There are too many oustanding issues: - Fence handling in the current code is broken. There's a patch series from me, but it's blocked on and extended review (which includes writing the testcases). - IOMMU mapping handling is broken, we need to properly refcount it - currently it gets destroyed when the first vma is unbound, so way too early. - There's a pending reset issue on snb. Since Mika's reset work and full ppgtt have been pulled in in separate branches and ended up intermittingly breaking each another it's unclear who's the exact culprit here. - We still have persistent evidince of crazy recursion bugs through vma_unbind and ppgtt_relase, e.g. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73383 This issue (and a few others meanwhile resolved) have blocked our performance measuring/tuning group since 3 months. - Secure batch dispatching is broken. This is blocking Brad Volkin's command checker work since 3 months. All these issues are confirmed to only happen when full ppgtt is enabled, falling back to aliasing ppgtt resolves them. But even aliasing ppgtt itself still has a regression: - We currently unconditionally bind objects into the aliasing ppgtt, which means all priviledged objects like ringbuffers are visible to unpriviledged access again. On top of that this also breaks the command checker for aliasing ppgtt, since it can't hide the validated batch any more. Furthermore topic/full-ppgtt has never been reviewed: - Lifetime rules around vma unbinding/release are unclear, resulting into this awesome hack called ppgtt_release. Which seems to take the blame for most of the recursion fallout. - Context/ring init works different on gpu reset than anywhere else. Such differeneces have in the past always lead to really hard to track down bugs. - Aliasing ppgtt is treated in a bunch of places as a real address space, but it isn't - the real address space is always the global gtt in that case. This results in a bit a mess between contexts and ppgtt object, further complication the context/ppgtt/vma lifetime rules. - We don't have any docs describing the overall concepts introduced with full ppgtt. A short, concise overview describing vmas and some of the strange bits around them (like the unbound vmas used by execbuf, or the new binding rules) really is needed. Note that a lot of the post topic/full-ppgtt merge fallout has already been addressed, this entire list here of 10 issues really only contains the still outstanding issues. Finally the 3.15 merge window is approaching and I think we need to use the remaining time to ensure that our fallback option of using aliasing ppgtt is in solid shape. Hence I think it's time to throw the switch. While at it demote the helper from static inline status because really.

************************************************************
The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=387
http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/
