Jerome Glisse 09855acb1c drm/ttm: Convert ttm_buffer_object_init to use ttm_placement
Convert ttm_buffer_object_init to use struct ttm_placement and
rename to ttm_bo_init for consistency with function naming. This
allow to give more complex placement at buffer creation. For
instance you ask to allocate bo into vram first but if there is
not enough vram you can give system as a second possible
placement. It also allow to create buffer in a specific range.

Also rename ttm_buffer_object_validate to ttm_bo_validate.

Jerome Glisse ca262a9998 drm/ttm: Rework validation & memory space allocation (V3)
This change allow driver to pass sorted memory placement,
from most prefered placement to least prefered placement.
In order to avoid long function prototype a structure is
used to gather memory placement informations such as range
restriction (if you need a buffer to be in given range).
Range restriction is determined by fpfn & lpfn which are
the first page and last page number btw which allocation
can happen. If those fields are set to 0 ttm will assume
buffer can be put anywhere in the address space (thus it
avoids putting a burden on the driver to always properly
set those fields).

This patch also factor few functions like evicting first
entry of lru list or getting a memory space. This avoid
code duplication.

V2: Change API to use placement flags and array instead
    of packing placement order into a quadword.
V3: Make sure we set the appropriate mem.placement flag
    when validating or allocation memory space.

[Pending Thomas Hellstrom further review but okay
from preliminary review so far].

Dave Airlie df67bed92f drm/radeon/kms: fix coherency issues on AGP cards.
When we are evicting from VRAM->RAM we allocate the ttm object,
but we don't set the caching policy on it before blitting into it.
This means on AGP we end up blitting into cached pages, and
the CPU later flushes out on top of them. This was mostly seen as
font corruption.

The other question is why we don't evict VRAM->GTT in a lot of cases,
this would save us some cache transitions since a lot of objects
that are evicted from VRAM will probably end up being pulled back in
a few operations later, and evicting them to system memory involves
2 unnecessary cache transitions.

For x86 this affected highmem pages only, since they were always kmapped

For other architectures that may not modify the linear kernel map we
resort to vmap() for now, since kmap_atomic_prot() generally uses the
linear kernel map for lowmem pages. This of course comes with a
performance impact and should be optimized when possible.

This adds new set/get tiling interfaces where the pitch
and macro/micro tiling enables can be set. Along with
a flag to decide if this object should have a surface when mapped.

The only thing we need to allocate with a mapped surface should be
the frontbuffer. Note rotate scanout shouldn't require one, and
back/depth shouldn't either, though mesa needs some fixes.

It fixes the TTM interfaces along Thomas's suggestions, and I've tested
the surface stealing code with two X servers and not seen any lockdep issues.

I've stopped tiling the fbcon frontbuffer, as I don't see there being
any advantage other than testing, I've left the testing commands in there,
just flip the fb_tiled to true in radeon_fb.c

Open: Can we integrate endian swapping in with this?

Future features:
texture tiling - need to relocate texture registers TXOFFSET* with tiling info.

This also merges Michel's cleanup surfaces regs at init time patch
even though it makes sense on its own, this patch really relies on it.

Some PowerMac firmwares set up a tiling surface at the beginning of VRAM
which messes us up otherwise.

Thomas Hellstrom ba4e7d973d drm: Add the TTM GPU memory manager subsystem.
TTM is a GPU memory manager subsystem designed for use with GPU
devices with various memory types (On-card VRAM, AGP,
PCI apertures etc.). It's essentially a helper library that assists
the DRM driver in creating and managing persistent buffer objects.

TTM manages placement of data and CPU map setup and teardown on
data movement. It can also optionally manage synchronization of
data on a per-buffer-object level.

TTM takes care to provide an always valid virtual user-space address
to a buffer object which makes user-space sub-allocation of
big buffer objects feasible.

TTM uses a fine-grained per buffer-object locking scheme, taking
care to release all relevant locks when waiting for the GPU.
Although this implies some locking overhead, it's probably a big
win for devices with multiple command submission mechanisms, since
