| 31954660 | 9 | The Sync File Framework adds explicit syncronization via |
| f54d1867 | 10 | userspace. It enables send/receive 'struct dma_fence' objects to/from |
| 31954660 GP |
11 | userspace via Sync File fds for synchronization between drivers via |
| 12 | userspace components. It has been ported from Android. | |
| 13 | ||
| 14 | The first and main user for this is graphics in which a fence is | |
| 15 | associated with a buffer. When a job is submitted to the GPU a fence | |
| 16 | is attached to the buffer and is transferred via userspace, using Sync | |
| 17 | Files fds, to the DRM driver for example. More details at | |
| 18 | Documentation/sync_file.txt. | |

| 26 | A sync object driver that uses a 32bit counter to coordinate | |
| 27 | synchronization. Useful when there is no hardware primitive backing | |
| 28 | the synchronization. | |

| 30 | WARNING: improper use of this can result in deadlocking kernel | |
| 31 | drivers from userspace. Intended for test and debug only. | |
