Merge tag 'drm-misc-next-2021-07-16' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm-misc into drm-next
drm-misc-next for v5.15: UAPI Changes: Cross-subsystem Changes: - udmabuf: Add support for mapping hugepages - Add dma-buf stats to sysfs. - Assorted fixes to fbdev/omap2. - dma-buf: Document DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC - Improve dma-buf non-dynamic exporter expectations better. - Add module parameters for dma-buf size and list limit. - Add HDMI codec support to vc4, to replace vc4's own codec. - Document dma-buf implicit fencing rules. - dma_resv_test_signaled test_all handling. Core Changes: - Extract i915's eDP backlight code into DRM helpers. - Assorted docbook updates. - Rework drm_dp_aux documentation. - Add support for the DP aux bus. - Shrink dma-fence-chain slightly. - Add alloc/free helpers for dma-fence-chain. - Assorted fixes to TTM., drm/of, bridge - drm_gem_plane_helper_prepare/cleanup_fb is now the default for gem drivers. - Small fix for scheduler completion. - Remove use of drm_device.irq_enabled. - Print the driver name to dmesg when registering framebuffer. - Export drm/gem's shadow plane handling, and use it in vkms. - Assorted small fixes. Driver Changes: - Add eDP backlight to nouveau. - Assorted fixes and cleanups to nouveau, panfrost, vmwgfx, anx7625, amdgpu, gma500, radeon, mgag200, vgem, vc4, vkms, omapdrm. - Add support for Samsung DB7430, Samsung ATNA33XC20, EDT ETMV570G2DHU, EDT ETM0350G0DH6, Innolux EJ030NA panels. - Fix some simple pannels missing bus_format and connector types. - Add mks-guest-stats instrumentation support to vmwgfx. - Merge i915-ttm topic branch. - Make s6e63m0 panel use Mipi-DBI helpers. - Add detect() supoprt for AST. - Use interrupts for hotplug on vc4. - vmwgfx is now moved to drm-misc-next, as sroland is no longer a maintainer for now. - vmwgfx now uses copies of vmware's internal device headers. - Slowly convert ti-sn65dsi83 over to atomic. - Rework amdgpu dma-resv handling. - Fix virtio fencing for planes. - Ensure amdgpu can always evict to SYSTEM. - Many drivers fixed for implicit fencing rules. - Set default prepare/cleanup fb for tiny, vram and simple helpers too. - Rework panfrost gpu reset and related serialization. - Update VKMS todo list. - Make bochs a tiny gpu driver, and use vram helper. - Use linux irq interfaces instead of drm_irq in some drivers. - Add support for Raspberry Pi Pico to GUD.

+/**
+ * struct dma_buf_sync - Synchronize with CPU access.
+ *
+ * When a DMA buffer is accessed from the CPU via mmap, it is not always
+ * possible to guarantee coherency between the CPU-visible map and underlying
+ * memory. To manage coherency, DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC must be used to bracket
+ * any CPU access to give the kernel the chance to shuffle memory around if
+ * needed.
+ *
+ * Prior to accessing the map, the client must call DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC
+ * with DMA_BUF_SYNC_START and the appropriate read/write flags. Once the
+ * access is complete, the client should call DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC with
+ * DMA_BUF_SYNC_END and the same read/write flags.
+ *
+ * The synchronization provided via DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC only provides cache
+ * coherency. It does not prevent other processes or devices from
+ * accessing the memory at the same time. If synchronization with a GPU or
+ * other device driver is required, it is the client's responsibility to
+ * wait for buffer to be ready for reading or writing before calling this
+ * ioctl with DMA_BUF_SYNC_START. Likewise, the client must ensure that
+ * follow-up work is not submitted to GPU or other device driver until
+ * after this ioctl has been called with DMA_BUF_SYNC_END?
+ *
+ * If the driver or API with which the client is interacting uses implicit
+ * synchronization, waiting for prior work to complete can be done via
+ * poll() on the DMA buffer file descriptor. If the driver or API requires
+ * explicit synchronization, the client may have to wait on a sync_file or
+ * other synchronization primitive outside the scope of the DMA buffer API.
