<interface name="zwp_linux_explicit_synchronization_v1" version="2">
<description summary="protocol for providing explicit synchronization">
This global is a factory interface, allowing clients to request
explicit synchronization for buffers on a per-surface basis.
See zwp_linux_surface_synchronization_v1 for more information.
This interface is derived from Chromium's
zcr_linux_explicit_synchronization_v1.
Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and
backward incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes
may be added together with the corresponding interface version bump.
Backward incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in
the protocol and interface names and resetting the interface version.
Once the protocol is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the
version number in the protocol and interface names are removed and the
interface version number is reset.

Instantiate an interface extension for the given wl_surface to provide
explicit synchronization.
If the given wl_surface already has an explicit synchronization object
associated, the synchronization_exists protocol error is raised.
Graphics APIs, like EGL or Vulkan, that manage the buffer queue and
commits of a wl_surface themselves, are likely to be using this
extension internally. If a client is using such an API for a
wl_surface, it should not directly use this extension on that surface,
to avoid raising a synchronization_exists protocol error.

<description summary="per-surface explicit synchronization support">
This object implements per-surface explicit synchronization.
Synchronization refers to co-ordination of pipelined operations performed
on buffers. Most GPU clients will schedule an asynchronous operation to
render to the buffer, then immediately send the buffer to the compositor
to be attached to a surface.
In implicit synchronization, ensuring that the rendering operation is
complete before the compositor displays the buffer is an implementation
detail handled by either the kernel or userspace graphics driver.
By contrast, in explicit synchronization, dma_fence objects mark when the
asynchronous operations are complete. When submitting a buffer, the
client provides an acquire fence which will be waited on before the
compositor accesses the buffer. The Wayland server, through a
zwp_linux_buffer_release_v1 object, will inform the client with an event
which may be accompanied by a release fence, when the compositor will no
longer access the buffer contents due to the specific commit that
requested the release event.
Each surface can be associated with only one object of this interface at
any time.
In version 1 of this interface, explicit synchronization is only
guaranteed to be supported for buffers created with any version of the
wp_linux_dmabuf buffer factory. Version 2 additionally guarantees
explicit synchronization support for opaque EGL buffers, which is a type
of platform specific buffers described in the EGL_WL_bind_wayland_display
extension. Compositors are free to support explicit synchronization for
additional buffer types.

Set the acquire fence that must be signaled before the compositor
may sample from the buffer attached with wl_surface.attach. The fence
is a dma_fence kernel object.
The acquire fence is double-buffered state, and will be applied on the
next wl_surface.commit request for the associated surface. Thus, it
applies only to the buffer that is attached to the surface at commit
time.
If the provided fd is not a valid dma_fence fd, then an INVALID_FENCE
error is raised.
If a fence has already been attached during the same commit cycle, a
DUPLICATE_FENCE error is raised.
If the associated wl_surface was destroyed, a NO_SURFACE error is
raised.
If at surface commit time the attached buffer does not support explicit
synchronization, an UNSUPPORTED_BUFFER error is raised.
If at surface commit time there is no buffer attached, a NO_BUFFER
error is raised.

<description summary="buffer release explicit synchronization">
This object is instantiated in response to a
zwp_linux_surface_synchronization_v1.get_release request.
It provides an alternative to wl_buffer.release events, providing a
unique release from a single wl_surface.commit request. The release event
also supports explicit synchronization, providing a fence FD for the
client to synchronize against.
Exactly one event, either a fenced_release or an immediate_release, will
be emitted for the wl_surface.commit request. The compositor can choose
release by release which event it uses.
This event does not replace wl_buffer.release events; servers are still
required to send those events.
Once a buffer release object has delivered a 'fenced_release' or an
'immediate_release' event it is automatically destroyed.

<event name="fenced_release">
<description summary="release buffer with fence">
Sent when the compositor has finalised its usage of the associated
buffer for the relevant commit, providing a dma_fence which will be
signaled when all operations by the compositor on that buffer for that
commit have finished.
Once the fence has signaled, and assuming the associated buffer is not
pending release from other wl_surface.commit requests, no additional
explicit or implicit synchronization is required to safely reuse or
destroy the buffer.
This event destroys the zwp_linux_buffer_release_v1 object.

pending release from other wl_surface.commit requests, no additional
