[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 0/7] broadcom/vc4: Native fence fd support

[Stefan Schake]

This series adds support for the native fence fd extension to vc4.
The implementation relies on a newly introduced kernel interface that
allows submitting syncobjs for in/out fences during job submission.

Since syncobjs are relatively new, patches 1 and 3 have build changes
for automake and meson to require a recent libdrm version.

There is some scope here to replace the previous sequence number based
implementation with only syncobjs, but given that we need to continue
supporting older kernels I felt it would have only added complexity.

This has been tested with piglit and kmscube -A(tomic). In particular,
I checked that the fd numbers weren't increasing during the kmscube run.

Should not be merged until the kernel side lands. In particular, patch 2
is purely provisional.
