Block device required?

I presume you tried the EWOULDBLOCK which would be implied by your
sentence and found that would be an interesting experience.

Yes, if WAIT_FOR_SUBMIT is set, then that will block device.

No, the error message is that it requires a "block device", not that it
will block the device, which is EWOULDBLOCK.

ENXIO -- for the non-existent "address" along the timeline.
EOPNOTSUPP -- also makes sense, but we've started to use that for
interface not supported, so would be a bit inconsistent across drm.

Or ENOTBLK, being very clear in the commit message how it doesn't reflect
the original meaning (as would be given by strerror()) and why the
seemingly more natural EWOULDBLOCK doesn't work for drm in this case,
and what use case that needs to distinguish this particular case (i.e.
why EINVAL isn't good enough).

Ah, I think I don't want EWOULDBLOCK, which will try again and again 
ioctl, that is not my movitation.

I just need a meaningful value to identify the underlying fence isn't 
ready on syncobj.

Because it is in 'else' case, ENOTBLK is correct to say here need block 
but WAIT_FOR_SUBMIT isn't set.

This would break existing tests for binary syncobjs.

Is this really what we want?

How does this breaks binary syncobj?

I want to use this meaningful return value to judge if WaitBeforeSignal 
happens.

I think this is the cheapest change for that.

This is used in the submission path of several drivers.

Changing the error code will change what the drivers are reporting to 
userspace and could break tests.


i915 doesn't use that function so it's not affected but 
lima/panfrost/vc4 seem to be.

I thought the plan was to add a new ioctl to query the last submitted value.

Did I misunderstand?

anyone from vc4 can confirm this? There are many place in wait_ioctl 
being able to return previous EINVAL, not sure what they use to.

Yes, that is optional way too.  I just thought changing return value is 
very cheap, isn't it?

I could be misguided but I thought the kernel policy was to never break 
userspace.

I'm not sure where this sits :/

This will only return the new error when there is no chain fence in the 
syncobj?

Don't you want the new error code after dma_fence_chain_find_seqno() too?


Which make me realize there is probably a bug with this code :


ret = dma_fence_chain_find_seqno(fence, point);
if (!ret)
         return 0;
dma_fence_put(*fence);


Sounds like the condition should be

if (ret)

         return ret;


I realize we have introduced a blocking behavior on the transfer ioctl.

If we're going to change this to return EWOULDBLOCK, we might want to 
get rid of it.

If all of you agree, that's best.
I've checked orginal EINVAL，there are 3 situations which would return 
EINVAL:
a. invalid flags
b. count_handles
c. failed to find fence in syncobj.

If user can make sure sanitization for paramters, then EINVAL can be 
used to identify "lack of fence in syncobj", which is waitBeforeSignal. 
I use it in my current implementation.

No, I don't want to that, I just want to a meaningful and unique error 
code for umd.

Sounds right, but I think current implementation is acceptable as well.
