Userspace might poll a syncobj with the query ioctl.  Call
dma_fence_enable_sw_signaling to ensure dma_fence_is_signaled returns
true in finite time.

Wait a second, just querying the fence status is absolutely not 
guaranteed to return true in finite time. That is well documented on the 
dma_fence() object.

When you want to poll on signaling from userspace you really need to 
call poll or the wait IOCTL with a zero timeout. That will also return 
immediately but should enable signaling while doing that.

So just querying the status should absolutely *not* enable signaling. 
That's an intentional separation.

Regards,
Christian.

I think it depends on what semantics DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_QUERY should have.

If DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_QUERY is mainly for vulkan timeline semaphores,
it is a bit heavy if userspace has to do a
DRM_IOCTL_SYNCOBJ_TIMELINE_WAIT before a query.
