6922528a04 drm/i915: Enable resource streamer on Execlists
GEN8 and above uses Execlists by default instead of the legacy
ringbuffer for batch execution. This patch enables the resource
streamer bits when required.

Patch is based on the initial work by Minu Mathai <minu.mathai@intel.com>
This version also adds the required bits to enable GEN8 Resource
Streamer context save and restore for Execlists.

ccd98fe499 drm/i915: Add *_ring_begin() to request allocation
Now that the *_ring_begin() functions no longer call the request allocation
code, it is finally safe for the request allocation code to call *_ring_begin().
This is important to guarantee that the space reserved for the subsequent
i915_add_request() call does actually get reserved.

v2: Renamed functions according to review feedback (Tomas Elf).

5f19e2bffa drm/i915: Merged the many do_execbuf() parameters into a structure
The do_execbuf() function takes quite a few parameters. The actual set of
parameters is going to change with the conversion to passing requests around.
Further, it is due to grow massively with the arrival of the GPU scheduler.

This patch simplifies the prototype by passing a parameter structure instead.
Changing the parameter set in the future is then simply a matter of
adding/removing items to the structure.

Note that the structure does not contain absolutely everything that is passed
in. This is because the intention is to use this structure more extensively
later in this patch series and more especially in the GPU scheduler that is
coming soon. The latter requires hanging on to the structure as the final
hardware submission can be delayed until long after the execbuf IOCTL has
returned to user land. Thus it is unsafe to put anything in the structure that
is local to the IOCTL call itself - such as the 'args' parameter. All entries
must be copies of data or pointers to structures that are reference counted in
some way and guaranteed to exist for the duration of the batch buffer's life.

v2: Rebased to newer tree and updated for changes to the command parser.
Specifically, a code shuffle has required saving the batch start address in the
params structure.

40e895ceca drm/i915: Set context in request from creation even in legacy mode
In execlist mode, the context object pointer is written in to the request
structure (and reference counted) at the point of request creation. In legacy
mode, this only happens inside i915_add_request().

This patch updates the legacy code path to match the execlist version. This
allows all the intermediate code between request creation and request submission
to get at the context object given only a request structure. Thus negating the
need to pass context pointers here, there and everywhere.

v2: Moved the context reference so it does not need to be undone if the
get_seqno() fails.

v3: Fixed execlist mode always hitting a warning about invalid last_contexts
(which don't exist in execlist mode).

v4: Updated for new i915_gem_request_alloc() scheme.

8e004efc16 drm/i915: Rename 'flags' to 'dispatch_flags' for better code reading
There is a flags word that is passed through the execbuffer code path all the
way from initial decoding of the user parameters down to the very final dispatch
buffer call. It is simply called 'flags'. Unfortuantely, there are many other
flags words floating around in the same blocks of code. Even more once the GPU
scheduler arrives.

This patch makes it more obvious exactly which flags word is which by renaming
'flags' to 'dispatch_flags'. Note that the bit definitions for this flags word
already have an 'I915_DISPATCH_' prefix on them and so are not quite so
ambiguous.

3e5b6f05a2 drm/i915: Reset logical ring contexts' head and tail during GPU reset
Work was getting left behind in LRC contexts during reset.  This causes a hang
if the GPU is reset when HEAD==TAIL because the context's ringbuffer head and
tail don't get reset and retiring a request doesn't alter them, so the ring
still appears full.

Added a function intel_lr_context_reset() to reset head and tail on a LRC and
its ringbuffer.

Call intel_lr_context_reset() for each context in i915_gem_context_reset() when
in execlists mode.

dcb4c12a68 drm/i915/bdw: Pin the context backing objects to GGTT on-demand
Up until now, we have pinned every logical ring context backing object
during creation, and left it pinned until destruction. This made my life
easier, but it's a harmful thing to do, because we cause fragmentation
of the GGTT (and, eventually, we would run out of space).

This patch makes the pinning on-demand: the backing objects of the two
contexts that are written to the ELSP are pinned right before submission
and unpinned once the hardware is done with them. The only context that
is still pinned regardless is the global default one, so that the HWS can
still be accessed in the same way (ring->status_page).

v2: In the early version of this patch, we were pinning the context as
we put it into the ELSP: on the one hand, this is very efficient because
only a maximum two contexts are pinned at any given time, but on the other
hand, we cannot really pin in interrupt time :(

v3: Use a mutex rather than atomic_t to protect pin count to avoid races.
Do not unpin default context in free_request.

v4: Break out pin and unpin into functions.  Fix style problems reported
by checkpatch

v5: Remove unpin_lock as all pinning and unpinning is done with the struct
mutex already locked.  Add WARN_ONs to make sure this is the case in future.

e1fee72c2e drm/i915/bdw: Avoid non-lite-restore preemptions
In the current Execlists feeding mechanism, full preemption is not
supported yet: only lite-restores are allowed (this is: the GPU
simply samples a new tail pointer for the context currently in
execution).

But we have identified an scenario in which a full preemption occurs:
1) We submit two contexts for execution (A & B).
2) The GPU finishes with the first one (A), switches to the second one
(B) and informs us.
3) We submit B again (hoping to cause a lite restore) together with C,
but in the time we spend writing to the ELSP, the GPU finishes B.
4) The GPU start executing B again (since we told it so).
5) We receive a B finished interrupt and, mistakenly, we submit C (again)
and D, causing a full preemption of B.

The race is avoided by keeping track of how many times a context has been
submitted to the hardware and by better discriminating the received context
switch interrupts: in the example, when we have submitted B twice, we won´t
submit C and D as soon as we receive the notification that B is completed
because we were expecting to get a LITE_RESTORE and we didn´t, so we know a
second completion will be received shortly.

Without this explicit checking, somehow, the batch buffer execution order
gets messed with. This can be verified with the IGT test I sent together with
the series. I don´t know the exact mechanism by which the pre-emption messes
with the execution order but, since other people is working on the Scheduler
+ Preemption on Execlists, I didn´t try to fix it. In these series, only Lite
Restores are supported (other kind of preemptions WARN).

v2: elsp_submitted belongs in the new intel_ctx_submit_request. Several
rebase changes.

v3: Clarify how the race is avoided, as requested by Daniel.

context switch interrupt. We only remove work from the execlist queue
after a context status buffer reports that it has completed and we only

context completes (unless no contexts are queued, which means the GPU is
free).

We canot call intel_runtime_pm_get() in an interrupt (or with a spinlock
grabbed, FWIW), because it might sleep, which is not a nice thing to do.
Instead, do the runtime_pm get/put together with the create/destroy request,

84b790f80e drm/i915/bdw: Implement context switching (somewhat)
A context switch occurs by submitting a context descriptor to the
ExecList Submission Port. Given that we can now initialize a context,
it's possible to begin implementing the context switch by creating the
descriptor and submitting it to ELSP (actually two, since the ELSP
has two ports).

The context object must be mapped in the GGTT, which means it must exist
in the 0-4GB graphics VA range.

Signed-off-by: Ben Widawsky <ben@bwidawsk.net>

v2: This code has changed quite a lot in various rebases. Of particular
importance is that now we use the globally unique Submission ID to send
to the hardware. Also, context pages are now pinned unconditionally to
GGTT, so there is no need to bind them.

v3: Use LRCA[31:12] as hwCtxId[19:0]. This guarantees that the HW context
ID we submit to the ELSP is globally unique and != 0 (Bspec requirements
of the software use-only bits of the Context ID in the Context Descriptor
Format) without the hassle of the previous submission Id construction.
Also, re-add the ELSP porting read (it was dropped somewhere during the
rebases).

v4:
- Squash with "drm/i915/bdw: Add forcewake lock around ELSP writes" (BSPEC
  says: "SW must set Force Wakeup bit to prevent GT from entering C6 while
  ELSP writes are in progress") as noted by Thomas Daniel
  (thomas.daniel@intel.com).
- Rename functions and use an execlists/intel_execlists_ namespace.
- The BUG_ON only checked that the LRCA was <32 bits, but it didn't make
  sure that it was properly aligned. Spotted by Alistair Mcaulay
  <alistair.mcaulay@intel.com>.

v5:
- Improved source code comments as suggested by Chris Wilson.
- No need to abstract submit_ctx away, as pointed by Brad Volkin.

48e29f5535 drm/i915/bdw: Emission of requests with logical rings
On a previous iteration of this patch, I created an Execlists
version of __i915_add_request and asbtracted it away as a
vfunc. Daniel Vetter wondered then why that was needed:

"with the clean split in command submission I expect every
function to know wether it'll submit to an lrc (everything in
intel_lrc.c) or wether it'll submit to a legacy ring (existing
code), so I don't see a need for an add_request vfunc."

The honest, hairy truth is that this patch is the glue keeping
the whole logical ring puzzle together:

- i915_add_request is used by intel_ring_idle, which in turn is
  used by i915_gpu_idle, which in turn is used in several places
  inside the eviction and gtt codes.
- Also, it is used by i915_gem_check_olr, which is littered all
  over i915_gem.c
- ...

If I were to duplicate all the code that directly or indirectly
uses __i915_add_request, I'll end up creating a separate driver.

To show the differences between the existing legacy version and
the new Execlists one, this time I have special-cased
__i915_add_request instead of adding an add_request vfunc. I
hope this helps to untangle this Gordian knot.

Well, new-ish: if all this code looks familiar, that's because it's
a clone of the existing submission mechanism (with some modifications
here and there to adapt it to LRCs and Execlists).

And why did we do this instead of reusing code, one might wonder?
Well, there are some fears that the differences are big enough that
they will end up breaking all platforms.

Also, Execlists offer several advantages, like control over when the
GPU is done with a given workload, that can help simplify the
submission mechanism, no doubt. I am interested in getting Execlists
to work first and foremost, but in the future this parallel submission
mechanism will help us to fine tune the mechanism without affecting
old gens.

v2: Pass the ringbuffer only (whenever possible).

454afebde8 drm/i915/bdw: Skeleton for the new logical rings submission path
Execlists are indeed a brave new world with respect to workload
submission to the GPU.

In previous version of these series, I have tried to impact the
legacy ringbuffer submission path as little as possible (mostly,
passing the context around and using the correct ringbuffer when I
needed one) but Daniel is afraid (probably with a reason) that
these changes and, especially, future ones, will end up breaking
older gens.

This commit and some others coming next will try to limit the
damage by creating an alternative path for workload submission.
The first step is here: laying out a new ring init/fini.

ede7d42bae drm/i915/bdw: Initialization for Logical Ring Contexts
For the moment this is just a placeholder, but it shows one of the
main differences between the good ol' HW contexts and the shiny
new Logical Ring Contexts: LR contexts allocate  and free their
own backing objects. Another difference is that the allocation is
deferred (as the create function name suggests), but that does not
happen in this patch yet, because for the moment we are only dealing
with the default context.

Early in the series we had our own gen8_gem_context_init/fini
functions, but the truth is they now look almost the same as the
legacy hw context init/fini functions. We can always split them
later if this ceases to be the case.

Also, we do not fall back to legacy ringbuffers when logical ring
context initialization fails (not very likely to happen and, even
if it does, hw contexts would probably fail as well).

v2: Daniel says "explain, do not showcase".

127f100369 drm/i915/bdw: Macro for LRCs and module option for Execlists
GEN8 brings an expansion of the HW contexts: "Logical Ring Contexts".
These expanded contexts enable a number of new abilities, especially
"Execlists".

The macro is defined to off until we have things in place to hope to
work.

v2: Rename "advanced contexts" to the more correct "logical ring
contexts".

v3: Add a module parameter to enable execlists. Execlist are relatively
new, and so it'd be wise to be able to switch back to ring submission
to debug subtle problems that will inevitably arise.

v4: Add an intel_enable_execlists function.

v5: Sanitize early, as suggested by Daniel. Remove lrc_enabled.

b20385f1f8 drm/i915/bdw: New source and header file for LRs, LRCs and Execlists
Some legacy HW context code assumptions don't make sense for this new
submission method, so we will place this stuff in a separate file.

Note for reviewers: I've carefully considered the best name for this file
and this was my best option (other possibilities were intel_lr_context.c
or intel_execlist.c). I am open to a certain bikeshedding on this matter,
anyway.

And some point in time, it would be a good idea to split intel_lrc.c/.h
even further, but for the moment just shove everything together.

v2: Change to intel_lrc.c

v3: Squash together with the header file addition
