2021-01-18dma-buf: Add debug optionDaniel Vetter1-0/+8
We have too many people abusing the struct page they can get at but really shouldn't in importers. Aside from that the backing page might simply not exist (for dynamic p2p mappings) looking at it and using it e.g. for mmap can also wreak the page handling of the exporter completely. Importers really must go through the proper interface like dma_buf_mmap for everything. I'm semi-tempted to enforce this for dynamic importers since those really have no excuse at all to break the rules. Unfortuantely we can't store the right pointers somewhere safe to make sure we oops on something recognizable, so best is to just wrangle them a bit by flipping all the bits. At least on x86 kernel addresses have all their high bits sets and the struct page array is fairly low in the kernel mapping, so flipping all the bits gives us a very high pointer in userspace and hence excellent chances for an invalid dereference. v2: Add a note to the @map_dma_buf hook that exporters shouldn't do fancy caching tricks, which would blow up with this address scrambling trick here (Chris) Enable by default when CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is enabled. v3: Only one copy of the mangle/unmangle code (Christian) v4: #ifdef, not #if (0day) v5: sg_table can also be an ERR_PTR (Chris, Christian) Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Reviewed-by: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Sumit Semwal <sumit.semwal@linaro.org> Cc: "Christian König" <christian.koenig@amd.com> Cc: David Stevens <stevensd@chromium.org> Cc: linux-media@vger.kernel.org Cc: linaro-mm-sig@lists.linaro.org Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20210115164739.3958206-1-daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch
2020-06-14treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'Masahiro Yamada1-2/+2
Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over '---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances. This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines, I also fixed the indentation. There are a variety of indentation styles found. a) 4 spaces + '---help---' b) 7 spaces + '---help---' c) 8 spaces + '---help---' d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---' e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation) f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---' g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---' In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the following commend: $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/' Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

2020-02-27dma-buf: add dynamic DMA-buf handling v15Christian König1-0/+10
On the exporter side we add optional explicit pinning callbacks. Which are called when the importer doesn't implement dynamic handling, move notification or need the DMA-buf locked in place for its use case. On the importer side we add an optional move_notify callback. This callback is used by the exporter to inform the importers that their mappings should be destroyed as soon as possible. This allows the exporter to provide the mappings without the need to pin the backing store. v2: don't try to invalidate mappings when the callback is NULL, lock the reservation obj while using the attachments, add helper to set the callback v3: move flag for invalidation support into the DMA-buf, use new attach_info structure to set the callback v4: use importer_priv field instead of mangling exporter priv. v5: drop invalidation_supported flag v6: squash together with pin/unpin changes v7: pin/unpin takes an attachment now v8: nuke dma_buf_attachment_(map|unmap)_locked, everything is now handled backward compatible v9: always cache when export/importer don't agree on dynamic handling v10: minimal style cleanup v11: drop automatically re-entry avoidance v12: rename callback to move_notify v13: add might_lock in appropriate places v14: rebase on separated locking change v15: add EXPERIMENTAL flag, some more code comments Signed-off-by: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/353993/?series=73646&rev=1

In light of recent review slip ups, the absence of a suite of tests for dma-buf became apparent. Given the current plethora of testing frameworks, opt for one already in use by Intel's CI and so allow easy hook up into igt. We introduce a new module that when loaded will execute the list of selftests and their subtest. The names of the selftests are put into the modinfo as parameters so that igt can identify each, and run them independently, principally for ease of error reporting.
