Doing a lot of work in the interrupt handler introduces huge latencies to the system as a whole. Most dramatic effect can be seen by running an all engine stress test like igt/gem_exec_nop/all where, when the kernel config is lean enough, the whole system can be brought into multi-second periods of complete non-interactivty. That can look for example like this: NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 23s!

When a interrupt "cliff" is reached, which was >~320k irq/s on my machine, the whole system goes into a terrible state of the above described multi-second lockups. By moving the GT interrupt handling to a tasklet in a most simple way, the problem above disappears completely. Testing the effect on sytem-wide latencies using igt/gem_syslatency shows the following before this patch: gem_syslatency: cycles=1532739, latency mean=416531.829us max=2499237us gem_syslatency: cycles=1839434, latency mean=1458099.157us max=4998944us gem_syslatency: cycles=1432570, latency mean=2688.451us max=1201185us gem_syslatency: cycles=1533543, latency mean=416520.499us max=2498886us This shows that the unrelated process is experiencing huge delays in its wake-up latency. After the patch the results look like this: gem_syslatency: cycles=808907, latency mean=53.133us max=1640us gem_syslatency: cycles=862154, latency mean=62.778us max=2117us gem_syslatency: cycles=856039, latency mean=58.079us max=2123us gem_syslatency: cycles=841683, latency mean=56.914us max=1667us Showing a huge improvement in the unrelated process wake-up latency. It also shows an approximate halving in the number of total empty batches submitted during the test. This may not be worrying since the test puts the driver under a very unrealistic load with ncpu threads doing empty batch submission to all GPU engines each. Another benefit compared to the hard-irq handling is that now work on all engines can be dispatched in parallel since we can have up to number of CPUs active tasklets. (While previously a single hard-irq would serially dispatch on one engine after another.) More interesting scenario with regards to throughput is "gem_latency -n 100" which shows 25% better throughput and CPU usage, and 14% better dispatch latencies. I did not find any gains or regressions with Synmark2 or GLbench under light testing. More benchmarking is certainly required. v2: * execlists_lock should be taken as spin_lock_bh when queuing work from userspace now. (Chris Wilson) * uncore.lock must be taken with spin_lock_irq when submitting requests since that now runs from either softirq or process context. v3: * Expanded commit message with more testing data; * converted missed locking sites to _bh; * added execlist_lock comment. (Chris Wilson) v4: * Mention dispatch parallelism in commit. (Chris Wilson) * Do not hold uncore.lock over MMIO reads since the block is already serialised per-engine via the tasklet itself. (Chris Wilson) * intel_lrc_irq_handler should be static. (Chris Wilson) * Cancel/sync the tasklet on GPU reset. (Chris Wilson) * Document and WARN that tasklet cannot be active/pending on engine cleanup.
