Usually we have no idea about the upper bound we need to wait to catch
up with userspace when idling the device, but in a few situations we
know the system was idle beforehand and can provide a short timeout in
order to very quickly catch a failure, long before hangcheck kicks in.
In the following patches, we will use the timeout to curtain two overly
long waits, where we know we can expect the GPU to complete within a
reasonable time or declare it broken.
In particular, with a broken GPU we expect it to fail during the initial
GPU setup where do a couple of context switches to record the defaults.
This is a task that takes a few milliseconds even on the slowest of
devices, but we may have to wait 60s for hangcheck to give in and
declare the machine inoperable. In this a case where any gpu hang is
unacceptable, both from a timeliness and practical standpoint.
The other improvement is that in selftests, we do not need to arm an
independent timer to inject a wedge, as we can just limit the timeout on
the wait directly.
v2: Include the timeout parameter in the trace.

A bug recently encountered involved the issue where are we were
submitting requests to different ppGTT, each would pin a segment of the
GGTT for its logical context and ring. However, this is invisible to
eviction as we do not tie the context/ring VMA to a request and so do
not automatically wait upon it them (instead they are marked as pinned,
preventing eviction entirely). Instead the eviction code must flush those
contexts by switching to the kernel context. This selftest tries to
fill the GGTT with contexts to exercise a path where the
switch-to-kernel-context failed to make forward progress and we fail
with ENOSPC.
v2: Make the hole in the filled GGTT explicit.

In the full-ppgtt world, we can fill the GGTT full of context objects.
These context objects are currently implicitly tracked by the requests
that pin them i.e. they are only unpinned when the request is completed
and retired, but we do not have the link from the vma to the request
(anymore). In order to unpin those contexts, we have to issue another
request and wait upon the switch to the kernel context.
The bug during eviction was that we assumed that a full GGTT meant we
would have requests on the GGTT timeline, and so we missed situations
where those requests where merely in flight (and when even they have not
yet been submitted to hw yet). The fix employed here is to change the
already-is-idle test to no look at the execution timeline, but count the
outstanding requests and then check that we have switched to the kernel
context. Erring on the side of overkill here just means that we stall a
little longer than may be strictly required, but we only expect to hit
this path in extreme corner cases where returning an erroneous error is
worse than the delay.

When userspace is doing most of the work, avoiding relocs (using
NO_RELOC) and opting out of implicit synchronisation (using ASYNC), we
still spend a lot of time processing the arrays in execbuf, even though
we now should have nothing to do most of the time. One issue that
becomes readily apparent in profiling anv is that iterating over the
large execobj[] is unfriendly to the loop prefetchers of the CPU and it
much prefers iterating over a pair of arrays rather than one big array.

The major scaling bottleneck in execbuffer is the processing of the
execobjects. Creating an auxiliary list is inefficient when compared to
using the execobject array we already have allocated.
Reservation is then split into phases. As we lookup up the VMA, we
try and bind it back into active location. Only if that fails, do we add
it to the unbound list for phase 2. In phase 2, we try and add all those
objects that could not fit into their previous location, with fallback
to retrying all objects and evicting the VM in case of severe
fragmentation. (This is the same as before, except that phase 1 is now
done inline with looking up the VMA to avoid an iteration over the
execobject array. In the ideal case, we eliminate the separate reservation
phase). During the reservation phase, we only evict from the VM between
passes (rather than currently as we try to fit every new VMA). In
testing with Unreal Engine's Atlantis demo which stresses the eviction
logic on gen7 class hardware, this speed up the framerate by a factor of
2.
The second loop amalgamation is between move_to_gpu and move_to_active.
As we always submit the request, even if incomplete, we can use the
current request to track active VMA as we perform the flushes and
synchronisation required.
The next big advancement is to avoid copying back to the user any
execobjects and relocations that are not changed.
v2: Add a Theory of Operation spiel.
v3: Fall back to slow relocations in preparation for flushing userptrs.
v4: Document struct members, factor out eb_validate_vma(), add a few
more comments to explain some magic and hide other magic behind macros.

Soft-pinning depends upon being able to check for availabilty of an
interval and evict overlapping object from a drm_mm range manager very
quickly. Currently it uses a linear list, and so performance is dire and
not suitable as a general replacement. Worse, the current code will oops
if it tries to evict an active buffer.
It also helps if the routine reports the correct error codes as expected
by its callers and emits a tracepoint upon use.
For posterity since the wrong patch was pushed (i.e. that missed these
key points and had known bugs), this is the changelog that should have
been on commit 506a8e87d8 ("drm/i915: Add soft-pinning API for
execbuffer"):
Userspace can pass in an offset that it presumes the object is located
at. The kernel will then do its utmost to fit the object into that
location. The assumption is that userspace is handling its own object
locations (for example along with full-ppgtt) and that the kernel will
rarely have to make space for the user's requests.
This extends the DRM_IOCTL_I915_GEM_EXECBUFFER2 to do the following:
* if the user supplies a virtual address via the execobject->offset
*and* sets the EXEC_OBJECT_PINNED flag in execobject->flags, then
that object is placed at that offset in the address space selected
by the context specifier in execbuffer.
* the location must be aligned to the GTT page size, 4096 bytes
* as the object is placed exactly as specified, it may be used by this
execbuffer call without relocations pointing to it
It may fail to do so if:
* EINVAL is returned if the object does not have a 4096 byte aligned
address
* the object conflicts with another pinned object (either pinned by
hardware in that address space, e.g. scanouts in the aliasing ppgtt)
or within the same batch.
EBUSY is returned if the location is pinned by hardware
EINVAL is returned if the location is already in use by the batch
* EINVAL is returned if the object conflicts with its own alignment (as meets
the hardware requirements) or if the placement of the object does not fit
within the address space
All other execbuffer errors apply.
Presence of this execbuf extension may be queried by passing
I915_PARAM_HAS_EXEC_SOFTPIN to DRM_IOCTL_I915_GETPARAM and checking for
a reported value of 1 (or greater).
v2: Combine the hole/adjusted-hole ENOSPC checks
v3: More color, more splitting, more blurb.

We want to decouple RPM and struct_mutex, but currently RPM has to walk
the list of bound objects and remove userspace mmapping before we
suspend (otherwise userspace may continue to access the GTT whilst it is
powered down). This currently requires the struct_mutex to walk the
bound_list, but if we move that to a separate list and lock we can take
the first step towards removing the struct_mutex.
v2: Split runtime suspend unmapping vs regular unmapping, to make the
locking (and barriers) clearer. Add the object to the userfault_list
prior to inserting the first PTE, the race between add/revoke depends
upon struct_mutex for regular unmappings and rpm for runtime-suspend.

With the possibility of addition of many more number of rings in future,
the drm_i915_private structure could bloat as an array, of type
intel_engine_cs, is embedded inside it.
struct intel_engine_cs engine[I915_NUM_ENGINES];
Though this is still fine as generally there is only a single instance of
drm_i915_private structure used, but not all of the possible rings would be
enabled or active on most of the platforms. Some memory can be saved by
allocating intel_engine_cs structure only for the enabled/active engines.
Currently the engine/ring ID is kept static and dev_priv->engine[] is simply
indexed using the enums defined in intel_engine_id.
To save memory and continue using the static engine/ring IDs, 'engine' is
defined as an array of pointers.
struct intel_engine_cs *engine[I915_NUM_ENGINES];
dev_priv->engine[engine_ID] will be NULL for disabled engine instances.
There is a text size reduction of 928 bytes, from 1028200 to 1027272, for
i915.o file (but for i915.ko file text size remain same as 1193131 bytes).
v2:
- Remove the engine iterator field added in drm_i915_private structure,
instead pass a local iterator variable to the for_each_engine**
macros. (Chris)
- Do away with intel_engine_initialized() and instead directly use the

v3:
- Remove for_each_engine_id() macro, as the updated macro for_each_engine()

The principal motivation for this was to try and eliminate the
struct_mutex from i915_gem_suspend - but we still need to hold the mutex
current for the i915_gem_context_lost(). (The issue there is that there
may be an indirect lockdep cycle between cpu_hotplug (i.e. suspend) and
struct_mutex via the stop_machine().) For the moment, enabling last
request tracking for the engine, allows us to do busyness checking and
waiting without requiring the struct_mutex - which is useful in its own
right.
As a side-effect of having a robust means for tracking engine busyness,
we can replace our other busyness heuristic, that of comparing against
the last submitted seqno. For paranoid reasons, we have a semi-ordered
check of that seqno inside the hangchecker, which we can now improve to
an ordered check of the engine's busyness (removing a locked xchg in the
process).
