Having weaned the interrupt handling off using a single global execution
queue, we no longer need to emit a global_seqno. Note that we still have
a few assumptions about execution order along engine timelines, but this
removes the most obvious artefact!

Currently, we accumulate each time a context hangs the GPU, offset
against the number of requests it submits, and if that score exceeds a
certain threshold, we ban that context from submitting any more requests
(cancelling any work in flight). In contrast, we use a simple timer on
the file, that if we see more than a 9 hangs faster than 60s apart in
total across all of its contexts, we will ban the client from creating
any more contexts. This leads to a confusing situation where the file
may be banned before the context, so lets use a simple timer scheme for
each.
If the context submits 3 hanging requests within a 120s period, declare
it forbidden to ever send more requests.
This has the advantage of not being easy to repair by simply sending
empty requests, but has the disadvantage that if the context is idle
then it is forgiven. However, if the context is idle, it is not
disrupting the system, but a hog can evade the request counting and
cause much more severe disruption to the system.
Updating ban_score from request retirement is dubious as the retirement
is purposely not in sync with request submission (i.e. we try and batch
retirement to reduce overhead and avoid latency on submission), which
leads to surprising situations where we can forgive a hang immediately
due to a backlog of requests from before the hang being retired
afterwards.

Previously, we were able to rely on the recursive properties of
struct_mutex to allow us to serialise revoking mmaps and reacquiring the
FENCE registers with them being clobbered over a global device reset.
I then proceeded to throw out the baby with the bath water in order to
pursue a struct_mutex-less reset.
Perusing LWN for alternative strategies, the dilemma on how to serialise
access to a global resource on one side was answered by
https://lwn.net/Articles/202847/ -- Sleepable RCU:
1 int readside(void) {
2 int idx;
3 rcu_read_lock();
4 if (nomoresrcu) {
5 rcu_read_unlock();
6 return -EINVAL;
7 }
8 idx = srcu_read_lock(&ss);
9 rcu_read_unlock();
10 /* SRCU read-side critical section. */
11 srcu_read_unlock(&ss, idx);
12 return 0;
13 }
14
15 void cleanup(void)
16 {
17 nomoresrcu = 1;
18 synchronize_rcu();
19 synchronize_srcu(&ss);
20 cleanup_srcu_struct(&ss);
21 }
No more worrying about stop_machine, just an uber-complex mutex,
optimised for reads, with the overhead pushed to the rare reset path.
However, we do run the risk of a deadlock as we allocate underneath the
SRCU read lock, and the allocation may require a GPU reset, causing a
dependency cycle via the in-flight requests. We resolve that by declaring
the driver wedged and cancelling all in-flight rendering.

Missed breadcrumb detection is defunct due to the tight coupling with
dma_fence signaling and the myriad ways we may signal fences from
everywhere but from an interrupt, i.e. we frequently signal a fence
before we even see its interrupt. This means that even if we miss an
interrupt for a fence, it still is signaled before our breadcrumb
hangcheck fires, so simplify the breadcrumb hangchecking by moving it
into the GPU hangcheck and forgo fake interrupts.

A few years ago, see commit 688e6c7258 ("drm/i915: Slaughter the
thundering i915_wait_request herd"), the issue of handling multiple
clients waiting in parallel was brought to our attention. The
requirement was that every client should be woken immediately upon its
request being signaled, without incurring any cpu overhead.
To handle certain fragility of our hw meant that we could not do a
simple check inside the irq handler (some generations required almost
unbounded delays before we could be sure of seqno coherency) and so
request completion checking required delegation.
Before commit 688e6c7258, the solution was simple. Every client
waiting on a request would be woken on every interrupt and each would do
a heavyweight check to see if their request was complete. Commit
688e6c7258 introduced an rbtree so that only the earliest waiter on
the global timeline would woken, and would wake the next and so on.
(Along with various complications to handle requests being reordered
along the global timeline, and also a requirement for kthread to provide
a delegate for fence signaling that had no process context.)
The global rbtree depends on knowing the execution timeline (and global
seqno). Without knowing that order, we must instead check all contexts
queued to the HW to see which may have advanced. We trim that list by
only checking queued contexts that are being waited on, but still we
keep a list of all active contexts and their active signalers that we
inspect from inside the irq handler. By moving the waiters onto the fence
signal list, we can combine the client wakeup with the dma_fence
signaling (a dramatic reduction in complexity, but does require the HW
being coherent, the seqno must be visible from the cpu before the
interrupt is raised - we keep a timer backup just in case).
Having previously fixed all the issues with irq-seqno serialisation (by
inserting delays onto the GPU after each request instead of random delays
on the CPU after each interrupt), we can rely on the seqno state to
perfom direct wakeups from the interrupt handler. This allows us to
preserve our single context switch behaviour of the current routine,
with the only downside that we lose the RT priority sorting of wakeups.
In general, direct wakeup latency of multiple clients is about the same
(about 10% better in most cases) with a reduction in total CPU time spent
in the waiter (about 20-50% depending on gen). Average herd behaviour is
improved, but at the cost of not delegating wakeups on task_prio.
v2: Capture fence signaling state for error state and add comments to
warm even the most cold of hearts.
v3: Check if the request is still active before busywaiting
v4: Reduce the amount of pointer misdirection with list_for_each_safe
and using a local i915_request variable inside the loops
v5: Add a missing pluralisation to a purely informative selftest message.

Now that the submission backends are controlled via their own spinlocks,
with a wave of a magic wand we can lift the struct_mutex requirement
around GPU reset. That is we allow the submission frontend (userspace)
to keep on submitting while we process the GPU reset as we can suspend
the backend independently.
The major change is around the backoff/handoff strategy for performing
the reset. With no mutex deadlock, we no longer have to coordinate with
any waiter, and just perform the reset immediately.

Currently, we convert the error state into a string every time we read
from sysfs (and sysfs reads in page size (4KiB) chunks). We do try to
window the string and only capture the portion that is being read, but
that means that we must always convert up to the window to find the
start. For a very large error state bordering on EXEC_OBJECT_CAPTURE
abuse, this is noticeable as it degrades to O(N^2)!
As we do not have a convenient hook for sysfs open(), and we would like
to keep the lazy conversion into a string, do the conversion of the
whole string on the first read and keep the string until the error state
is freed.

Currently, we rely on inspecting the hangcheck state from within the
i915_reset() routines to determine which engines were guilty of the
hang. This is problematic for cases where we want to run
i915_handle_error() and call i915_reset() independently of hangcheck.
Instead of relying on the indirect parameter passing, turn it into an
explicit parameter providing the set of stalled engines which then are
treated as guilty until proven innocent.
While we are removing the implicit stalled parameter, also make the
reason into an explicit parameter to i915_reset(). We still need a
back-channel for i915_handle_error() to hand over the task to the locked
waiter, but let's keep that its own channel rather than incriminate
another.
This leaves stalled/seqno as being private to hangcheck, with no more
nefarious snooping by reset, be it whole-device or per-engine. \o/
The only real issue now is that this makes it crystal clear that we
don't actually do any testing of hangcheck per se in
drv_selftest/live_hangcheck, merely of resets!
