seqcount_begin is always called before _retry(). It's not a problem with the seqcount implementation (I think at least), but it definitely looks funny.
Calling iter_begin here also makes it clear that we're essentially restarting.

Please use the right dma_fence wrapper here for this and don't look at the bits/flags outside of dma_fence.[hc] code. I just realized that we don't have the right amount of barriers in there for the fastpath, i.e. if we have:
x = 0; /* static initializer */
thread a x = 1; dma_fence_signal(fence);
thread b; if (dma_fence_is_signalled(fence)) printk("%i\n", x);
Then you might actually be able to observe x == 0 in thread b. Which is not what we want at all.
@Daniel:
What do you mean here - in terms of if 'x' is "external" (not part of dma-fence), then are you suggesting dma-fence code should serialise it by using barriers?
That would sound incorrect to me, or in other words, I think it's fine if x == 0 is observed in your example thread B since that code is mixing external data with dma-fence.
No, Daniel is right. The problem is that on architectures other than x86 barriers are per memory address (or rather cache line in practice).
So you need to be really careful that you see the fully consistent state and not just one variable but others in the old state.
But this was buggy before as well. I'm just pulling the existing test into the new iterator.
Hm also, there is that annoying bit where by using dma_fence_is_signaled any code becomes a fence signaling critical path, which I never bought into. There should be a way to test the signaled status without actually doing the signaling. Or I am misunderstanding something so badly that is really really has to be like this?
You are mixing things up. Testing is unproblematic, signaling is the problematic one.
So no open-coding of dma_fence flag bits code outside of drm_fence.[hc] please. And yes i915-gem code is unfortunately a disaster.
Don't even miss an opportunity for some good trashing no? :D
But yes, deconstructed dma_fence_signal I thought we were supposed to add to core. Or at least propose, don't exactly remember how that went.
The problem is that you need to grab a reference to call dma_fence_signal while testing the flag works without one.
Regards, Christian.

The control flow here is very hairy, but I'm not sure how to best do this. With my suggestion to move the read_seqcount_begin into iter_begin maybe something like this:
iter_next() { do { dma_fence_put(cursor->fence) cursor->fence = NULL;
if (cursor->index == -1) { /* reset by iter_begin() cursor->fence = get_exclusive(); cusor->index++; } else { cursor->fence = shared_fences[++cursor->index] }
if (!dma_fence_is_signalled(cursor->fence)) continue; /* just grab the next fence. */
cursor->fence = dma_fence_get_rcu(cursor->fence);
if (!cursor->fence || read_seqcount_retry()) { /* we lost the race, restart completely */ iter_begin(); /* ->fence will be cleaned up at beginning of the loop */ continue; }
return cursor->fence; } while (true); }
Maybe I missed something, but that avoids the duplication of all the tricky code, i.e. checking for signalling, rcu protected conditional fence_get, and the retry is also nicely at the end.
