The do_execbuf() function takes quite a few parameters. The actual set of
parameters is going to change with the conversion to passing requests around.
Further, it is due to grow massively with the arrival of the GPU scheduler.
This patch simplifies the prototype by passing a parameter structure instead.
Changing the parameter set in the future is then simply a matter of
adding/removing items to the structure.
Note that the structure does not contain absolutely everything that is passed
in. This is because the intention is to use this structure more extensively
later in this patch series and more especially in the GPU scheduler that is
coming soon. The latter requires hanging on to the structure as the final
hardware submission can be delayed until long after the execbuf IOCTL has
returned to user land. Thus it is unsafe to put anything in the structure that
is local to the IOCTL call itself - such as the 'args' parameter. All entries
must be copies of data or pointers to structures that are reference counted in
some way and guaranteed to exist for the duration of the batch buffer's life.
v2: Rebased to newer tree and updated for changes to the command parser.
Specifically, a code shuffle has required saving the batch start address in the
params structure.

In execlist mode, the context object pointer is written in to the request
structure (and reference counted) at the point of request creation. In legacy
mode, this only happens inside i915_add_request().
This patch updates the legacy code path to match the execlist version. This
allows all the intermediate code between request creation and request submission
to get at the context object given only a request structure. Thus negating the
need to pass context pointers here, there and everywhere.

The i915_add_request() function is called to keep track of work that has been
written to the ring buffer. It adds epilogue commands to track progress (seqno
updates and such), moves the request structure onto the right list and other
such house keeping tasks. However, the work itself has already been written to
the ring and will get executed whether or not the add request call succeeds. So
no matter what goes wrong, there isn't a whole lot of point in failing the call.
At the moment, this is fine(ish). If the add request does bail early on and not
do the housekeeping, the request will still float around in the
ring->outstanding_lazy_request field and be picked up next time. It means
multiple pieces of work will be tagged as the same request and driver can't
actually wait for the first piece of work until something else has been
submitted. But it all sort of hangs together.
This patch series is all about removing the OLR and guaranteeing that each piece
of work gets its own personal request. That means that there is no more
'hoovering up of forgotten requests'. If the request does not get tracked then
it will be leaked. Thus the add request call _must_ not fail. The previous patch
should have already ensured that it _will_ not fail by removing the potential
for running out of ring space. This patch enforces the rule by actually removing
the early exit paths and the return code.
Note that if something does manage to fail and the epilogue commands don't get
written to the ring, the driver will still hang together. The request will be
added to the tracking lists. And as in the old case, any subsequent work will
generate a new seqno which will suffice for marking the old one as complete.
v2: Improved WARNings (Tomas Elf review request).

It is a bad idea for i915_add_request() to fail. The work will already have been
send to the ring and will be processed, but there will not be any tracking or
management of that work.
The only way the add request call can fail is if it can't write its epilogue
commands to the ring (cache flushing, seqno updates, interrupt signalling). The
reasons for that are mostly down to running out of ring buffer space and the
problems associated with trying to get some more. This patch prevents that
situation from happening in the first place.
When a request is created, it marks sufficient space as reserved for the
epilogue commands. Thus guaranteeing that by the time the epilogue is written,
there will be plenty of space for it. Note that a ring_begin() call is required
to actually reserve the space (and do any potential waiting). However, that is
not currently done at request creation time. This is because the ring_begin()
code can allocate a request. Hence calling begin() from the request allocation
code would lead to infinite recursion! Later patches in this series remove the
need for begin() to do the allocate. At that point, it becomes safe for the
allocate to call begin() and really reserve the space.
Until then, there is a potential for insufficient space to be available at the
point of calling i915_add_request(). However, that would only be in the case
where the request was created and immediately submitted without ever calling
ring_begin() and adding any work to that request. Which should never happen. And
even if it does, and if that request happens to fall down the tiny window of
opportunity for failing due to being out of ring space then does it really
matter because the request wasn't doing anything in the first place?
v2: Updated the 'reserved space too small' warning to include the offending
sizes. Added a 'cancel' operation to clean up when a request is abandoned. Added
re-initialisation of tracking state after a buffer wrap to keep the sanity
checks accurate.
v3: Incremented the reserved size to accommodate Ironlake (after finally
managing to run on an ILK system). Also fixed missing wrap code in LRC mode.
v4: Added extra comment and removed duplicate WARN (feedback from Tomas).

Some of the WA are to be applied during context save but before restore and
some at the end of context save/restore but before executing the instructions
in the ring, WA batch buffers are created for this purpose and these WA cannot
be applied using normal means. Each context has two registers to load the
offsets of these batch buffers. If they are non-zero, HW understands that it
need to execute these batches.
v1: In this version two separate ring_buffer objects were used to load WA
instructions for indirect and per context batch buffers and they were part
of every context.
v2: Chris suggested to include additional page in context and use it to load
these WA instead of creating separate objects. This will simplify lot of things
as we need not explicity pin/unpin them. Thomas Daniel further pointed that GuC
is planning to use a similar setup to share data between GuC and driver and
WA batch buffers can probably share that page. However after discussions with
Dave who is implementing GuC changes, he suggested to use an independent page
for the reasons - GuC area might grow and these WA are initialized only once and
are not changed afterwards so we can share them share across all contexts.
The page is updated with WA during render ring init. This has an advantage of
not adding more special cases to default_context.
We don't know upfront the number of WA we will applying using these batch buffers.
For this reason the size was fixed earlier but it is not a good idea. To fix this,
the functions that load instructions are modified to report the no of commands
inserted and the size is now calculated after the batch is updated. A macro is
introduced to add commands to these batch buffers which also checks for overflow
and returns error.
We have a full page dedicated for these WA so that should be sufficient for
good number of WA, anything more means we have major issues.
The list for Gen8 is small, same for Gen9 also, maybe few more gets added
going forward but not close to filling entire page. Chris suggested a two-pass
approach but we agreed to go with single page setup as it is a one-off routine
and simpler code wins.
One additional option is offset field which is helpful if we would like to
have multiple batches at different offsets within the page and select them
based on some criteria. This is not a requirement at this point but could
help in future (Dave).
Chris provided some helpful macros and suggestions which further simplified
the code, they will also help in reducing code duplication when WA for
other Gen are added. Add detailed comments explaining restrictions.
Use do {} while(0) for wa_ctx_emit() macro.

Currently, we only track the last request globally across all engines.
This prevents us from issuing concurrent read requests on e.g. the RCS
and BCS engines (or more likely the render and media engines). Without
semaphores, we incur costly stalls as we synchronise between rings -
greatly impacting the current performance of Broadwell versus Haswell in
certain workloads (like video decode). With the introduction of
reference counted requests, it is much easier to track the last request
per ring, as well as the last global write request so that we can

certain CPU waits).

When we submit a request to the GPU, we first take the rpm wakelock, and
only release it once the GPU has been idle for a small period of time
after all requests have been complete. This means that we are sure no
new interrupt can arrive whilst we do not hold the rpm wakelock and so
can drop the individual get/put around every single request inside
execlists.
Note: to close one potential issue we should mark the GPU as busy
earlier in __i915_add_request.
To elaborate: The issue is that we emit the irq signalling sequence
before we grab the rpm reference, which means we could miss the
resulting interrupt (since that's not set up when suspended). The only
bad side effect is a missed interrupt, gt mmio writes automatically
wake up the hw itself. But otoh we have an umbrella rpm reference for

I woke up one morning and found 50k objects sitting in the batch pool
and every search seemed to iterate the entire list... Painting the
screen in oils would provide a more fluid display.
One issue with the current design is that we only check for retirements
on the current ring when preparing to submit a new batch. This means
that we can have thousands of "active" batches on another ring that we
have to walk over. The simplest way to avoid that is to split the pools
per ring and then our LRU execution ordering will also ensure that the
inactive buffers remain at the front.

The legacy and LRC code paths have an almost identical procedure for waiting for
space in the ring buffer. They both search for a request in the free list that
will advance the tail to a point where sufficient space is available. They then
wait for that request, retire it and recalculate the free space value.
Unfortunately, a bug in the LRC side meant that the resulting free space might
not be as large as expected and indeed, might not be sufficient. This is because
it was testing against the value of request->tail not request->postfix. Whereas,
when a request is retired, ringbuf->tail is updated to req->postfix not
req->tail.
Another significant difference between the two is that the LRC one did not trust
the wait for request to work! It redid the is there enough space available test
and would fail the call if insufficient. Whereas, the legacy version just said
'return 0' - it assumed the preceeding code works. This difference meant that
the LRC version still worked even with the bug - it just fell back to the
polling wait path.

In execlist mode, the ringbuf is a function of the ring and context whereas in
legacy mode, it is derived from the ring alone. Thus the calculation required to
determine the ringbuf pointer from the ring (and context) also needs to test
execlist mode or not. This is messy.
Further, the request structure holds a pointer to both the ring and the context
for which it was created. Thus, given a request, it is possible to derive the
ringbuf in either legacy or execlist mode. Hence it is necessary to pass just
the request in to all the low level functions rather than some combination of
request, ring, context and ringbuf. However, rather than recalculating it each
time, it is much simpler to just cache the ringbuf pointer in the request
structure itself.
Caching the pointer means the calculation is done once at request creation time
and all further code and simply read it directly from the request structure.

There is a flags word that is passed through the execbuffer code path all the
way from initial decoding of the user parameters down to the very final dispatch
buffer call. It is simply called 'flags'. Unfortuantely, there are many other
flags words floating around in the same blocks of code. Even more once the GPU
scheduler arrives.
This patch makes it more obvious exactly which flags word is which by renaming
'flags' to 'dispatch_flags'. Note that the bit definitions for this flags word
already have an 'I915_DISPATCH_' prefix on them and so are not quite so

As we move toward dynamic page table allocation, it becomes much easier
to manage our data structures if break do things less coarsely by
breaking up all of our actions into individual tasks. This makes the
code easier to write, read, and verify.
Aside from the dissection of the allocation functions, the patch
statically allocates the page table structures without a page directory.
This remains the same for all platforms,
The patch itself should not have much functional difference. The primary
noticeable difference is the fact that page tables are no longer
allocated, but rather statically declared as part of the page directory.
This has non-zero overhead, but things gain additional complexity as a
result.
This patch exists for a few reasons:
1. Splitting out the functions allows easily combining GEN6 and GEN8
code. Page tables have no difference based on GEN8. As we'll see in a
future patch when we add the DMA mappings to the allocations, it
requires only one small change to make work, and error handling should
just fall into place.
2. Unless we always want to allocate all page tables under a given PDE,
we'll have to eventually break this up into an array of pointers (or
pointer to pointer).
3. Having the discrete functions is easier to review, and understand.
All allocations and frees now take place in just a couple of locations.
Reviewing, and catching leaks should be easy.
4. Less important: the GFP flags are confined to one location, which
makes playing around with such things trivial.

v3: For lrc, s/pdp.page_directory[i].daddr/pdp.page_directory[i]->daddr/
v4: Renamed free_pt/pd_single functions to unmap_and_free_pt/pd (Daniel)

requests, not all frees of requests were replaced with unrefs, and extraneous
refs/unrefs of contexts were added.
Correct the unbalanced refcount & replace the frees.
Remove a noisy warning when hitting the request creation path.
drm_i915_gem_request and intel_context are both kref reference counted
structures. Upon allocation, drm_i915_gem_request's ref count should be
bumped using kref_init. When a context is assigned to the request,
the context's reference count should be bumped using i915_gem_context_reference.
i915_gem_request_reference will reduce the context reference count when
the request is freed.

Work was getting left behind in LRC contexts during reset. This causes a hang
if the GPU is reset when HEAD==TAIL because the context's ringbuffer head and

Added a function intel_lr_context_reset() to reset head and tail on a LRC and

A previous commit enabled execlists by default:
commit 27401d126b ("drm/i915/bdw: Enable execlists by default where supported")
This allowed routine testing of execlists which exposed a regression when
resuming from suspend. The cause was tracked down the to recent changes to the
ring init sequence:
commit 35a57ffbb1 ("drm/i915: Only init engines once")
During a suspend/resume cycle the hardware Context Status Buffer write pointer
is reset. However since the recent changes to the init sequence the software CSB
read pointer is no longer reset. This means that context status events are not
handled correctly and new contexts are not written to the ELSP, resulting in an
apparent GPU hang.
Pending further changes to the ring init code, just move the
ring->next_context_status_buffer initialization into gen8_init_common_ring to
fix this regression.
v2: Moved init into gen8_init_common_ring rather than context_enable after
feedback from Daniel Vetter. Updated commit msg to reflect this and also cite
commits related to the regression. Fixed bz link to correct bug.

There is a general theory that kzmalloc is better/safer than kmalloc, especially
for interesting data structures. This change updates the request structure
allocation to be zero filled.
This also fixes crashes in the reset code. Quoting Mika's patch:
"Clean the request structure on alloc. Otherwise we might end up
referencing uninitialized fields. This is apparent when we try to
cleanup the preallocated request on ring reset, before any request has
been submitted to the ring. The request->ctx is foobar and we end up
freeing the foobarness."
Note that this fixes a regression introduced in
commit 9eba5d4a1d

A previous commit introduced engine init changes:
commit 372ee59699d9 ("drm/i915: Only init engines once")
This broke execlists as intel_lr_context_render_state_init was trying to emit
commands to the RCS for the default context before the ring->init_hw was called.
Made a new gen8_init_rcs_context function and assign in to render ring
init_context. Moved call to intel_logical_ring_workarounds_emit into
gen8_init_rcs_context to maintain previous functionality.
Moved call to render_state_init from lr_context_deferred_create into
gen8_init_rcs_context, and modified deferred_create to call ring->init_context
for non-default contexts.
Modified i915_gem_context_enable to call ring->init_context for the default
context.
So init_context will now always be called when the hw is ready - in
i915_gem_context_enable for the default context and in lr_context_deferred_create
for other contexts.

There are numerous places in the code where the driver's idea of
how much space is left in a ring is updated using the driver's
latest notions of the positions of 'head' and 'tail' for the ring.
Among them are some that update one or both of these values before
(re)doing the calculation. In particular, there are four different
places in the code where 'last_retired_head' is copied to 'head'
and then set to -1; and two of these do not have a guard to check
that it has actually been updated since last time it was consumed,
leaving the possibility that the dummy -1 can be transferred from
'last_retired_head' to 'head', causing the space calculation to
produce 'impossible' results (previously seen on Android/VLV).
This code therefore consolidates all the calculation and updating of
these values, such that there is only one place where the ring space
is updated, and it ALWAYS uses (and consumes) 'last_retired_head' if
(and ONLY if) it has been updated since the last call.

It makes a lot more sense (and makes future seqno -> request conversion patches
simpler) to fill in the 'ring' field of the request structure at the point of
creation rather than submission. Given that the request structure is assigned by
ring specific code and thus is locked to a ring from the start, there really is
no reason to defer this assignment.

There is no longer any need to retrieve a seqno value from an i915_add_request()
call. The calling code already knows which request structure is being processed
(it can only be ring->OLR). And as the request itself is now used in preference
to the basic seqno value, the latter is now redundant in this situation.

Updated i915_wait_seqno() to take a request structure instead of a seqno value
and renamed it accordingly. Internally, it just pulls the seqno out of the
request and calls on to __wait_seqno() as before. However, all the code further
up the stack is now simplified as it can just pass the request object straight
through without having to peek inside.

The plan is to use request structures everywhere that seqno values were
previously used. This means saving pointers to structures in places that used to
be simple integers. In turn, that means that the target structure now needs much
more stringent lifetime tracking. That is, it must not be freed while some other
random object still holds a pointer to it.
To achieve this tracking, a reference count needs to be added. Whenever a
pointer to the structure is saved away, the count must be incremented and the
free must only occur when all references have been released.

The aim is to replace seqno values with request structures. A step along the way
is to switch to using the PLR in preference to the OLS. That requires the PLR to
only be valid when and only when the OLS is also valid. I.e., the two must be
kept in lock step. Then, code which was using the OLS can be safely switched
over to using the PLR instead.

The logical ring code was updating the software ring 'head' value
by reading the hardware 'HEAD' register. In LRC mode, this is not
valid as the hardware is not necessarily executing the same context
that is being processed by the software. Thus reading the h/w HEAD
could put an unrelated (undefined, effectively random) value into
the s/w 'head' -- A Bad Thing for the free space calculations.

Same as with the context, pinning to GGTT regardless is harmful (it
badly fragments the GGTT and can even exhaust it).
Unfortunately, this case is also more complex than the previous one
because we need to map and access the ringbuffer in several places
along the execbuffer path (and we cannot make do by leaving the
default ringbuffer pinned, as before). Also, the context object
itself contains a pointer to the ringbuffer address that we have to
keep updated if we are going to allow the ringbuffer to move around.
v2: Same as with the context pinning, we cannot really do it during
an interrupt. Also, pin the default ringbuffers objects regardless
(makes error capture a lot easier).
v3: Rebased. Take a pin reference of the ringbuffer for each item
in the execlist request queue because the hardware may still be using
the ringbuffer after the MI_USER_INTERRUPT to notify the seqno update
is executed. The ringbuffer must remain pinned until the context save
is complete. No longer pin and unpin ringbuffer in
populate_lr_context() - this transient address is meaningless and the
pinning can cause a sleep while atomic.
v4: Moved ringbuffer pin and unpin into the lr_context_pin functions.
Downgraded pinning check BUG_ONs to WARN_ONs.
v5: Reinstated WARN_ONs for unexpected execlist states. Removed unused
variable.

Up until now, we have pinned every logical ring context backing object
during creation, and left it pinned until destruction. This made my life
easier, but it's a harmful thing to do, because we cause fragmentation
of the GGTT (and, eventually, we would run out of space).
This patch makes the pinning on-demand: the backing objects of the two
contexts that are written to the ELSP are pinned right before submission
and unpinned once the hardware is done with them. The only context that
is still pinned regardless is the global default one, so that the HWS can
still be accessed in the same way (ring->status_page).
v2: In the early version of this patch, we were pinning the context as
we put it into the ELSP: on the one hand, this is very efficient because
only a maximum two contexts are pinned at any given time, but on the other
hand, we cannot really pin in interrupt time :(
v3: Use a mutex rather than atomic_t to protect pin count to avoid races.
Do not unpin default context in free_request.
v4: Break out pin and unpin into functions. Fix style problems reported
by checkpatch
v5: Remove unpin_lock as all pinning and unpinning is done with the struct
mutex already locked. Add WARN_ONs to make sure this is the case in future.
