This change is pre-emptively aiming to avoid a potential cause of kernel
logging noise in case some condition were to result in us seeing invalid
OA reports.
The workaround for the OA unit's tail pointer race condition is what
avoids the primary known cause of invalid reports being seen and with
that in place we aren't expecting to see this notice but it can't be
entirely ruled out.
Just in case some condition does lead to the notice then it's likely
that it will be triggered repeatedly while attempting to append a
sequence of reports and depending on the configured OA sampling
frequency that might be a large number of repeat notices.

This updates the tail pointer race workaround handling to updating the
'aged' pointer before looking to start aging a new one. There's the
possibility that there is already new data available and so we can
immediately start aging a new pointer without having to first wait for a
later hrtimer callback (and then another to age).

There's a HW race condition between OA unit tail pointer register
updates and writes to memory whereby the tail pointer can sometimes get
ahead of what's been written out to the OA buffer so far (in terms of
what's visible to the CPU).
Although this can be observed explicitly while copying reports to
userspace by checking for a zeroed report-id field in tail reports, we
want to account for this earlier, as part of the _oa_buffer_check to
avoid lots of redundant read() attempts.
Previously the driver used to define an effective tail pointer that
lagged the real pointer by a 'tail margin' measured in bytes derived
from OA_TAIL_MARGIN_NSEC and the configured sampling frequency.
Unfortunately this was flawed considering that the OA unit may also
automatically generate non-periodic reports (such as on context switch)
or the OA unit may be enabled without any periodic sampling.
This improves how we define a tail pointer for reading that lags the
real tail pointer by at least %OA_TAIL_MARGIN_NSEC nanoseconds, which
gives enough time for the corresponding reports to become visible to the
CPU.
The driver now maintains two tail pointers:
1) An 'aging' tail with an associated timestamp that is tracked until we
can trust the corresponding data is visible to the CPU; at which point
it is considered 'aged'.
2) An 'aged' tail that can be used for read()ing.
The two separate pointers let us decouple read()s from tail pointer aging.
The tail pointers are checked and updated at a limited rate within a
hrtimer callback (the same callback that is used for delivering POLLIN
events) and since we're now measuring the wall clock time elapsed since
a given tail pointer was read the mechanism no longer cares about
the OA unit's periodic sampling frequency.
The natural place to handle the tail pointer updates was in
gen7_oa_buffer_is_empty() which is called as part of blocking reads and
the hrtimer callback used for polling, and so this was renamed to
oa_buffer_check() considering the added side effect while checking
whether the buffer contains data.

This avoids redundantly passing an (inout) head and tail pointer to
gen7_append_oa_reports() from gen7_oa_read which doesn't need to
reference either itself.
Moving the head/tail reads and writes into gen7_append_oa_reports should
have no functional effect except to avoid some redundant head pointer
writes in cases where nothing was copied to userspace.
This is a stepping stone towards updating how the head and tail pointer
state is managed to improve the workaround for the OA unit's tail
pointer race. It reduces the number of places we need to read/write the
head and tail pointers.

If the function for checking whether there is OA buffer data available
(during a poll or blocking read) has false positives then we want to
avoid a situation where the subsequent read() returns EAGAIN (after
a more accurate check) followed by a poll() immediately reporting
the same false positive POLLIN event and effectively maintaining a
busy loop until there really is data.
This makes sure that we clear the .pollin event status whenever we
return EAGAIN to userspace which will throttle subsequent POLLIN events
and repeated attempts to read to the 5ms intervals of the hrtimer
callback we have.

The requests conversion introduced a nasty bug where we could generate a
new request in the middle of constructing a request if we needed to idle
the system in order to evict space for a context. The request to idle
would be executed (and waited upon) before the current one, creating a
minor havoc in the seqno accounting, as we will consider the current
request to already be completed (prior to deferred seqno assignment) but
ring->last_retired_head would have been updated and still could allow
us to overwrite the current request before execution.
We also employed two different mechanisms to track the active context
until it was switched out. The legacy method allowed for waiting upon an
active context (it could forcibly evict any vma, including context's),
but the execlists method took a step backwards by pinning the vma for
the entire active lifespan of the context (the only way to evict was to
idle the entire GPU, not individual contexts). However, to circumvent
the tricky issue of locking (i.e. we cannot take struct_mutex at the
time of i915_gem_request_submit(), where we would want to move the
previous context onto the active tracker and unpin it), we take the
execlists approach and keep the contexts pinned until retirement.
The benefit of the execlists approach, more important for execlists than
legacy, was the reduction in work in pinning the context for each
request - as the context was kept pinned until idle, it could short
circuit the pinning for all active contexts.
We introduce new engine vfuncs to pin and unpin the context
respectively. The context is pinned at the start of the request, and
only unpinned when the following request is retired (this ensures that
the context is idle and coherent in main memory before we unpin it). We
move the engine->last_context tracking into the retirement itself
(rather than during request submission) in order to allow the submission
to be reordered or unwound without undue difficultly.
And finally an ulterior motive for unifying context handling was to
prepare for mock requests.
v2: Rename to last_retired_context, split out legacy_context tracking
for MI_SET_CONTEXT.

Avoid using DRM_ERROR for conditions userspace can trigger with a bad
config when opening a stream or from not reading data in a timely
fashion (whereby the OA buffer fills up). These conditions are tested
by i-g-t which treats error messages as failures if using the test
runner. This wasn't an issue while the i915-perf igt tests were being
run in isolation.
One message relating to seeing a spurious zeroed report was changed to
use DRM_NOTE instead of DRM_ERROR. Ideally this warning shouldn't be
seen, but it's not a serious problem if it is. Considering that the
tail margin mechanism is only a heuristic it's possible we might see

Adds base i915 perf infrastructure for Gen performance metrics.
This adds a DRM_IOCTL_I915_PERF_OPEN ioctl that takes an array of uint64
properties to configure a stream of metrics and returns a new fd usable
with standard VFS system calls including read() to read typed and sized
records; ioctl() to enable or disable capture and poll() to wait for

A stream is opened something like:
uint64_t properties[] = {

DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_CTX_HANDLE, ctx_handle,
/* Include OA reports in samples */
DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_SAMPLE_OA, true,
/* OA unit configuration */
DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_OA_METRICS_SET, metrics_set_id,
DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_OA_FORMAT, report_format,
DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_OA_EXPONENT, period_exponent,
};
struct drm_i915_perf_open_param parm = {
.flags = I915_PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC |
I915_PERF_FLAG_FD_NONBLOCK |
I915_PERF_FLAG_DISABLED,
.properties_ptr = (uint64_t)properties,
.num_properties = sizeof(properties) / 16,
};
int fd = drmIoctl(drm_fd, DRM_IOCTL_I915_PERF_OPEN, ¶m);
Records read all start with a common { type, size } header with
DRM_I915_PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE being of most interest. Sample records
contain an extensible number of fields and it's the
DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_SAMPLE_xyz properties given when opening that
determine what's included in every sample.
No specific streams are supported yet so any attempt to open a stream
will return an error.
