mainlining shenanigans
DGFX platforms has lmem and cpu can access the lmem objects
via mmap and i915 internal i915_gem_object_pin_map() for
i915 own usages. Both of these methods has pre-requisite
requirement to keep GFX PCI endpoint in D0 for a supported
iomem transaction over PCI link. (Refer PCIe specs 5.3.1.4.1)
Both DG1/DG2 have a known hardware bug that violates the PCIe specs
and support the iomem read write transaction over PCIe bus despite
endpoint is D3 state.
Due to above H/W bug, we had never observed any issue with i915 runtime
PM versus lmem access.
But this issue becomes visible when PCIe gfx endpoint's upstream
bridge enters to D3, at this point any lmem read/write access will be
returned as unsupported request. But again this issue is not observed
on every platform because it has been observed on few host machines
DG1/DG2 endpoint's upstream bridge does not bind with pcieport driver.
which really disables the PCIe power savings and leaves the bridge
at D0 state.
We need a unique interface to read/write from lmem with runtime PM
wakeref protection something similar to intel_uncore_{read, write},
keep autosuspend control to 'on' on all discrete platforms,
until we have a unique interface to read/write from lmem.
This just change the default autosuspend setting of i915 on dGPU,
user can still change it to 'auto'.
v2:
- Modified the commit message and subject with more information.
- Changed the Fixes tag to LMEM support commit. [Joonas]
- Changed !HAS_LMEM() Cond to !IS_DGFX(). [Rodrigo]

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
