The init order and resulting error handling in dma_buf_export
was pretty messy.
Subordinate objects like the file and the sysfs kernel objects
were initializing and wiring itself up with the object in the
wrong order resulting not only in complicating and partially
incorrect error handling, but also in publishing only halve
initialized DMA-buf objects.
Clean this up thoughtfully by allocating the file independent
of the DMA-buf object. Then allocate and initialize the DMA-buf
object itself, before publishing it through sysfs. If everything
works as expected the file is then connected with the DMA-buf
object and publish it through debugfs.
Also adds the missing dma_resv_fini() into the error handling.
v2: add some missing changes to dma_bug_getfile() and a missing NULL
check in dma_buf_file_release()

The DMA-BUF attachment statistics form a subset of the DMA-BUF
sysfs statistics that recently merged to the drm-misc tree. They are not
UABI yet since they have not merged to the upstream Linux kernel.
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.

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).
