Lionel Landwerlin c822e05918 drm/i915: expose rcs topology through query uAPI
With the introduction of asymmetric slices in CNL, we cannot rely on
the previous SUBSLICE_MASK getparam to tell userspace what subslices
are available. Here we introduce a more detailed way of querying the
Gen's GPU topology that doesn't aggregate numbers.

This is essential for monitoring parts of the GPU with the OA unit,
because counters need to be normalized to the number of
EUs/subslices/slices. The current aggregated numbers like EU_TOTAL do
not gives us sufficient information.

The Mesa series making use of this API is :

As a bonus we can draw representations of the GPU :

v2: Rename uapi struct s/_mask/_info/ (Tvrtko)
    Report max_slice/subslice/eus_per_subslice rather than strides (Tvrtko)
    Add uapi macros to read data from *_info structs (Tvrtko)

v3: Use !!(v & DRM_I915_BIT()) for uapi macros instead of custom shifts (Tvrtko)

v4: factorize query item writting (Tvrtko)
    tweak uapi struct/define names (Tvrtko)

v5: Replace ALIGN() macro (Chris)

v6: Updated uapi comments (Tvrtko)
    Moved flags != 0 checks into vfuncs (Tvrtko)

v7: Use access_ok() before copying anything, to avoid overflows (Chris)
    Switch BUG_ON() to GEM_WARN_ON() (Tvrtko)

v8: Tweak uapi comments style to match the coding style (Lionel)

v9: Fix error in comment about computation of enabled subslice (Tvrtko)

v10: Fix/update comments in uAPI (Sagar)

v11: Drop drm_i915_query_(slice|subslice|eu)_info in favor of a single
     drm_i915_query_topology_info (Joonas)

v12: Add subslice_stride/eu_stride in drm_i915_query_topology_info (Joonas)

v13: Fix comment in uAPI (Joonas)

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
