Subject: [PATCH 0/6] dma-fence: Remove return code of dma_fence_signal() et al.
Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2025 14:19:09 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251126131914.149445-2-phasta@kernel.org> (raw)
Barely anyone uses dma_fence_signal()'s (and similar functions') return
code. Checking it is pretty much useless anyways, because what are you
going to do if a fence was already signal it? Unsignal it and signal it
again? ;p
Removing the return code simplifies the API and makes it easier for me
to sit on top with Rust DmaFence.
Philipp Stanner (6):
dma-buf/dma-fence: Add dma_fence_test_signaled_flag()
amd/amdkfd: Ignore return code of dma_fence_signal()
drm/gpu/xe: Ignore dma_fenc_signal() return code
dma-buf: Don't misuse dma_fence_signal()
drm/ttm: Remove return check of dma_fence_signal()
dma-buf/dma-fence: Remove return code of signaling-functions
