As alluded to in several patches, and it will be reiterated later... A
VMA is an abstraction for a GEM BO bound into an address space.
Therefore it stands to reason, that the existing bind, and unbind are
the ones which will be the most impacted. This patch implements this,
and updates all callers which weren't already updated in the series
(because it was too messy).
This patch represents the bulk of an earlier, larger patch. I've pulled
out a bunch of things by the request of Daniel. The history is preserved
for posterity with the email convention of ">" One big change from the
original patch aside from a bunch of cropping is I've created an
i915_vma_unbind() function. That is because we always have the VMA
anyway, and doing an extra lookup is useful. There is a caveat, we
retain an i915_gem_object_ggtt_unbind, for the global cases which might
not talk in VMAs.

Formerly: "drm/i915: Create VMAs (part 1)"
In a previous patch, the notion of a VM was introduced. A VMA describes
an area of part of the VM address space. A VMA is similar to the concept
in the linux mm. However, instead of representing regular memory, a VMA
is backed by a GEM BO. There may be many VMAs for a given object, one
for each VM the object is to be used in. This may occur through flink,
dma-buf, or a number of other transient states.
Currently the code depends on only 1 VMA per object, for the global GTT
(and aliasing PPGTT). The following patches will address this and make
the rest of the infrastructure more suited
v2: s/i915_obj/i915_gem_obj (Chris)
v3: Only move an object to the now global unbound list if there are no
more VMAs for the object which are bound into a VM (ie. the list is
empty).
v4: killed obj->gtt_space
some reworks due to rebase
v5: Free vma on error path (Imre)
v6: Another missed vma free in i915_gem_object_bind_to_gtt error path

"When moving the lists around explain that the active/inactive stuff is

shrinker which only cares about the amount of memory used and not one
bit about in which address space this memory is all used in. Of course
to actual kick out an object we need to unbind it from every address
space, but for that we have the per-object list of vmas."

Every address space should support object allocation. It therefore makes
sense to have the allocator be part of the "superclass" which GGTT and
PPGTT will derive.
Since our maximum address space size is only 2GB we're not yet able to
avoid doing allocation/eviction; but we'd hope one day this becomes
almost irrelvant.

Embedding the node in the obj is more natural in the transition to VMAs
which will also have embedded nodes. This change also helps transition
away from put_block to remove node.
Though it's quite an uncommon occurrence, it's somewhat convenient to not
fail at bind time because we cannot allocate the node. Though in
practice there are other allocations (like the request structure) which
would probably make this point not terribly useful.
Quoting Daniel:
Note that the only difference between put_block and remove_node is
that the former fills up the preallocation cache. Which we don't need
anyway and hence is just wasted space.
v2: Clean up the stolen preallocation code.

The purpose of the gtt structure is to help isolate our gtt specific
properties from the rest of the code (in doing so it help us finish the
isolation from the AGP connection).
The following members are pulled out (and renamed):
gtt_start
gtt_total
gtt_mappable_end
gtt_mappable
gtt_base_addr
gsm
The gtt structure will serve as a nice place to put gen specific gtt
routines in upcoming patches. As far as what else I feel belongs in this
structure: it is meant to encapsulate the GTT's physical properties.
This is why I've not added fields which track various drm_mm properties,
or things like gtt_mtrr (which is itself a pretty transient field).

Avoid stalling and waiting for the GPU by checking to see if there is
sufficient inactive space in the aperture for us to bind the buffer
prior to writing through the GTT. If there is inadequate space we will
have to stall waiting for the GPU, and incur overheads moving objects
about. Instead, only incur the clflush overhead on the target object by
writing through shmem.

When dealing with a working set larger than the GATT, or even the
mappable aperture when touching through the GTT, we end up with evicting
objects only to rebind them at a new offset again later. Moving an
object into and out of the GTT requires clflushing the pages, thus
causing a double-clflush penalty for rebinding.
To avoid having to clflush on rebinding, we can track the pages as they
are evicted from the GTT and only relinquish those pages on memory
pressure.
As usual, if it were not for the handling of out-of-memory condition and
having to manually shrink our own bo caches, it would be a net reduction
of code. Alas.
Note: The patch also contains a few changes to the last-hope
evict_everything logic in i916_gem_execbuffer.c - we no longer try to
only evict the purgeable stuff in a first try (since that's superflous
and only helps in OOM corner-cases, not fragmented-gtt trashing
situations).
Also, the extraction of the get_pages retry loop from bind_to_gtt (and
other callsites) to get_pages should imo have been a separate patch.
v2: Ditch the newly added put_pages (for unbound objects only) in
i915_gem_reset. A quick irc discussion hasn't revealed any important
reason for this, so if we need this, I'd like to have a git blame'able
explanation for it.

In order to support snoopable memory on non-LLC architectures (so that
we can bind vgem objects into the i915 GATT for example), we have to
avoid the prefetcher on the GPU from crossing memory domains and so
prevent allocation of a snoopable PTE immediately following an uncached
PTE. To do that, we need to extend the range allocator with support for
tracking and segregating different node colours.
This will be used by i915 to segregate memory domains within the GTT.

Based in a large part upon Daniel Vetter's implementation and adapted
for handling multiple rings in a single pass.
This should lead to better gtt usage and fixes the page-fault-of-doom
triggered. The fairness is provided by scanning through the GTT space
amalgamating space in rendering order. As soon as we have a contiguous
space in the GTT large enough for the new object (and its alignment),
evict any object which lies within that space. This should keep more
objects resident in the GTT.
Doing throughput testing on a PineView machine with cairo-perf-trace
indicates that there is very little difference with the new LRU scan,
perhaps a small improvement... Except oddly for the poppler trace.
