This is just the minimal patch to disable all this code so that we can
do decent amounts of QA before we rip it all out.
The complicating thing is that we need to flush the gpu caches after
the batchbuffer is emitted. Which is past the point of no return where
execbuffer can't fail any more (otherwise we risk submitting the same
batch multiple times).
Hence we need to add a flag to track whether any caches associated
with that ring are dirty. And emit the flush in add_request if that's
the case.
Note that this has a quite a few behaviour changes:
- Caches get flushed/invalidated unconditionally.
- Invalidation now happens after potential inter-ring sync.
I've bantered around a bit with Chris on irc whether this fixes
anything, and it might or might not. The only thing clear is that with
these changes it's much easier to reason about correctness.
Also rip out a lone get_next_request_seqno in the execbuffer
retire_commands function. I've dug around and I couldn't figure out
why that is still there, with the outstanding lazy request stuff it
shouldn't be necessary.
v2: Chris Wilson complained that I also invalidate the read caches
when flushing after a batchbuffer. Now optimized.
v3: Added some comments to explain the new flushing behaviour.

[DevSNB] If Flush TLB invalidation Mode is enabled it's the driver's
responsibility to invalidate the TLBs at least once after the previous
context switch after any GTT mappings changed (including new GTT
entries). This can be done by a pipelined PIPE_CONTROL with TLB inv bit
set immediately before MI_SET_CONTEXT.
On GEN7 the invalidation mode is explicitly set, but this appears to be
lacking for GEN6. Since I don't know the history on this, I've decided
to dynamically read the value at ring init time, and use that value
throughout.

Implement the context switch code as well as the interfaces to do the
context switch. This patch also doesn't match 1:1 with the RFC patches.
The main difference is that from Daniel's responses the last context
object is now stored instead of the last context. This aids in allows us
to free the context data structure, and context object independently.
There is room for optimization: this code will pin the context object
until the next context is active. The optimal way to do it is to
actually pin the object, move it to the active list, do the context
switch, and then unpin it. This allows the eviction code to actually
evict the context object if needed.
The context switch code is missing workarounds, they will be implemented
in future patches.

Invent an abstraction for a hw context which is passed around through
the core functions. The main bit a hw context holds is the buffer object
which backs the context. The rest of the members are just helper
functions. Specifically the ring member, which could likely go away if
we decide to never implement whatever other hw context support exists.
Of note here is the introduction of the 64k alignment constraint for the
BO. If contexts become heavily used, we should consider tweaking this
down to 4k. Until the contexts are merged and tested a bit though, I
think 64k is a nice start (based on docs).
Since we don't yet switch contexts, there is really not much complexity
here. Creation/destruction works pretty much as one would expect. An idr
is used to generate the context id numbers which are unique per file
descriptor.

In many places we wish to iterate over the rings associated with the
GPU, so refactor them to use a common macro.
Along the way, there are a few code removals that should be side-effect

such as error-state.
Note that this slightly changes the semantics in the hangcheck code:
We now always cycle through all enabled rings instead of

By recording the location of every request in the ringbuffer, we know
that in order to retire the request the GPU must have finished reading
it and so the GPU head is now beyond the tail of the request. We can
therefore provide a conservative estimate of where the GPU is reading
from in order to avoid having to read back the ring buffer registers
when polling for space upon starting a new write into the ringbuffer.
A secondary effect is that this allows us to convert
intel_ring_buffer_wait() to use i915_wait_request() and so consolidate
upon the single function to handle the complicated task of waiting upon
the GPU. A necessary precaution is that we need to make that wait
uninterruptible to match the existing conditions as all the callers of
intel_ring_begin() have not been audited to handle ERESTARTSYS
correctly.
By using a conservative estimate for the head, and always processing all
outstanding requests first, we prevent a race condition between using
the estimate and direct reads of I915_RING_HEAD which could result in
the value of the head going backwards, and the tail overflowing once
again. We are also careful to mark any request that we skip over in
order to free space in ring as consumed which provides a
self-consistency check.
Given sufficient abuse, such as a set of unthrottled GPU bound
cairo-traces, avoiding the use of I915_RING_HEAD gives a 10-20% boost on
Sandy Bridge (i5-2520m):
firefox-paintball 18927ms -> 15646ms: 1.21x speedup
firefox-fishtank 12563ms -> 11278ms: 1.11x speedup
which is a mild consolation for the performance those traces achieved from
exploiting the buggy autoreported head.
v2: Add a few more comments and make request->tail a conservative
estimate as suggested by Daniel Vetter.

Whilst the GT is powered down (rc6), writes to MMADDR are placed in a
FIFO by the System Agent. This is a limited resource, only 64 entries, of
which 20 are reserved for Display and PCH writes, and so we must take
care not to queue up too many writes. To avoid this, there is counter
which we can poll to ensure there are sufficient free entries in the
fifo.
"Issuing a write to a full FIFO is not supported; at worst it could

During suspend, Linus found that his machine would hang for 3 seconds,
and identified that intel_ring_buffer_wait() was the culprit:
"Because from looking at the code, I get the notion that
"intel_read_status_page()" may not be exact. But what happens if that
inexact value matches our cached ring->actual_head, so we never even
try to read the exact case? Does it _stay_ inexact for arbitrarily
long times? If so, we might wait for the ring to empty forever (well,
until the timeout - the behavior I see), even though the ring really
_is_ empty."
As the reported HEAD position is only updated every time it crosses a
64k boundary, whilst draining the ring it is indeed likely to remain one
value. If that value matches the last known HEAD position, we never read
the true value from the register and so trigger a timeout.
