Some drivers have hardware capability to get the precise HW timestamp of certain events based on which the fences are triggered. The delta between the event HW timestamp & current HW reference timestamp can be used to calculate the timestamp in kernel's CLOCK_MONOTONIC time domain. This allows it to set accurate timestamp factoring out any software and IRQ latencies. Add a timestamp variant of fence signal function, dma_fence_signal_timestamp to allow drivers to update the precise timestamp for fences. Changes in v2: - Add a new fence signal variant instead of modifying fence struct Changes in v3: - Add timestamp domain information to commit-text and dma_fence_signal_timestamp documentation Signed-off-by: Veera Sundaram Sankaran <veeras@codeaurora.org> Reviewed-by: John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Sumit Semwal <sumit.semwal@linaro.org> [sumits: minor parenthesis alignment] Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/1610757107-11892-1-git-send-email-veeras@codeaurora.org |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
