Replace the global device seqno with one for each engine, and account
for in-flight seqno on each separately. This is consistent with
dma-fence as each timeline has separate fence-contexts for each engine
and a seqno is only ordered within a fence-context (i.e. seqno do not
need to be ordered wrt to other engines, just ordered within a single
engine). This is required to enable request rewinding for preemption on
individual engines (we have to rewind the global seqno to avoid
overflow, and we do not have to rewind all engines just to preempt one.)
v2: Rename active_seqno to inflight_seqnos to more clearly indicate that
it is a counter and not equivalent to the existing seqno. Update

If an interrupt has been posted, and we were spinning on the active

it will not see its advance in the immediate future and should call into
the irq-seqno barrier. We can stop spinning at this point, and leave the
difficulty of handling the coherency to the caller.

This removes the usage of intel_ring_emit in favour of
directly writing to the ring buffer.
intel_ring_emit was preventing the compiler for optimising
fetch and increment of the current ring buffer pointer and
therefore generating very verbose code for every write.
It had no useful purpose since all ringbuffer operations
are started and ended with intel_ring_begin and
intel_ring_advance respectively, with no bail out in the
middle possible, so it is fine to increment the tail in
intel_ring_begin and let the code manage the pointer
itself.
Useless instruction removal amounts to approximately
two and half kilobytes of saved text on my build.
Not sure if this has any measurable performance
implications but executing a ton of useless instructions
on fast paths cannot be good.
v2:
* Change return from intel_ring_begin to error pointer by
popular demand.
* Move tail increment to intel_ring_advance to enable some
error checking.

The requests conversion introduced a nasty bug where we could generate a
new request in the middle of constructing a request if we needed to idle
the system in order to evict space for a context. The request to idle
would be executed (and waited upon) before the current one, creating a
minor havoc in the seqno accounting, as we will consider the current
request to already be completed (prior to deferred seqno assignment) but
ring->last_retired_head would have been updated and still could allow
us to overwrite the current request before execution.
We also employed two different mechanisms to track the active context
until it was switched out. The legacy method allowed for waiting upon an
active context (it could forcibly evict any vma, including context's),
but the execlists method took a step backwards by pinning the vma for
the entire active lifespan of the context (the only way to evict was to
idle the entire GPU, not individual contexts). However, to circumvent
the tricky issue of locking (i.e. we cannot take struct_mutex at the
time of i915_gem_request_submit(), where we would want to move the
previous context onto the active tracker and unpin it), we take the
execlists approach and keep the contexts pinned until retirement.
The benefit of the execlists approach, more important for execlists than
legacy, was the reduction in work in pinning the context for each
request - as the context was kept pinned until idle, it could short
circuit the pinning for all active contexts.
We introduce new engine vfuncs to pin and unpin the context
respectively. The context is pinned at the start of the request, and
only unpinned when the following request is retired (this ensures that
the context is idle and coherent in main memory before we unpin it). We
move the engine->last_context tracking into the retirement itself
(rather than during request submission) in order to allow the submission
to be reordered or unwound without undue difficultly.
And finally an ulterior motive for unifying context handling was to
prepare for mock requests.
v2: Rename to last_retired_context, split out legacy_context tracking
for MI_SET_CONTEXT.

i915_gem_retire_requests() is the sole path on which we can transition
to gt.active_requests == 0. A consequence of this is that we would skip

This is fallout from changing the routine from considering active_engines

Track the priority of each request and use it to determine the order in
which we submit requests to the hardware via execlists.
The priority of the request is determined by the user (eventually via
the context) but may be overridden at any time by the driver. When we set
the priority of the request, we bump the priority of all of its
dependencies to match - so that a high priority drawing operation is not
stuck behind a background task.
When the request is ready to execute (i.e. we have signaled the submit
fence following completion of all its dependencies, including third
party fences), we put the request into a priority sorted rbtree to be
submitted to the hardware. If the request is higher priority than all
pending requests, it will be submitted on the next context-switch
interrupt as soon as the hardware has completed the current request. We
do not currently preempt any current execution to immediately run a very
high priority request, at least not yet.
One more limitation, is that this is first implementation is for
execlists only so currently limited to gen8/gen9.

The scheduler needs to know the dependencies of each request for the
lifetime of the request, as it may choose to reschedule the requests at
any time and must ensure the dependency tree is not broken. This is in
additional to using the fence to only allow execution after all
dependencies have been completed.
One option was to extend the fence to support the bidirectional
dependency tracking required by the scheduler. However the mismatch in
lifetimes between the submit fence and the request essentially meant
that we had to build a completely separate struct (and we could not
simply reuse the existing waitqueue in the fence for one half of the
dependency tracking). The extra dependency tracking simply did not mesh
well with the fence, and keeping it separate both keeps the fence
implementation simpler and allows us to extend the dependency tracking
into a priority tree (whilst maintaining support for reordering the
tree).

Defer the transfer from the client's timeline onto the execution
timeline from the point of readiness to the point of actual submission.
For example, in execlists, a request is finally submitted to hardware
when the hardware is ready, and only put onto the hardware queue when
the request is ready. By deferring the transfer, we ensure that the
timeline is maintained in retirement order if we decide to queue the
requests onto the hardware in a different order than fifo.

In order to support deferred scheduling, we need to differentiate
between when the request is ready to run (i.e. the submit fence is
signaled) and when the request is actually run (a new execute fence).
This is typically split between the request itself wanting to wait upon
others (for which we use the submit fence) and the CPU wanting to wait
upon the request, for which we use the execute fence to be sure the
hardware is ready to signal completion.

the hardware execution timeline.
We should only ever be locking the user timeline and the execution

When we need to reset the global seqno on wraparound, we have to wait
until the current rbtrees are drained (or otherwise the next waiter will
be out of sequence). The current mechanism to kick and spin until
complete, may exit too early as it would break if the target thread was
currently running. Instead, we must wake up the threads, but keep
spinning until the trees have been deleted.
In order to appease Tvrtko, busy spin rather than yield().

Atm, in case an idle work handler is already pending but haven't yet
started to run, retiring a new request will not extend the active period
as required, rather simply leaves the pending idle work to be scheduled
at the original expiration time. This may lead to idling the GPU too
early. Fix this by using the delayed-work scheduler alternative which
makes sure the handler's expiration time is extended in this case.

A restriction on our global seqno is that they cannot wrap, and that we
cannot use the value 0. This allows us to detect when a request has not
yet been submitted, its global seqno is still 0, and ensures that
hardware semaphores are monotonic as required by older hardware. To
meet these restrictions when we defer the assignment of the global
seqno, we must check that we have an available slot in the global seqno
space during request construction. If that test fails, we wait for all
requests to be completed and reset the hardware back to 0.

Move the actual emission of the breadcrumb for closing the request from
i915_add_request() to the submit callback. (It can be moved later when
required.) This allows us to defer the allocation of the global_seqno
from request construction to actual submission, allowing us to emit the
requests out of order (wrt to the order of their construction, they
still will only be executed one all of their dependencies are resolved
including that all earlier requests on their timeline have been
submitted.) We have to specialise how we then emit the request in order
to write into the preallocated space, rather than at the tail of the
ringbuffer (which will have been advanced by the addition of new
requests).

Though we will have multiple timelines, we still have a single timeline
of execution. This we can use to provide an execution and retirement order
of requests. This keeps tracking execution of requests simple, and vital
for preserving a single waiter (i.e. so that we can order the waiters so
that only the earliest to wakeup need be woken). To accomplish this we
distinguish the seqno used to order requests per-context (external) and
that used internally for execution.

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.

In preparation to support many distinct timelines, we need to expand the
activity tracking on the GEM object to handle more than just a request
per engine. We already use the struct reservation_object on the dma-buf
to handle many fence contexts, so integrating that into the GEM object
itself is the preferred solution. (For example, we can now share the same
reservation_object between every consumer/producer using this buffer and
skip the manual import/export via dma-buf.)
v2: Reimplement busy-ioctl (by walking the reservation object), postpone
the ABI change for another day. Similarly use the reservation object to
find the last_write request (if active and from i915) for choosing
display CS flips.
Caveats:
* busy-ioctl: busy-ioctl only reports on the native fences, it will not
warn of stalls (in set-domain-ioctl, pread/pwrite etc) if the object is
being rendered to by external fences. It also will not report the same
busy state as wait-ioctl (or polling on the dma-buf) in the same
circumstances. On the plus side, it does retain reporting of which
*i915* engines are engaged with this object.
* non-blocking atomic modesets take a step backwards as the wait for
render completion blocks the ioctl. This is fixed in a subsequent
patch to use a fence instead for awaiting on the rendering, see
"drm/i915: Restore nonblocking awaits for modesetting"
* dynamic array manipulation for shared-fences in reservation is slower
than the previous lockless static assignment (e.g. gem_exec_lut_handle
runtime on ivb goes from 42s to 66s), mainly due to atomic operations
(maintaining the fence refcounts).
* loss of object-level retirement callbacks, emulated by VMA retirement
tracking.
* minor loss of object-level last activity information from debugfs,
could be replaced with per-vma information if desired

that handled unlocked, RPS boosting, waits with time tracking. If we
push our GEM fence tracking to use reservation_objects (required for

functionality from i915_wait_request() to the individual callsites
