A starting point to counter the pervasive struct_mutex. For the goal of
avoiding (or at least blocking under them!) global locks during user
request submission, a simple but important step is being able to manage
each clients GTT separately. For which, we want to replace using the
struct_mutex as the guard for all things GTT/VM and switch instead to a
specific mutex inside i915_address_space.

Our goal is to remove struct_mutex and replace it with fine grained
locking. One of the thorny issues is our eviction logic for reclaiming
space for an execbuffer (or GTT mmaping, among a few other examples).
While eviction itself is easy to move under a per-VM mutex, performing
the activity tracking is less agreeable. One solution is not to do any
MRU tracking and do a simple coarse evaluation during eviction of
active/inactive, with a loose temporal ordering of last
insertion/evaluation. That keeps all the locking constrained to when we
are manipulating the VM itself, neatly avoiding the tricky handling of
possible recursive locking during execbuf and elsewhere.
Note that discarding the MRU (currently implemented as a pair of lists,
to avoid scanning the active list for a NONBLOCKING search) is unlikely
to impact upon our efficiency to reclaim VM space (where we think a LRU
model is best) as our current strategy is to use random idle replacement
first before doing a search, and over time the use of softpinned 48b
per-ppGTT is growing (thereby eliminating any need to perform any eviction
searches, in theory at least) with the remaining users being found on
much older devices (gen2-gen6).
v2: Changelog and commentary rewritten to elaborate on the duality of a
single list being both an inactive and active list.
v3: Consolidate bool parameters into a single set of flags; don't
comment on the duality of a single variable being a multiplicity of
bits.

The majority of runtime-pm operations are bounded and scoped within a
function; these are easy to verify that the wakeref are handled
correctly. We can employ the compiler to help us, and reduce the number
of wakerefs tracked when debugging, by passing around cookies provided
by the various rpm_get functions to their rpm_put counterpart. This
makes the pairing explicit, and given the required wakeref cookie the
compiler can verify that we pass an initialised value to the rpm_put
(quite handy for double checking error paths).
For regular builds, the compiler should be able to eliminate the unused
local variables and the program growth should be minimal. Fwiw, it came
out as a net improvement as gcc was able to refactor rpm_get and
rpm_get_if_in_use together,

The wait-for-idle used from within the shrinker_lock_uninterruptible

Ignore trying to shrink from i915 if we fail to acquire the struct_mutex
in the shrinker while performing direct-reclaim. The trade-off being
(much) lower latency for non-i915 clients at an increased risk of being
unable to obtain a page from direct-reclaim without hitting the
oom-notifier. The proviso being that we still keep trying to hard
obtain the lock for kswapd so that we can reap under heavy memory
pressure.
v2: Taint all mutexes taken within the shrinker with the struct_mutex
subclass as an early warning system, and drop I915_SHRINK_ACTIVE from
vmap to reduce the number of dangerous paths. We also have to drop
I915_SHRINK_ACTIVE from oom-notifier to be able to make the same claim
that ACTIVE is only used from outside context, which fits in with a
longer strategy of avoiding stalls due to scanning active during
shrinking.
The danger in using the subclass struct_mutex is that we declare
ourselves more knowledgable than lockdep and deprive ourselves of
automatic coverage. Instead, we require ourselves to mark up any mutex
taken inside the shrinker in order to detect lock-inversion, and if we
miss any we are doomed to a deadlock at the worst possible moment.

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.

The handling of contexts are peculiar. Instead of tieing their vma to
activity, we pin the context. This means that we cannot simply unbind
the context object itself at will (which would normally cause us to wait
for the vma to be idle), but must manually idle the GPU and retire
requests first.
A consequence of this peculiarity is when doing a last desperate attempt
to recover memory. If the memory is tied up inside active context
objects, we will fail to recover any memory simply by trying to unbind
the objects without first doing a wait-for-idle.
A side-effect of removing the call to shrinker_lock_uninterruptible()
from i915_gem_shrinker_oom() was that we removed an unlocked
wait-for-idle, and so lost the "natural" shrinkage of context objects.
By replacing that with a locked wait from inside i915_gem_shrink(), we
not only replace it with the ability to recover all context objects, but
do so for all i915_gem_shrink_all() callers.
v2: Switching requires request allocation, which is not permitted from
inside the shrinker as it only uses ordinary allocations.

A more balanced approach would be to optimistically spin whilst the

By using the same structure for both interruptible and
uninterruptible locking in shrinker code, combined with the
information that mm.interruptible is only being written to, the
code can be greatly simplified.
Also removing the i915_gem_ prefix from the locking functions so
that nobody in their wildest dreams considers exporting them.

Only call synchronize_rcu_expedited after unlocking struct_mutex to
avoid deadlock because the workqueues depend on struct_mutex.
>From original patch by Andrea:
synchronize_rcu/synchronize_sched/synchronize_rcu_expedited() will
hang until its own workqueues are run. The i915 gem workqueues will
wait on the struct_mutex to be released. So we cannot wait for a
quiescent state using those rcu primitives while holding the
struct_mutex or it creates a circular lock dependency resulting in
kernel hangs (which is reproducible but goes undetected by lockdep).

Reintroduce a lock around tiling vs framebuffer creation to prevent
modification of the obj->tiling_and_stride whilst the framebuffer is

changing the tiling whilst submitting rendering.

Restore that so idle userptr objects can be discarded in order

One change further to what was introduced in 1bec9b0bda is
to start considering userptr objects in oom but that should

The shrinker may appear to recurse into obj->mm.lock as the shrinker may
be called from a direct reclaim path whilst handling get_pages. We
filter out recursing on the same obj->mm.lock by inspecting
obj->mm.pages, but we do want to take the lock on a second object in
order to reap their pages. lockdep spots the recursion on the same
lockclass and needs annotation to avoid a false positive. To keep the
two paths distinct, create an enum to indicate which subclass of
obj->mm.lock we are using. This removes the false positive and avoids
masking real bugs.

During shrinking, we walk over the list of objects searching for
victims. Any that are not removed are put back into the global list.
Currently, they are put back in order (at the front) which means they
will be first to be scanned again. If we instead move them to the rear
of the list, we will scan new potential victims on the next pass and
waste less time rescanning unshrinkable objects. Normally the lists are
kept in rough order to shrinking (with object least frequently used at
the start), by moving just scanned objects to the rear we are
acknowledging that they are still in use.

We want to hide the latency of releasing objects and their backing
storage from the submission, so we move the actual free to a worker.
This allows us to switch to struct_mutex freeing of the object in the
next patch.
Furthermore, if we know that the object we are dereferencing remains valid
for the duration of our access, we can forgo the usual synchronisation
barriers and atomic reference counting. To ensure this we defer freeing
an object til after an RCU grace period, such that any lookup of the
object within an RCU read critical section will remain valid until
after we exit that critical section. We also employ this delay for
rate-limiting the serialisation on reallocation - we have to slow down
object creation in order to prevent resource starvation (in particular,
files).

work on error.

Break the allocation of the backing storage away from struct_mutex into
a per-object lock. This allows parallel page allocation, provided we can
do so outside of struct_mutex (i.e. set-domain-ioctl, pwrite, GTT
fault), i.e. before execbuf! The increased cost of the atomic counters
are hidden behind i915_vma_pin() for the typical case of execbuf, i.e.
as the object is typically bound between execbufs, the page_pin_count is
static. The cost will be felt around set-domain and pwrite, but offset
by the improvement from reduced struct_mutex contention.
