Re: [PATCH] dma-buf: Delete the DMA-BUF attachment sysfs statistics

Am 10.07.21 um 07:10 schrieb Hridya Valsaraju:

The DMA-BUF attachment statistics form a subset of the DMA-BUF sysfs statistics that recently merged to the drm-misc tree. Since there has been a reported a performance regression due to the overhead of sysfs directory creation/teardown during dma_buf_attach()/dma_buf_detach(), this patch deletes the DMA-BUF attachment statistics from sysfs.

Hello all,

One of our partners recently reported a perf regression in a driver which was being caused due to the overhead of setup/teardown of the sysfs attachment statistics in the dma_buf_attach()/dma_buf_detach() invocations. Since the driver's latency requirements were of the order of microseconds(~100us), the overhead was significant.

I find it rather questionable to rely on the performance of attach cause that can easily take more than 10ms depending on memory migration needs of the exporter.

You should probably consider changing this use case to use cached attachments instead.

Since this indicates that the solution might not work well for all DMA-BUF importers, I think the right thing to do might be to delete the same before it reaches upstream and becomes ABI :( I apologize for the inconvenience.

The information that this is not UABI yet should be part of the commit message.

Apart from that feel free to add Reviewed-by: Christian König christian.koenig@amd.com

This patch is based on the drm-misc-next branch. Please feel free to let me know if you would prefer that I send a full revert and new patch that adds the rest of the statistics.

Yeah, that's perfectly ok. Please provide a v2 with updated commit message and I can push that ASAP.

Regards, Christian.

Regards, Hridya
