The plan is to use the blitter engine for async object clearing when
using local memory, but before we can move the worker to get_pages() we
have to first tame some more of our struct_mutex usage. With this in
mind we should be able to upstream the object clearing as some
selftests, which should serve as a guinea pig for the ongoing locking
rework and upcoming async get_pages() framework.

Some users require that when a master batch is executed on one particular
engine, a companion batch is run simultaneously on a specific slave
engine. For this purpose, we introduce virtual engine bonding, allowing
maps of master:slaves to be constructed to constrain which physical
engines a virtual engine may select given a fence on a master engine.
For the moment, we continue to ignore the issue of preemption deferring
the master request for later. Ideally, we would like to then also remove
the slave and run something else rather than have it stall the pipeline.
With load balancing, we should be able to move workload around it, but
there is a similar stall on the master pipeline while it may wait for
the slave to be executed. At the cost of more latency for the bonded
request, it may be interesting to launch both on their engines in
lockstep. (Bubbles abound.)

GEM is no longer responsible for the wakeref and by the time we call the

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.

When we introduced preemption, we chose to keep it disabled for gen8 as
supporting preemption inside GPGPU user batches required various w/a in
userspace. Since then, the desire to preempt long queues of requests
between batches (e.g. within busywaiting semaphores) has grown. So allow
arbitration within the busywaits and between requests, but disable
arbitration within user batches so that we can preempt between requests
and not risk breaking GPGPU.
However, since this preemption is much coarser and doesn't interfere
with userspace, we decline to include it amongst the scheduler
capabilities. (This is also required for us to skip over the preemption
selftests that expect to be able to preempt user batches.)
Michal suggested that we could perhaps allow preemption inside gen8
userspace batches if we can satisfy ourselves that the default
preemption settings are viable with existing userspace (principally
OpenCL which already should carry any known workaround). We could then
merge the two code paths back into one, even dropping the artifical
has-preemption device feature flag.

Previously, our view has been always to run the engines independently
within a context. (Multiple engines happened before we had contexts and
timelines, so they always operated independently and that behaviour
persisted into contexts.) However, at the user level the context often
represents a single timeline (e.g. GL contexts) and userspace must
ensure that the individual engines are serialised to present that
ordering to the client (or forgot about this detail entirely and hope no
one notices - a fair ploy if the client can only directly control one
engine themselves ;)
In the next patch, we will want to construct a set of engines that
operate as one, that have a single timeline interwoven between them, to
present a single virtual engine to the user. (They submit to the virtual
engine, then we decide which engine to execute on based.)
To that end, we want to be able to create contexts which have a single
timeline (fence context) shared between all engines, rather than multiple
timelines.

In preparation to making the ppGTT binding for a context explicit (to
facilitate reusing the same ppGTT between different contexts), allow the
user to create and destroy named ppGTT.
v2: Replace global barrier for swapping over the ppgtt and tlbs with a
local context barrier (Tvrtko)
v3: serialise with struct_mutex; it's lazy but required dammit
v4: Rewrite igt_ctx_shared_exec to be more different (aimed to be more
similarly, turned out different!)
v5: Fix up test unwind for aliasing-ppgtt (snb)
v6: Tighten language for uapi struct drm_i915_gem_vm_control.
v7: Patch the context image for runtime ppgtt switching!

32 is too many for the likes of kbl, and in order to insert that many
requests into the ring requires us to declare the first few hung --
understandably a slow and unexpected process. Instead, measure the size
of a singe requests and use that to estimate the upper bound on the
chain length we can use for our test, remembering to flush the previous
chain between tests for safety.

When we return pages to the system, we ensure that they are marked as
being in the CPU domain since any external access is uncontrolled and we
must assume the worst. This means that we need to always flush the pages
on acquisition if we need to use them on the GPU, and from the beginning
have used set-domain. Set-domain is overkill for the purpose as it is a
general synchronisation barrier, but our intent is to only flush the
pages being swapped in. If we move that flush into the pages acquisition
phase, we know then that when we have obj->mm.pages, they are coherent
with the GPU and need only maintain that status without resorting to
heavy handed use of set-domain.
The principle knock-on effect for userspace is through mmap-gtt
pagefaulting. Our uAPI has always implied that the GTT mmap was async
(especially as when any pagefault occurs is unpredicatable to userspace)
and so userspace had to apply explicit domain control itself
(set-domain). However, swapping is transparent to the kernel, and so on
first fault we need to acquire the pages and make them coherent for
access through the GTT. Our use of set-domain here leaks into the uABI
that the first pagefault was synchronous. This is unintentional and
baring a few igt should be unoticed, nevertheless we bump the uABI
version for mmap-gtt to reflect the change in behaviour.
Another implication of the change is that gem_create() is presumed to
create an object that is coherent with the CPU and is in the CPU write
domain, so a set-domain(CPU) following a gem_create() would be a minor
operation that merely checked whether we could allocate all pages for
the object. On applying this change, a set-domain(CPU) causes a clflush
as we acquire the pages. This will have a small impact on mesa as we move
the clflush here on !llc from execbuf time to create, but that should
have minimal performance impact as the same clflush exists but is now
done early and because of the clflush issue, userspace recycles bo and
so should resist allocating fresh objects.
Internally, the presumption that objects are created in the CPU
write-domain and remain so through writes to obj->mm.mapping is more
prevalent than I expected; but easy enough to catch and apply a manual
flush.
For the future, we should push the page flush from the central
set_pages() into the callers so that we can more finely control when it
is applied, but for now doing it one location is easier to validate, at
the cost of sometimes flushing when there is no need.

The timeline->name is only used for convenience in pretty printing the
i915_request.fence->ops->get_timeline_name() and it is just as
convenient to pull it from the gem_context directly. The few instances
of its use inside GEM_TRACE() has proven more of a nuisance than
helpful, so not worth saving imo.
