TODO:

- checkpatch.pl cleanups
|
|
- sparse fixes
|
|
- rename files to be not so "generic"
|
|
- add proper arch dependencies as needed
|
|
- audit userspace interfaces to make sure they are sane

ion/
|
|
- Remove ION_IOC_SYNC: Flushing for devices should be purely a kernel internal
|
|
interface on top of dma-buf. flush_for_device needs to be added to dma-buf
|
|
first.
|
|
- Remove ION_IOC_CUSTOM: Atm used for cache flushing for cpu access in some
|
|
vendor trees. Should be replaced with an ioctl on the dma-buf to expose the
|
|
begin/end_cpu_access hooks to userspace.
|
|
- Clarify the tricks ion plays with explicitly managing coherency behind the
|
|
dma api's back (this is absolutely needed for high-perf gpu drivers): Add an
|
|
explicit coherency management mode to flush_for_device to be used by drivers
|
|
which want to manage caches themselves and which indicates whether cpu caches
|
|
need flushing.
|
|
- With those removed there's probably no use for ION_IOC_IMPORT anymore either
|
|
since ion would just be the central allocator for shared buffers.
|
|
- Add dt-binding to expose cma regions as ion heaps, with the rule that any
|
|
such cma regions must already be used by some device for dma. I.e. ion only
|
|
exposes existing cma regions and doesn't reserve unecessarily memory when
|
|
booting a system which doesn't use ion.
|
|
|
|
sync framework:
|
|
- remove CONFIG_SW_SYNC_USER, it is used only for testing/debugging and
|
|
should not be upstreamed.
|
|
- port CONFIG_SW_SYNC_USER tests interfaces to use debugfs somehow
|
|
- port libsync tests to kselftest
|
|
- clean up and ABI check for security issues
|
|
- move it to drivers/base/dma-buf
