7	---help---
8	  The Sync File Framework adds explicit syncronization via
9	  userspace. It enables send/receive 'struct dma_fence' objects to/from
10	  userspace via Sync File fds for synchronization between drivers via
11	  userspace components. It has been ported from Android.
12
13	  The first and main user for this is graphics in which a fence is
14	  associated with a buffer. When a job is submitted to the GPU a fence
15	  is attached to the buffer and is transferred via userspace, using Sync
16	  Files fds, to the DRM driver for example. More details at
17	  Documentation/sync_file.txt.

24	---help---
25	  A sync object driver that uses a 32bit counter to coordinate
26	  synchronization.  Useful when there is no hardware primitive backing
27	  the synchronization.
28
29	  WARNING: improper use of this can result in deadlocking kernel
30	  drivers from userspace. Intended for test and debug only.

37	help
38	  A driver to let userspace turn memfd regions into dma-bufs.
39	  Qemu can use this to create host dmabufs for guest framebuffers.
