Currently dma_fence_signal() tries to avoid the spinlock and only takes it if absolutely required to walk the callback list. However, to allow for some users to surreptitiously insert lazy signal callbacks that do not depend on enabling the signaling mechanism around every fence, we always need to notify the callbacks on signaling. As such, we will always need to take the spinlock and dma_fence_signal() effectively becomes a clone of dma_fence_signal_locked().

I need to take my review back. You also need to drop this test_and_set_bit here or your completely break drivers using this.
First time we were here, it was just a plain test_bit(). Skipping a patch, so had to start from scratch... (I blame glancing at the original outcome and glossing over the test_bit vs test_and_set_bit.)
Time for a pile of dma_fence selftests? Maybe with a bit of dma_resv thrown in for good? This stuff is tricky, and it feels like we had a few oopsies in review recently ...
dma_fence_signal vs dma_fence_add_callback
Something like:
while (!timeout) f1 = mock_fence_create() push f1 to other thread pull f2 from other thread dma_fence_signal(f2); dma_fence_add_callback(f1) dma_fence_signal(f1); check cb
Can't see an obvious way to make the test_and_set_bit window larger. -Chris
