+ *
+ * - Drivers must add a shared fence through dma_resv_add_shared_fence()
+ * for anything the userspace API considers a read access. This highly
+ * depends upon the API and window system.
+ *
+ * - Similarly drivers must set the exclusive fence through
+ * dma_resv_add_excl_fence() for anything the userspace API considers
+ * write access.
+ *
+ * - Drivers may just always set the exclusive fence, since that only
+ * causes unecessarily synchronization, but no correctness issues.
+ *
+ * - Some drivers only expose a synchronous userspace API with no
+ * pipelining across drivers. These do not set any fences for their
+ * access. An example here is v4l.
+ *
+ * DYNAMIC IMPORTER RULES:
+ *
+ * Dynamic importers, see dma_buf_attachment_is_dynamic(), have
+ * additional constraints on how they set up fences:
+ *
+ * - Dynamic importers must obey the exclusive fence and wait for it to
+ * signal before allowing access to the buffer's underlying storage
+ * through the device.
+ *
+ * - Dynamic importers should set fences for any access that they can't
+ * disable immediately from their &dma_buf_attach_ops.move_notify
+ * callback.
