I understand this discussion from closes source driver terminology.

If a process is killed before it sends out the signaling command, will some part of the GPU be in a waiting situation forever?


Yes, exactly that's the problem here and the reason why that even Microsoft forbids that under windows.

            This interface will allow sync object to be used to back
            Vulkan fences. This API is pretty much the vulkan fence
            waiting
            API, and I've ported the code from amdgpu.

            v2: accept relative timeout, pass remaining time back
            to userspace.
            v3: return to absolute timeouts.
            v4: absolute zero = poll,
                rewrite any/all code to have same operation for arrays
                return -EINVAL for 0 fences.
            v4.1: fixup fences allocation check, use u64_to_user_ptr
            v5: move to sec/nsec, and use timespec64 for calcs.
            v6: use -ETIME and drop the out status flag. (-ETIME
            is suggested by ickle, I can feel a shed painting)

        So, reading some CTS tests again, and I think we have a
        problem here.  The Vulkan spec allows you to wait on a fence
        that is in the unsignaled state.

    At least on the closed source driver that would be illegal as far
    as I know.

Then they are doing workarounds in userspace. There are definitely CTS tests for this:

https://github.com/KhronosGroup/VK-GL-CTS/blob/master/external/vulkancts/modules/vulkan/synchronization/vktSynchronizationBasicFenceTests.cpp#L74

    You can't wait on a semaphore before the signal operation is send
    down to the kerel.

We (Intel) deal with this today by tracking whether or not the fence has been submitted and using a condition variable in userspace to sort it all out. If we ever want to share fences across processes (which we do), then this needs to be sorted in the kernel.

    Regards,
    Christian.




          In theory, you could have thread A start waiting on a fence
before thread B submits the work which triggers that fence. This means that the dma_fence may not exist yet when
        vkWaitForFences gets called.  If we really want to support the
        full Vulkan usage, we need to somehow support missing
        dma_fences by waiting for the dma_fence to show up.
        Unfortunately, I don't know enough about the internal kernel
        APIs to know what that would look like.
