There is no need to synchronize with oustanding retire jobs if the object has gone idle. Retire jobs only ever change the object state from active to idle, not the other way around. The IOVA put race is uncritical, as the GEM_WAIT ioctl itself is holding a reference to the GEM object, so the retire worker will not pull the object into the CPU domain, which is the thing we are trying to guard against with etnaviv_gpu_wait_obj_inactive. The ordering of the various counts and waits may change a bit, but the userspace visible behavior at the bounds of the syscall are unchanged.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
