Subject: [PATCHv5 04/13] videobuf2: add V4L2_FLAG_MEMORY_NON_CONSISTENT flag
Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2020 18:29:11 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200424092920.4801-5-sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200424092920.4801-1-sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>

From: Sergey Senozhatsky <senozhatsky@chromium.org>

By setting or clearing V4L2_FLAG_MEMORY_NON_CONSISTENT flag
user-space should be able to set or clear queue's NON_CONSISTENT
->dma_attrs. Queue's ->dma_attrs are passed to the underlying
allocator in __vb2_buf_mem_alloc(), so thus user-space is able
to request vb2 buffer's memory to be either consistent (coherent)
or non-consistent.

The patch set also adds a corresponding capability flag:
fill_buf_caps() reports V4L2_BUF_CAP_SUPPORTS_CACHE_HINTS when
queue supports user-space cache management hints. Note that
queue should be set up and initialized, since it's the driver
that sets ->allow_cache_hints.
