commit f6bfc9afc7510cb5e6fbe0a17c507917b0120280 upstream.

Acquire GEM handles in drm_framebuffer_init() and release them in
the corresponding drm_framebuffer_cleanup(). Ties the handle's
lifetime to the framebuffer. Not all GEM buffer objects have GEM
handles. If not set, no refcounting takes place. This is the case
for some fbdev emulation. This is not a problem as these GEM objects
do not use dma-bufs and drivers will not release them while fbdev
emulation is running. Framebuffer flags keep a bit per color plane
of which the framebuffer holds a GEM handle reference.

As all drivers use drm_framebuffer_init(), they will now all hold
dma-buf references as fixed in commit 5307dce878d4 ("drm/gem: Acquire
references on GEM handles for framebuffers").

In the GEM framebuffer helpers, restore the original ref counting
on buffer objects. As the helpers for handle refcounting are now
no longer called from outside the DRM core, unexport the symbols.

v3:
- don't mix internal flags with mode flags (Christian)
v2:
- track framebuffer handle refs by flag
- drop gma500 cleanup (Christian)

commit 5307dce878d4126e1b375587318955bd019c3741 upstream.

A GEM handle can be released while the GEM buffer object is attached
to a DRM framebuffer. This leads to the release of the dma-buf backing
the buffer object, if any. [1] Trying to use the framebuffer in further
mode-setting operations leads to a segmentation fault. Most easily
happens with driver that use shadow planes for vmap-ing the dma-buf
during a page flip. An example is shown below.

Acquiring GEM handles for the framebuffer's GEM buffer objects prevents
this from happening. The framebuffer's cleanup later puts the handle
references.

Commit 1a148af06000 ("drm/gem-shmem: Use dma_buf from GEM object
instance") triggers the segmentation fault easily by using the dma-buf
field more widely. The underlying issue with reference counting has
been present before.

v2:
- acquire the handle instead of the BO (Christian)
- fix comment style (Christian)
- drop the Fixes tag (Christian)
- rename err_ gotos
- add missing Link tag

[ Upstream commit 45c4d994b82b08f0ce5eb50f8da29379c92a391e ]

Accel minor management is based on DRM (and is also using struct
drm_minor internally), since DRM is using XArray for minors, it makes
sense to also convert accel.
As the two implementations are identical (only difference being the
underlying xarray), move the accel_minor_* functionality to DRM.

<title>drm/syncobj: add IOCTL to register an eventfd</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c7a472297169156252a50d76965eb36b081186e2</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduce a new DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_EVENTFD IOCTL which signals an
eventfd from a syncobj.

This is useful for Wayland compositors to handle wait-before-submit.
Wayland clients can send a timeline point to the compositor
before the point has materialized yet, then compositors can wait
for the point to materialize via this new IOCTL.

The existing DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_TIMELINE_WAIT IOCTL is not suitable
because it blocks. Compositors want to integrate the wait with
their poll(2)-based event loop.

Requirements for new uAPI:

- User-space patch: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wlroots/wlroots/-/merge_requests/4262
- IGT: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/igt-dev/2023-July/057893.html

v2:
- Wait for fence when flags is zero
- Improve documentation (Pekka)
- Rename IOCTL (Christian)
- Fix typo in drm_syncobj_add_eventfd() (Christian)

v3:
- Link user-space + IGT patches
- Add reference from overview docs

v4: fix IOCTL number conflict with GETFB2 (Nicholas Choi, Vitaly Prosyak)

<content type='text'>
Although the device-centered debugfs functions can track requests for
the addition of DRM debugfs files at any time and have them added all
at once during drm_dev_register(), they are not able to create debugfs
files for modeset components, as they are registered after the primary
and the render drm_minor are registered.

So, create a drm_debugfs_late_register() function, which is responsible
for dealing with the creation of all the debugfs files for modeset
components at once. Therefore, the functions drm_debugfs_add_file()
and drm_debugfs_add_files() can be used in late_register hooks.

Currently we are assuming a one to one mapping between dmabuf and
GEM handle when releasing GEM handles.

But that is not always true, since we would create extra handles for the
GEM obj in cases like gem_open() and getfb{,2}().

A similar issue was reported at:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211105083308.392156-1-jay.xu@rock-chips.com/

Another problem is that the imported dmabuf might not always have
gem_obj-&gt;dma_buf set, which would cause leaks in
drm_gem_remove_prime_handles().

Let's fix these for now by using handle to find the exact map to remove.

<content type='text'>
Rename struct dma_buf_map to struct iosys_map and corresponding APIs.
Over time dma-buf-map grew up to more functionality than the one used by
dma-buf: in fact it's just a shim layer to abstract system memory, that
can be accessed via regular load and store, from IO memory that needs to
be acessed via arch helpers.

The idea is to extend this API so it can fulfill other needs, internal
to a single driver. Example: in the i915 driver it's desired to share
the implementation for integrated graphics, which uses mostly system
memory, with discrete graphics, which may need to access IO memory.

The conversion was mostly done with the following semantic patch:

	@r1@
	@@
	- struct dma_buf_map
	+ struct iosys_map

	@r2@
	@@
	(
	- DMA_BUF_MAP_INIT_VADDR
	+ IOSYS_MAP_INIT_VADDR
	|
	- dma_buf_map_set_vaddr
	+ iosys_map_set_vaddr
	|
	- dma_buf_map_set_vaddr_iomem
	+ iosys_map_set_vaddr_iomem
	|
	- dma_buf_map_is_equal
	+ iosys_map_is_equal
	|
	- dma_buf_map_is_null
	+ iosys_map_is_null
	|
	- dma_buf_map_is_set
	+ iosys_map_is_set
	|
	- dma_buf_map_clear
	+ iosys_map_clear
	|
	- dma_buf_map_memcpy_to
	+ iosys_map_memcpy_to
	|
	- dma_buf_map_incr
	+ iosys_map_incr
	)

	@@
	@@
	- #include &lt;linux/dma-buf-map.h&gt;
	+ #include &lt;linux/iosys-map.h&gt;

Then some files had their includes adjusted and some comments were
update to remove mentions to dma-buf-map.

Since this is not specific to dma-buf anymore, move the documentation to
the "Bus-Independent Device Accesses" section.

v2:
  - Squash patches

v3:
  - Fix wrong removal of dma-buf.h from MAINTAINERS
  - Move documentation from dma-buf.rst to device-io.rst

v4:
  - Change documentation title and level
