This patch introduces the support of LRC context single submission.
As GVT context may come from different guests, which require different
configuration of render registers. It can't be combined into a dual ELSP
submission combo.
Only GVT-g will create this kinds of GEM context currently.

This patch introduces an approach to track the execlist context status
change.
GVT-g uses GVT context as the "shadow context". The content inside GVT
context will be copied back to guest after the context is idle. And GVT-g
has to know the status of the execlist context.
This function is configurable when creating a new GEM context. Currently,
Only GVT-g will create the "status-change-notification" enabled GEM
context.

generated from the configuration of system-wide PPGTT usage model.

afee4d8707 Revert "drm/i915: Avoid stalling on pending flips for legacy cursor updates"
"drm/i915: Allow nonblocking update of pageflips" should have been
split up, misses a proper commit message and seems to cause issues in
the legacy page_flip path as demonstrated by kms_flip.
"drm/i915: Make unpin async" doesn't handle the unthrottled cursor
updates correctly, leading to an apparent pin count leak. This is
caught by the WARN_ON in i915_gem_object_do_pin which screams if we
have more than DRM_I915_GEM_OBJECT_MAX_PIN_COUNT pins.
Unfortuantely we can't just revert these two because this patch series
came with a built-in bisect breakage in the form of temporarily
removing the unthrottled cursor update hack for legacy cursor ioctl.
Therefore there's no other option than to revert the entire pile :(
There's one tiny conflict in intel_drv.h due to other patches, nothing
serious.
Normally I'd wait a bit longer with doing a maintainer revert, but
since the minimal set of patches we need to revert (due to the bisect
breakage) is so big, time is running out fast. And very soon
(especially after a few attempts at fixing issues) it'll be really
hard to revert things cleanly.
Lessons learned:
- Not a good idea to rush the review (done by someone fairly new to
the area) and not make sure domain experts had a chance to read it.
- Patches should be properly split up. I only looked at the two
patches that should be reverted in detail, but both look like the
mix up different things in one patch.
- Patches really should have proper commit messages. Especially when
doing more than one thing, and especially when touching critical and
tricky core code.
- Building a patch series and r-b stamping it when it has a built-in
bisect breakage is not a good idea.
- I also think we need to stop building up technical debt by
postponing atomic igt testcases even longer. I think it's clear that
there's enough corner cases in this beast that we really need to
have the testcases _before_ the next step lands.

Our goal is to rename the anonymous per-engine struct beneath the
current intel_context. However, after a lively debate resolving around
the confusion between intel_context_engine and intel_engine_context, the
realisation is that the two structs target different users. The outer
struct is API / user facing, and so carries the higher level GEM
information. The inner struct is hw facing. Thus we want to name the
inner struct intel_context and the outer one i915_gem_context. As the
first step, we need to rename the current struct:
s/struct intel_context/struct i915_gem_context/
which fits much better with its constructors already conveying the
i915_gem_context prefix!

With the previous patch having extended the pinned lifetime of
contexts by referencing the previous context from the current
request until the latter is retired (completed by the GPU),
we can now remove usage of execlist retired queue entirely.
This is because the above now guarantees that all execlist
object access requirements are satisfied by this new tracking,
and we can stop taking additional references and stop keeping
request on the execlists retired queue.
The latter was a source of significant scalability issues in
the driver causing performance hits on some tests. Most
dramatical of which was igt/gem_close_race which had run time
in tens of minutes which is now reduced to tens of seconds.

As the contexts are accessed by the hardware until the switch is completed
to a new context, the hardware may still be writing to the context object
after the breadcrumb is visible. We must not unpin/unbind/prune that
object whilst still active and so we keep the previous context pinned until
the following request. We can generalise the tracking we already do via
the engine->last_context and move it to the request so that it works
equally for execlists and GuC.

In the next patches, we want to move the work out of freeing the request
and into its retirement (so that we can free the request without
requiring the struct_mutex). This means that we cannot rely on
unreferencing the request to completely teardown the request any more
and so we need to manually unwind the failed allocation. In doing so, we
reorder the allocation in order to make the unwind simple (and ensure
that we don't try to unwind a partial request that may have modified
global state) and so we end up pushing the initial preallocation down
into the engine request initialisation functions where we have the
requisite control over the state of the request.
Moving the initial preallocation into the engine is less than ideal: it
moves logic to handle a specific problem with request handling out of
the common code. On the other hand, it does allow those backends
significantly more flexibility in performing its allocations.

Allow for the MOCS to be programmed for all engines.
Currently we program the MOCS when the first render batch
goes through. This works on most platforms but fails on
platforms that do not run a render batch early,
i.e. headless servers. The patch now programs all initialised engines
on init and the RCS is programmed again within the initial batch. This
is done for predictable consistency with regards to the hardware
context.
Hardware context loading sets the values of the MOCS for RCS
and L3CC. Programming them from within the batch makes sure that
the render context is valid, no matter what the previous state of
the saved-context was.

Conceptually, each request is a record of a hardware transaction - we
build up a list of pending commands and then either commit them to
hardware, or cancel them. However, whilst building up the list of
pending commands, we may modify state outside of the request and make
references to the pending request. If we do so and then cancel that
request, external objects then point to the deleted request leading to
both graphical and memory corruption.
The easiest example is to consider object/VMA tracking. When we mark an
object as active in a request, we store a pointer to this, the most
recent request, in the object. Then we want to free that object, we wait
for the most recent request to be idle before proceeding (otherwise the
hardware will write to pages now owned by the system, or we will attempt
to read from those pages before the hardware is finished writing). If
the request was cancelled instead, that wait completes immediately. As a
result, all requests must be committed and not cancelled if the external
state is unknown.
All that remains of i915_gem_request_cancel() users are just a couple of
extremely unlikely allocation failures, so remove the API entirely.
A consequence of committing all incomplete requests is that we generate
excess breadcrumbs and fill the ring much more often with dummy work. We
have completely undone the outstanding_last_seqno optimisation.

Reporting -EIO from i915_wait_request() has proven very troublematic
over the years, with numerous hard-to-reproduce bugs cropping up in the
corner case of where a reset occurs and the code wasn't expecting such
an error.
If the we reset the GPU or have detected a hang and wish to reset the
GPU, the request is forcibly complete and the wait broken. Currently, we
report either -EAGAIN or -EIO in order for the caller to retreat and
restart the wait (if appropriate) after dropping and then reacquiring
the struct_mutex (essential to allow the GPU reset to proceed). However,
if we take the view that the request is complete (no further work will
be done on it by the GPU because it is dead and soon to be reset), then
we can proceed with the task at hand and then drop the struct_mutex
allowing the reset to occur. This transfers the burden of checking
whether it is safe to proceed to the caller, which in all but one
instance it is safe - completely eliminating the source of all spurious
-EIO.
Of note, we only have two API entry points where we expect that
userspace can observe an EIO. First is when submitting an execbuf, if
the GPU is terminally wedged, then the operation cannot succeed and an
-EIO is reported. Secondly, existing userspace uses the throttle ioctl
to detect an already wedged GPU before starting using HW acceleration

the GPU is wedged when the user calls throttle, also report -EIO.

ABI from the reset handling.
v3: Add a couple of WARN_ON(EIO) to the interruptible modesetting code
so that we don't start to leak EIO there in future (and break our hang
resistant modesetting).

As the request is only valid during the same global reset epoch, we can
record the current reset_counter when constructing the request and reuse
it when waiting upon that request in future. This removes a very hairy
atomic check serialised by the struct_mutex at the time of waiting and
allows us to transfer those waits to a central dispatcher for all
waiters and all requests.
PS: With per-engine resets, we obviously cannot assume a global reset
epoch for the requests - a per-engine epoch makes the most sense. The
challenge then is how to handle checking in the waiter for when to break
the wait, as the fine-grained reset may also want to requeue the
request (i.e. the assumption that just because the epoch changes the
request is completed may be broken - or we just avoid breaking that
assumption with the fine-grained resets).

This is principally a little bit of syntatic sugar to hide the
atomic_read()s throughout the code to retrieve the current reset_counter.
It also provides the other utility functions to check the reset state on the
already read reset_counter, so that (in later patches) we can read it once
and do multiple tests rather than risk the value changing between tests.

We started to use PIPE_CONTROL to write render ring seqno in order to
combat seqno write vs interrupt generation problems. This was introduced

On gen8+ size of PIPE_CONTROL with Post Sync Operation should be

Split the hardware status page into setup and initialisation,
where setup means setting up the driver state to support the
engine, and initialization means programming the hardware
with the before set up state.
This way the design matches the design of the engine setup/init
code which is split in the same fashion and it enables the
stages to be used in a balanced fashion (engine setup - hws
setup, engine init - hws init).
This will enable the upcoming improvements to slot in without
any kludges on the GPU reset path.

Rather than blindly waking up all forcewake domains on command
submission, we can teach each engine what is (or are) the correct
one to take.
On platforms with multiple forcewake domains like VLV, CHV, SKL
and BXT, this has the potential of lowering the GPU and CPU
power use and submission latency.
To implement it we add a function named
intel_uncore_forcewake_for_reg whose purpose is to query which
forcewake domains need to be taken to read or write a specific
register with raw mmio accessors.
These enables the execlists engine setup to query which
forcewake domains are relevant per engine on the currently
running platform.

Currently for the case where there is enough space at the end of Ring
buffer for accommodating only the base request, the wrapround is done
immediately and as a result the base request gets added at the start
of Ring buffer. But there may not be enough free space at the beginning
to accommodate the base request, as before the wraparound, the wait was
effectively done for the reserved_size free space from the start of
Ring buffer. In such a case there is a potential of Ring buffer overflow,
the instructions at the head of Ring (ACTHD) can get overwritten.
Since the base request can fit in the remaining space, there is no need
to wraparound immediately. The wraparound will anyway happen later when
the reserved part starts getting used.

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:

I could not explain, or find a code path, which would explain
a +20 second lockup, but from some instrumentation it was
apparent the interrupts off proportion of time was between
10-25% under heavy load which is quite bad.
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)

By reading the CSB (slow MMIO accesses) into a temporary local
buffer we can decrease the duration of holding the execlist
lock.
Main advantage is that during heavy batch buffer submission we
reduce the execlist lock contention, which should decrease the
latency and CPU usage between the submitting userspace process
and interrupt handling.
Downside is that we need to grab and relase the forcewake twice,
but as the below numbers will show this is completely hidden
by the primary gains.
Testing with "gem_latency -n 100" (submit batch buffers with a
hundred nops each) shows more than doubling of the throughput
and more than halving of the dispatch latency, overall latency
and CPU time spend in the submitting process.
Submitting empty batches ("gem_latency -n 0") does not seem
significantly affected by this change with throughput and CPU
time improving by half a percent, and overall latency worsening
by the same amount.
Above tests were done in a hundred runs on a big core Broadwell.
