DMA-BUF sysfs statistics are an option of DMA-BUF. It does not make
much sense to bother the user with a question about DMA-BUF sysfs
statistics if DMA-BUF itself is not enabled. Worse, enabling the
statistics enables the feature.

Overview
========
The patch adds DMA-BUF statistics to /sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers. It
allows statistics to be enabled for each DMA-BUF in sysfs by enabling
the config CONFIG_DMABUF_SYSFS_STATS.
The following stats will be exposed by the interface:
/sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers/<inode_number>/exporter_name
/sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers/<inode_number>/size
/sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers/<inode_number>/attachments/<attach_uid>/device
/sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers/<inode_number>/attachments/<attach_uid>/map_counter
The inode_number is unique for each DMA-BUF and was added earlier [1]
in order to allow userspace to track DMA-BUF usage across different
processes.
Use Cases
=========
The interface provides a way to gather DMA-BUF per-buffer statistics
from production devices. These statistics will be used to derive DMA-BUF
per-exporter stats and per-device usage stats for Android Bug reports.
The corresponding userspace changes can be found at [2].
Telemetry tools will also capture this information(along with other
memory metrics) periodically as well as on important events like a
foreground app kill (which might have been triggered by Low Memory
Killer). It will also contribute to provide a snapshot of the system
memory usage on other events such as OOM kills and Application Not
Responding events.
Background
==========
Currently, there are two existing interfaces that provide information
about DMA-BUFs.
1) /sys/kernel/debug/dma_buf/bufinfo
debugfs is however unsuitable to be mounted in production systems and
cannot be considered as an alternative to the sysfs interface being
proposed.
2) proc/<pid>/fdinfo/<fd>
The proc/<pid>/fdinfo/<fd> files expose information about DMA-BUF fds.
However, the existing procfs interfaces can only provide information
about the buffers for which processes hold fds or have the buffers
mmapped into their address space. Since the procfs interfaces alone
cannot provide a full picture of all DMA-BUFs in the system, there is
the need for an alternate interface to provide this information on
production systems.
The patch contains the following major improvements over v1:
1) Each attachment is represented by its own directory to allow creating
a symlink to the importing device and to also provide room for future
expansion.
2) The number of distinct mappings of each attachment is exposed in a
separate file.
3) The per-buffer statistics are now in /sys/kernel/dmabuf/buffers
inorder to make the interface expandable in future.
All of the improvements above are based on suggestions/feedback from
Daniel Vetter and Christian König.
A shell script that can be run on a classic Linux environment to read
out the DMA-BUF statistics can be found at [3](suggested by John
Stultz).

We have too many people abusing the struct page they can get at but
really shouldn't in importers. Aside from that the backing page might
simply not exist (for dynamic p2p mappings) looking at it and using it
e.g. for mmap can also wreak the page handling of the exporter
completely. Importers really must go through the proper interface like
dma_buf_mmap for everything.
I'm semi-tempted to enforce this for dynamic importers since those
really have no excuse at all to break the rules.
Unfortuantely we can't store the right pointers somewhere safe to make
sure we oops on something recognizable, so best is to just wrangle
them a bit by flipping all the bits. At least on x86 kernel addresses
have all their high bits sets and the struct page array is fairly low
in the kernel mapping, so flipping all the bits gives us a very high
pointer in userspace and hence excellent chances for an invalid
dereference.
v2: Add a note to the @map_dma_buf hook that exporters shouldn't do
fancy caching tricks, which would blow up with this address scrambling
trick here (Chris)
Enable by default when CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is enabled.
v3: Only one copy of the mangle/unmangle code (Christian)
v4: #ifdef, not #if (0day)
v5: sg_table can also be an ERR_PTR (Chris, Christian)

On the exporter side we add optional explicit pinning callbacks. Which are
called when the importer doesn't implement dynamic handling, move notification
or need the DMA-buf locked in place for its use case.
On the importer side we add an optional move_notify callback. This callback is
used by the exporter to inform the importers that their mappings should be
destroyed as soon as possible.
This allows the exporter to provide the mappings without the need to pin
the backing store.
v2: don't try to invalidate mappings when the callback is NULL,
lock the reservation obj while using the attachments,
add helper to set the callback
v3: move flag for invalidation support into the DMA-buf,
use new attach_info structure to set the callback
v4: use importer_priv field instead of mangling exporter priv.
v5: drop invalidation_supported flag
v6: squash together with pin/unpin changes
