From: Brian Starkey <brian.starkey@arm.com>

Add the WRITEBACK_OUT_FENCE_PTR property to writeback connectors, to
enable userspace to get a fence which will signal once the writeback is
complete. It is not allowed to request an out-fence without a
framebuffer attached to the connector.

A timeline is added to drm_writeback_connector for use by the writeback
out-fences.

In the case of a commit failure or DRM_MODE_ATOMIC_TEST_ONLY, the fence
is set to -1.

Changes from v2:
 - Rebase onto Gustavo Padovan's v9 explicit sync series
 - Change out_fence_ptr type to s32 __user *
 - Set *out_fence_ptr to -1 in drm_atomic_connector_set_property
 - Store fence in drm_writeback_job
 Gustavo Padovan:
 - Move out_fence_ptr out of connector_state
 - Signal fence from drm_writeback_signal_completion instead of
   in driver directly

Changes from v3:
 - Rebase onto commit 7e9081c5aac7 ("drm/fence: fix memory overwrite
   when setting out_fence fd") (change out_fence_ptr to s32 __user *,
   for real this time.)
 - Update documentation around WRITEBACK_OUT_FENCE_PTR

Move this hunk into patch 1?

Other than that, the series is:

Reviewed-by: Eric Anholt <eric@anholt.net>

It's pretty clean and makes sense to me.  I only had some questions
about the job_queue, which seems superfluous if we aren't supporting
firing off a new writeback while an old one is outstanding (and maybe we
should throw an error in that case).  Still, I think this is ready to land.

I can, however this is the only change I will be making. Is it worth
respinning a new revision for it?

Many thanks for that!

I know Sean and Daniel are on holiday. Are you OK to pull this into
drm-misc? Should I ask Gustavo to do it?

Best regards,
