8ad305f1a2 drm/i915/gem: Manually dump the debug trace on GEM_BUG_ON
Since igt now defaults to not enabling ftrace-on-oops, we need to
manually invoke GEM_TRACE_DUMP() to see the debug log prior to a
GEM_BUG_ON panicking.

7a73e671ac drm/i915: Taint the kernel on dumping the GEM ftrace buffer
As the ftrace buffer is single shot, once dumped it will not update. As
such, it only provides information for the first bug and all subsequent
bugs are noise. The goal of CI is to have zero bugs, so taint the kernel
causing CI to reboot the machine; fix the bug and move on.

3a7a92aba8 drm/i915/execlists: Force preemption
If the preempted context takes too long to relinquish control, e.g. it
is stuck inside a shader with arbitration disabled, evict that context
with an engine reset. This ensures that preemptions are reasonably
responsive, providing a tighter QoS for the more important context at
the cost of flagging unresponsive contexts more frequently (i.e. instead
of using an ~10s hangcheck, we now evict at ~100ms).  The challenge of
lies in picking a timeout that can be reasonably serviced by HW for
typical workloads, balancing the existing clients against the needs for
responsiveness.

Note that coupled with timeslicing, this will lead to rapid GPU "hang"
detection with multiple active contexts vying for GPU time.

The forced preemption mechanism can be compiled out with

	./scripts/config --set-val DRM_I915_PREEMPT_TIMEOUT 0

2229adc813 drm/i915/execlist: Trim immediate timeslice expiry
We perform timeslicing immediately upon receipt of a request that may be
put into the second ELSP slot. The idea behind this was that since we
didn't install the timer if the second ELSP slot was empty, we would not
have any idea of how long ELSP[0] had been running and so giving the
newcomer a chance on the GPU was fair. However, this causes us extra
busy work that we may be able to avoid if we wait a jiffie for the first
timeslice as normal.

3c00660db1 drm/i915/execlists: Assert tasklet is locked for process_csb()
We rely on only the tasklet being allowed to call into process_csb(), so
assert that is locked when we do. As the tasklet uses a simple bitlock,
there is no strong lockdep checking so we must make do with a plain
assertion that the tasklet is running and assume that we are the
tasklet!

v2: Fixup intel_gt_sanitize() to prepare each engine for the reset so
that the locks are marked as held during the reset
v3: Check for existent function pointers for very early sanitisation.

6d06779e86 drm/i915: Load balancing across a virtual engine
Having allowed the user to define a set of engines that they will want
to only use, we go one step further and allow them to bind those engines
into a single virtual instance. Submitting a batch to the virtual engine
will then forward it to any one of the set in a manner as best to
distribute load.  The virtual engine has a single timeline across all
engines (it operates as a single queue), so it is not able to concurrently
run batches across multiple engines by itself; that is left up to the user
to submit multiple concurrent batches to multiple queues. Multiple users
will be load balanced across the system.

The mechanism used for load balancing in this patch is a late greedy
balancer. When a request is ready for execution, it is added to each
engine's queue, and when an engine is ready for its next request it
claims it from the virtual engine. The first engine to do so, wins, i.e.
the request is executed at the earliest opportunity (idle moment) in the
system.

As not all HW is created equal, the user is still able to skip the
virtual engine and execute the batch on a specific engine, all within the
same queue. It will then be executed in order on the correct engine,
with execution on other virtual engines being moved away due to the load
detection.

A couple of areas for potential improvement left!

- The virtual engine always take priority over equal-priority tasks.
Mostly broken up by applying FQ_CODEL rules for prioritising new clients,
and hopefully the virtual and real engines are not then congested (i.e.
all work is via virtual engines, or all work is to the real engine).

- We require the breadcrumb irq around every virtual engine request. For
normal engines, we eliminate the need for the slow round trip via
interrupt by using the submit fence and queueing in order. For virtual
engines, we have to allow any job to transfer to a new ring, and cannot
coalesce the submissions, so require the completion fence instead,
forcing the persistent use of interrupts.

- We only drip feed single requests through each virtual engine and onto
the physical engines, even if there was enough work to fill all ELSP,
leaving small stalls with an idle CS event at the end of every request.
Could we be greedy and fill both slots? Being lazy is virtuous for load
distribution on less-than-full workloads though.

Other areas of improvement are more general, such as reducing lock
contention, reducing dispatch overhead, looking at direct submission
rather than bouncing around tasklets etc.

sseu: Lift the restriction to allow sseu to be reconfigured on virtual
engines composed of RENDER_CLASS (rcs).

v2: macroize check_user_mbz()
v3: Cancel virtual engines on wedging
v4: Commence commenting
v5: Replace 64b sibling_mask with a list of class:instance
v6: Drop the one-element array in the uabi
v7: Assert it is an virtual engine in to_virtual_engine()
v8: Skip over holes in [class][inst] so we can selftest with (vcs0, vcs2)

79ffac8599 drm/i915: Invert the GEM wakeref hierarchy
In the current scheme, on submitting a request we take a single global
GEM wakeref, which trickles down to wake up all GT power domains. This
is undesirable as we would like to be able to localise our power
management to the available power domains and to remove the global GEM
operations from the heart of the driver. (The intent there is to push
global GEM decisions to the boundary as used by the GEM user interface.)

Now during request construction, each request is responsible via its
logical context to acquire a wakeref on each power domain it intends to
utilize. Currently, each request takes a wakeref on the engine(s) and
the engines themselves take a chipset wakeref. This gives us a
transition on each engine which we can extend if we want to insert more
powermangement control (such as soft rc6). The global GEM operations
that currently require a struct_mutex are reduced to listening to pm
events from the chipset GT wakeref. As we reduce the struct_mutex
requirement, these listeners should evaporate.

Perhaps the biggest immediate change is that this removes the
struct_mutex requirement around GT power management, allowing us greater
flexibility in request construction. Another important knock-on effect,
is that by tracking engine usage, we can insert a switch back to the
kernel context on that engine immediately, avoiding any extra delay or
inserting global synchronisation barriers. This makes tracking when an
engine and its associated contexts are idle much easier -- important for
when we forgo our assumed execution ordering and need idle barriers to
unpin used contexts. In the process, it means we remove a large chunk of
code whose only purpose was to switch back to the kernel context.

bbb8a9d7e0 drm/i915: GEM_WARN_ON considered harmful
GEM_WARN_ON currently has dangerous semantics where it is completely
compiled out on !GEM_DEBUG builds. This can leave users who expect it to
be more like a WARN_ON, just without a warning in non-debug builds, in
complete ignorance.

Another gotcha with it is that it cannot be used as a statement. Which is
again different from a standard kernel WARN_ON.

This patch fixes both problems by making it behave as one would expect.

It can now be used both as an expression and as statement, and also the
condition evaluates properly in all builds - code under the conditional
will therefore not unexpectedly disappear.

To satisfy call sites which really want the code under the conditional to
completely disappear, we add GEM_DEBUG_WARN_ON and convert some of the
callers to it. This one can also be used as both expression and statement.

>From the above it follows GEM_DEBUG_WARN_ON should be used in situations
where we are certain the condition will be hit during development, but at
a place in code where error can be handled to the benefit of not crashing
the machine.

GEM_WARN_ON on the other hand should be used where condition may happen in
production and we just want to distinguish the level of debugging output
emitted between the production and debug build.

v2:
 * Dropped BUG_ON hunk.

9e4fa01221 drm/i915/execlists: Flush tasklet directly from reset-finish
On finishing the reset, the intention is to restart the GPU before we
relinquish the forcewake taken to handle the reset - the goal being the
GPU reloads a context before it is allowed to sleep. For this purpose,
we used tasklet_flush() which although it accomplished the goal of
restarting the GPU, carried with it a sting in its tail: it cleared the
TASKLET_STATE_SCHED bit. This meant that if another CPU queued a new
request to this engine, we would clear the flag and later attempt to
requeue the tasklet on the local CPU, breaking the per-cpu softirq
lists.

Remove the dangerous tasklet_kill() and just run the tasklet func
directly as we know it is safe to do so (the tasklets are internally
locked to allow mixed usage from direct submission).

9512f985c3 drm/i915/execlists: Direct submission of new requests (avoid tasklet/ksoftirqd)
Back in commit 27af5eea54 ("drm/i915: Move execlists irq handler to a
bottom half"), we came to the conclusion that running our CSB processing
and ELSP submission from inside the irq handler was a bad idea. A really
bad idea as we could impose nearly 1s latency on other users of the
system, on average! Deferring our work to a tasklet allowed us to do the
processing with irqs enabled, reducing the impact to an average of about
50us.

We have since eradicated the use of forcewaked mmio from inside the CSB
processing and ELSP submission, bringing the impact down to around 5us
(on Kabylake); an order of magnitude better than our measurements 2
years ago on Broadwell and only about 2x worse on average than the
gem_syslatency on an unladen system.

In this iteration of the tasklet-vs-direct submission debate, we seek a
compromise where by we submit new requests immediately to the HW but
defer processing the CS interrupt onto a tasklet. We gain the advantage
of low-latency and ksoftirqd avoidance when waking up the HW, while
avoiding the system-wide starvation of our CS irq-storms.

Comparing the impact on the maximum latency observed (that is the time
stolen from an RT process) over a 120s interval, repeated several times
(using gem_syslatency, similar to RT's cyclictest) while the system is
fully laden with i915 nops, we see that direct submission an actually
improve the worse case.

However, since the mean latency corresponds to the amount of irqsoff
processing we have to do for a CS interrupt, we only need to speed that
up to benefit not just system latency but our own throughput.

v2: Remember to defer submissions when under reset.
v4: Only use direct submission for new requests
v5: Be aware that with mixing direct tasklet evaluation and deferred
tasklets, we may end up idling before running the deferred tasklet.
v6: Remove the redudant likely() from tasklet_is_enabled(), restrict the
annotation to reset_in_progress().
v7: Take the full timeline.lock when enabling perf_pmu stats as the
tasklet is no longer a valid guard. A consequence is that the stats are
now only valid for engines also using the timeline.lock to process
state.

fe25f30483 drm/i915/execlists: Wait for ELSP submission on restart
After a reset, we will ensure that there is at least one request
submitted to HW to ensure that a context is loaded for powersaving.
Let's wait for this submission via a tasklet to complete before we drop
our forcewake, ensuring the system is ready for rc6 before we let it
possibly sleep.

09a4c02e58 drm/i915: Look for an active kernel context before switching
We were not very carefully checking to see if an older request on the
engine was an earlier switch-to-kernel-context before deciding to emit a
new switch. The end result would be that we could get into a permanent
loop of trying to emit a new request to perform the switch simply to
flush the existing switch.

What we need is a means of tracking the completion of each timeline
versus the kernel context, that is to detect if a more recent request
has been submitted that would result in a switch away from the kernel
context. To realise this, we need only to look in our syncmap on the
kernel context and check that we have synchronized against all active
rings.

v2: Since all ringbuffer clients currently share the same timeline, we do
have to use the gem_context to distinguish clients.

As a bonus, include all the tracing used to debug the death inside
suspend.

v3: Test, test, test. Construct a selftest to exercise and assert the
expected behaviour that multiple switch-to-contexts do not emit
redundant requests.

When setting up reset, we may need to recursively prepare an engine. In
which case we should only synchronously flush the tasklets on the outer
most call, the inner calls will then be inside an atomic section where
the tasklet will never be run (and so the sync will never complete).

e4d2006f8f drm/i915: Split out parking from the idle worker for reuse
We will want to park GEM before disengaging the drive^W^W^W unwedging.
Since we already do the work for idling, expose the guts as a new
function that we can then reuse.

v2: Just skip if already parked; makes it more forgiving to use by
future callers.
v3: Extract mark_busy, rename it to i915_gem_unpark and place it next to
i915_gem_park so that we can evaluate it for symmetry more easily.
Calling GEM from inside i915_request looks to be a bit of a layering
violation, for the moment I am imaging them as being notify_cb.

Track the latest fence waited upon on each context, and only add a new
asynchronous wait if the new fence is more recent than the recorded

in case of allocation failure -- it just means we may emit more awaits

ae9a043b0c drm/i915: Rename conditional GEM execution macros
After a brief discussion, we settled on a naming convention for the
conditional GEM debugging data that should be clearer to the casual
user: GEM_DEBUG

eca56a3511 drm/i915: Mark the end of intel_ring_begin() and check in intel_ring_advance()
It is required that the caller declare the exact number of dwords they
wish to write into the ring. This is required for two reasons, we need
to allocate sufficient space for the entire command packet and we need
to be sure that the contents are completely written to avoid executing
stale data. The current interface requires for any bug to be caught in
review, the reader has to carefully count the number of
intel_ring_emit() between intel_ring_begin() and intel_ring_advance().
If we record the end of the packet of each intel_ring_begin() we can
also have CI check for us.

17cfde60a1 drm/i915: introduce GEM_WARN_ON
In a similar spirit to GEM_BUG_ON we now also have GEM_WARN_ON, with the
simple goal of expressing warnings which are truly insane, and so are
only really useful for CI where we have some abusive tests.

v2:
  - use BUILD_BUG_ON_INVALID for !DEBUG_GEM
  - clarify commit message

4cfa20c834 drm/i915: allow GEM_BUG_ON expr checking with !DEBUG_GEM
Use BUILD_BUG_ON_INVALID(expr) in GEM_BUG_ON when building without
DEBUG_GEM. This means the compiler can now check the validity of expr
without generating any code, in turn preventing us from inadvertently
breaking the build when DEBUG_GEM is not enabled.

71d5895aac drm/i915: avoid harmless empty-body warning
The newly added assert_kernel_context_is_current introduces a warning
when built with W=1:

drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c: In function ‘assert_kernel_context_is_current’:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c:4417:63: error: suggest braces around empty body in an ‘else’ statement [-Werror=empty-body]

Changing the GEM_BUG_ON() macro from an empty definition to "do { } while (0)"
makes the macro more robust to use and avoids the warning.

73cb97010d drm/i915: Combine seqno + tracking into a global timeline struct
Our timelines are more than just a seqno. They also provide an ordered
list of requests to be executed. Due to the restriction of handling
individual address spaces, we are limited to a timeline per address
space but we use a fence context per engine within.

Our first step to introducing independent timelines per context (i.e. to
allow each context to have a queue of requests to execute that have a
defined set of dependencies on other requests) is to provide a timeline
abstraction for the global execution queue.

d501b1d2b1 drm/i915: Add GEM debugging Kconfig option
Currently there is a #define to enable extra BUG_ON for debugging
requests and associated activities. I want to expand its use to cover
all of GEM internals (so that we can saturate the code with asserts).
We can add a Kconfig option to make it easier to enable - with the usual
caveats of not enabling unless explicitly requested.
