Commit Message

Matthew Brost Oct. 13, 2021, 8:42 p.m. UTC
For some users of multi-lrc, e.g. split frame, it isn't safe to preempt
mid BB. To safely enable preemption at the BB boundary, a handshake
between parent and child is needed, syncing the set of BBs at the
beginning and end of each batch. This is implemented via custom
emit_bb_start & emit_fini_breadcrumb functions and enabled by default if
a context is configured by set parallel extension.

Lastly, this patch updates the process descriptor to the correct size as
the memory used in the handshake is directly after the process
descriptor.

v2:
 (John Harrison)
  - Fix a few comments wording
  - Add struture for parent page layout
v3:
 (Jojhn Harrison)
  - A structure for sync semaphore
  - Use offsetof to calc address
  - Update commit message
