Subject: [PATCH 1/1] [tegra] Make syncpt routines accessible by drivers

From: Andrew Chew <[email protected]>

Make some Tegra syncpt routines accessible by kernel drivers that need
to use the syncpt mechanism. This is similar to how some nvmap stuff
is made accessible to kernel drivers.

If you want to use syncpts you should be an nvhost_driver link the dc.

Looking at drivers/video/tegra/dc, I notice that it gets access to the syncpt functions by using a relative path (../host/dev.h) to include dev.h, which in turn includes nvhost_syncpt.h (in drivers/video/tegra/host). Is this proper form?

This syncpt access is for a Tegra V4L2 driver, which will live in drivers/media/video. I was trying to avoid using relative paths for #includes. I assumed that the header files in drivers/video/tegra/host were not meant to be publicly available to other drivers, which is why I looked for some precedent in how nvhost functions were made available to other kernel drivers, hence I modeled this after nvmap.-

Yeah, including the relative path was a bit of a hack since the nvhost
drivers needs some serious work before it's upstreamable. A "right"
way to do this is to have the syncpt functions take an nvhost_device
pointer (or create helper functions that do that,) then expose those
functions in mach/nvhost.h. This obviates the need for a global
nvhost_sycpt pointer.

You're right about that global nvhost_syncpt pointer. That drives me nuts as well. Nevertheless, I'm not sure I'm knowledgeable enough to do the required work to do this the "right" way. As far as I know, nvhost is a guaranteed singleton in practice (not in implementation), so while this is ugly, it will work fine for existing projects.

Can we use nvmap as precedent and do it this way for now? I'd like to get the V4L2 camera host driver up to the Tegra community as soon as possible. When the problem is solved for the dc driver, I can adapt that to the V4L2 camera host driver.

If you feel uncomfortable making this change, I recommend you include
the private header file the way the dc does.

nvmap (another piece of code that needs a lot of work before it's
upstream) is a horrible example to use as a precedent. This whole
discussion is somewhat moot as you're building your driver against two
pieces that have no clear path to being upstreamed. You are welcome
to make any changes you want in your own repository for supporing V4L2
but I won't be pulling this syncpt patch into
git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/tegra.git.

Okay, I'll do it this way then.-
