Chris Wilson 31bb59cc01 drm/i915: Move the get/put irq locking into the caller
With only a single callsite for intel_engine_cs->irq_get and ->irq_put,
we can reduce the code size by moving the common preamble into the
caller, and we can also eliminate the reference counting.

For completeness, as we are no longer doing reference counting on irq,
rename the get/put vfunctions to enable/disable respectively and are
able to review the use of posting reads. We only require the
serialisation with hardware when enabling the interrupt (i.e. so we
cannot miss an interrupt by going to sleep before the hardware truly
enables it).

Chris Wilson 688e6c7258 drm/i915: Slaughter the thundering i915_wait_request herd
One particularly stressful scenario consists of many independent tasks
all competing for GPU time and waiting upon the results (e.g. realtime
transcoding of many, many streams). One bottleneck in particular is that
each client waits on its own results, but every client is woken up after
every batchbuffer - hence the thunder of hooves as then every client must
do its heavyweight dance to read a coherent seqno to see if it is the
lucky one.

Ideally, we only want one client to wake up after the interrupt and
check its request for completion. Since the requests must retire in
order, we can select the first client on the oldest request to be woken.
Once that client has completed his wait, we can then wake up the
next client and so on. However, all clients then incur latency as every
process in the chain may be delayed for scheduling - this may also then
cause some priority inversion. To reduce the latency, when a client
is added or removed from the list, we scan the tree for completed
seqno and wake up all the completed waiters in parallel.

Using igt/benchmarks/gem_latency, we can demonstrate this effect. The
benchmark measures the number of GPU cycles between completion of a
batch and the client waking up from a call to wait-ioctl. With many
concurrent waiters, with each on a different request, we observe that
the wakeup latency before the patch scales nearly linearly with the
number of waiters (before external factors kick in making the scaling much
worse). After applying the patch, we can see that only the single waiter
for the request is being woken up, providing a constant wakeup latency
for every operation. However, the situation is not quite as rosy for
many waiters on the same request, though to the best of my knowledge this
is much less likely in practice. Here, we can observe that the
concurrent waiters incur extra latency from being woken up by the
solitary bottom-half, rather than directly by the interrupt. This
appears to be scheduler induced (having discounted adverse effects from
having a rbtree walk/erase in the wakeup path), each additional
wake_up_process() costs approximately 1us on big core. Another effect of
performing the secondary wakeups from the first bottom-half is the
incurred delay this imposes on high priority threads - rather than
immediately returning to userspace and leaving the interrupt handler to
wake the others.

To offset the delay incurred with additional waiters on a request, we
could use a hybrid scheme that did a quick read in the interrupt handler
and dequeued all the completed waiters (incurring the overhead in the
interrupt handler, not the best plan either as we then incur GPU
submission latency) but we would still have to wake up the bottom-half
every time to do the heavyweight slow read. Or we could only kick the
waiters on the seqno with the same priority as the current task (i.e. in
the realtime waiter scenario, only it is woken up immediately by the
interrupt and simply queues the next waiter before returning to userspace,
minimising its delay at the expense of the chain, and also reducing
contention on its scheduler runqueue). This is effective at avoid long
pauses in the interrupt handler and at avoiding the extra latency in
realtime/high-priority waiters.

v2: Convert from a kworker per engine into a dedicated kthread for the
bottom-half.
v3: Rename request members and tweak comments.
v4: Use a per-engine spinlock in the breadcrumbs bottom-half.
v5: Fix race in locklessly checking waiter status and kicking the task on
adding a new waiter.
v6: Fix deciding when to force the timer to hide missing interrupts.
v7: Move the bottom-half from the kthread to the first client process.
v8: Reword a few comments
v9: Break the busy loop when the interrupt is unmasked or has fired.
v10: Comments, unnecessary churn, better debugging from Tvrtko
v11: Wake all completed waiters on removing the current bottom-half to
reduce the latency of waking up a herd of clients all waiting on the
same request.
v12: Rearrange missed-interrupt fault injection so that it works with
igt/drv_missed_irq_hang
v13: Rename intel_breadcrumb and friends to intel_wait in preparation
for signal handling.
v14: RCU commentary, assert_spin_locked
v15: Hide BUG_ON behind the compiler; report on gem_latency findings.
v16: Sort seqno-groups by priority so that first-waiter has the highest
task priority (and so avoid priority inversion).
v17: Add waiters to post-mortem GPU hang state.
v18: Return early for a completed wait after acquiring the spinlock.
Avoids adding ourselves to the tree if the is already complete, and
skips the awkward question of why we don't do completion wakeups for
waits earlier than or equal to ourselves.
v19: Prepare for init_breadcrumbs to fail. Later patches may want to
allocate during init, so be prepared to propagate back the error code.

Tvrtko Ursulin a19d6ff29a drm/i915: Small compaction of the engine init code
Effectively removes one layer of indirection between the mask of
possible engines and the engine constructors. Instead of spelling
out in code the mapping of HAS_<engine> to constructors, makes
more use of the recently added data driven approach by putting
engine constructor vfuncs into the table as well.

Effect is fewer lines of source and smaller binary.

At the same time simplify the error handling since engine
destructors can run on unitialized engines anyway.

Similar approach could be done for legacy submission is wanted.

v2: Removed ugly BUILD_BUG_ONs in favour of newly introduced
    ENGINE_MASK and HAS_ENGINE macros.
    Also removed the forward declarations by shuffling functions
    around.

v3: Warn when logical_rings table does not contain enough data
    and disable the engines which could not be initialized.
    (Chris Wilson)

v4: Chris Wilson suggested a nicer engine init loop.

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.

Chris Wilson bca44d8055 drm/i915: Merge legacy+execlists context structs
struct intel_context contains two substructs, one for the legacy RCS and
one for every execlists engine. Since legacy RCS is a subset of the
execlists engine support, just combine the two substructs.

v2: Only pin the default context for legacy mode (the object only exists
for legacy, but adding i915.enable_execlists provides symmetry with the

Chris Wilson e2efd13007 drm/i915: Rename struct intel_context
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!

For legacy ringbuffer mode, we need the new ordered breadcrumb emission

that it writes to an arbitrary address, useful if one wants to write a
breadcrumb elsewhere.

Tvrtko Ursulin e39d42fa7e drm/i915: Stop tracking execlists retired requests
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.

Chris Wilson a16a405259 drm/i915: Track the previous pinned context inside the request
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.

v2: Drop the execlists double pin as that exposes a race inside the lrc
irq handler as it tries to access the context after it may be retired.

Chris Wilson bfa0120073 drm/i915: Manually unwind after a failed request allocation
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.

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.

v2: posted correct version to the mailing list.
v3: moved programming to within engine->init_hw() (Chris Wilson)
v4: code formatting and white-space changes. (Chris Wilson)

Chris Wilson aa9b78104f drm/i915: Late request cancellations are harmful
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.
