If a fence allocation fails in a blocking context, we will sleep on the
fence as a last resort. We can therefore allow ourselves to fail and
sleep on the fence instead of triggering a system-wide oom. This allows
us to throttle malicious clients that are consuming lots of system
resources by capping the amount of memory used by fences.

Even though all rendering should have been flushed at the end of the
previous requests, add an extra flush after switching to the
kernel_context. As the switch to the kernel_context is used when idling
the gpu (e.g. suspend), having an extra layer of paranoia to ensure

The legacy context switch for ringbuffer submission is multistaged,
where each of those stages may fail. However, we were updating global
state after some stages, and so we had to force the incomplete request
to be submitted because we could not unwind. Save the global state
before performing the switches, and so enable us to unwind back to the
previous global state should any phase fail. We then must cancel the
request instead of submitting it should the construction fail.

Since removing the module parameter to force selection of ringbuffer
emission for gen8, the code is defunct. Remove it.
To put the difference into perspective, a couple of microbenchmarks
(bdw i7-5557u, 20170324):
ring execlists
exec continuous nops on all rings: 1.491us 2.223us
exec sequential nops on each ring: 12.508us 53.682us
single nop + sync: 9.272us 30.291us
vblank_mode=0 glxgears: ~11000fps ~9000fps
Since the earlier submission, gen8 ringbuffer submission has fallen
further and further behind in features. So while ringbuffer may hold the
throughput crown, in terms of interactive latency, execlists is much
better. Alas, we have no convenient metrics for such, other than
demonstrating things we can do with execlists but can not using
legacy ringbuffer submission.
We have made a few improvements to lowlevel execlists throughput,
and ringbuffer currently panics on boot! (bdw i7-5557u, 20171026):

When we close the VMA, we unbind it from the ppgtt and tear down the
page directory pointing at it. That may trigger us to return WC pages
back to the system, requiring conversion back to WB which itself may
sleep. That makes i915_vma_close() unsuitable for use inside the RCU
read lock, which we need to hold to iterate the radixtree.
The fix is quite simple, we can close all the VMA as we close the ppgtt,
we only need to do that instead of closing them during destruction of
the LUT.
v2: Order between closing the LUT and the ppgtt is important; we use the
vma inside the LUT as a means of retrieving the object, and so we must
clear the LUT before freeing the VMA when closing the ppgtt.

Use a priority stored in the context as the initial value when
submitting a request. This allows us to change the default priority on a
per-context basis, allowing different contexts to be favoured with GPU
time at the expense of lower importance work. The user can adjust the
context's priority via I915_CONTEXT_PARAM_PRIORITY, with more positive
values being higher priority (they will be serviced earlier, after their
dependencies have been resolved). Any prerequisite work for an execbuf
will have its priority raised to match the new request as required.
Normal users can specify any value in the range of -1023 to 0 [default],
i.e. they can reduce the priority of their workloads (and temporarily
boost it back to normal if so desired).
Privileged users can specify any value in the range of -1023 to 1023,
[default is 0], i.e. they can raise their priority above all overs and
so potentially starve the system.
Note that the existing schedulers are not fair, nor load balancing, the
execution is strictly by priority on a first-come, first-served basis,
and the driver may choose to boost some requests above the range
available to users.
This priority was originally based around nice(2), but evolved to allow
clients to adjust their priority within a small range, and allow for a
privileged high priority range.
For example, this can be used to implement EGL_IMG_context_priority
https://www.khronos.org/registry/egl/extensions/IMG/EGL_IMG_context_priority.txt
EGL_CONTEXT_PRIORITY_LEVEL_IMG determines the priority level of
the context to be created. This attribute is a hint, as an
implementation may not support multiple contexts at some
priority levels and system policy may limit access to high
priority contexts to appropriate system privilege level. The
default value for EGL_CONTEXT_PRIORITY_LEVEL_IMG is
EGL_CONTEXT_PRIORITY_MEDIUM_IMG."
so we can map
PRIORITY_HIGH -> 1023 [privileged, will failback to 0]
PRIORITY_MED -> 0 [default]
PRIORITY_LOW -> -1023
They also map onto the priorities used by VkQueue (and a VkQueue is
essentially a timeline, our i915_gem_context under full-ppgtt).

This was the competing idea long ago, but it was only with the rewrite
of the idr as an radixtree and using the radixtree directly ourselves,
along with the realisation that we can store the vma directly in the
radixtree and only need a list for the reverse mapping, that made the
patch performant enough to displace using a hashtable. Though the vma ht
is fast and doesn't require any extra allocation (as we can embed the node
inside the vma), it does require a thread for resizing and serialization
and will have the occasional slow lookup. That is hairy enough to
investigate alternatives and favour them if equivalent in peak performance.
One advantage of allocating an indirection entry is that we can support a
single shared bo between many clients, something that was done on a
first-come first-serve basis for shared GGTT vma previously. To offset
the extra allocations, we create yet another kmem_cache for them.

When switching between contexts using the aliasing_ppgtt, the VM is
shared. We don't need to reload the PD registers unless they are dirty.
Martin Peres reported an issue that looks like corruption between
Haswell context switches, bisecting to commit f9326be5f1 ("drm/i915:
Rearrange switch_context to load the aliasing ppgtt on first use").
Switching between the same mm (the aliasing_ppgtt is used for all
contexts in this case) should be a nop, but appears to trigger some
side-effects in the context switch. However, as we know the switch
is redundant in this case, we can skip it and continue to ignore the
issue until somebody feels strong enough to investigate full-ppgtt on
gen7 again!
Except.. Martin was using full-ppgtt which is not supported as it
doesn't work correctly yet. So whilst the bisect did yield valuable
information about the failures, the fix should not have any user impact
under default settings, with the exception of a slightly lower
throughput on xcs as the VM would always be reloaded.

Currently, we move all unreferenced contexts to an RCU free list and

growing into a long list with frequent allocations starving the system
of available memory, before we allocate a new context we reap all the
stale contexts. This puts all the cost of destroying the context into
the next allocator, which is presumably more sensitive to syscall

If we take a reference to the object/vma when it is first used in an

The advent of full-ppgtt lead to an extra indirection between the object
and its binding. That extra indirection has a noticeable impact on how
fast we can convert from the user handles to our internal vma for
execbuffer. In order to bypass the extra indirection, we use a
resizable hashtable to jump from the object to the per-ctx vma.
rhashtable was considered but we don't need the online resizing feature
and the extra complexity proved to undermine its usefulness. Instead, we
simply reallocate the hastable on demand in a background task and
serialize it before iterating.
In non-full-ppgtt modes, multiple files and multiple contexts can share
the same vma. This leads to having multiple possible handle->vma links,
so we only use the first to establish the fast path. The majority of
buffers are not shared and so we should still be able to realise
speedups with multiple clients.

v3: Many style tweaks, most notably hiding the misuse of execobj[].rsvd2

GVTg has introduced the context status notifier to schedule the GVTg
workload. At that time, the notifier is bound to GVTg context only,
so GVTg is not aware of host workloads.
Now we are going to improve GVTg's guest workload scheduler policy,
and add Guc emulation support for new Gen graphics. Both these two
features require acknowledgment for all contexts running on hardware.
(But will not alter host workload.) So here try to make some change.
The change is simple:
1. Move the context status notifier head from i915_gem_context to
intel_engine_cs. Which means there is a notifier head per engine
instead of per context. Execlist driver still call notifier for
each context sched-in/out events of current engine.
2. At GVTg side, it binds a notifier_block for each physical engine
at GVTg initialization period. Then GVTg can hear all context
status events.
In this patch, GVTg do nothing for host context event, but later
will add a function there. But in any case, the notifier callback is
a noop if this is no active vGPU.
Since intel_gvt_init() is called at early initialization stage and
require the status notifier head has been initiated, I initiate it in
intel_engine_setup().
v2: remove a redundant newline. (chris)

We are required to reload the TLBs around context switches
(MI_SET_CONTEXT specifically) and the recommendation is do that before
the MI_SET_CONTEXT so that it is serialised with the switch and not
forgotten:
[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 pipeline PIPE_CONTROL with TLB inv bit set
immediately before MI_SET_CONTEXT.
However, we already do an unconditional TLB invalidate before every
batch so this condition is satifisfied.

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.
v3:
* Move tail advance back into intel_ring_begin.
* Rebase and tidy.

* Complete rebase after a few months since v3.
