Back in commit 27af5eea54d1 ("drm/i915: Move execlists irq handler to a
bottom half"), we came to the conclusion that running our CSB processing
and ELSP submission from inside the irq handler was a bad idea. A really
bad idea as we could impose nearly 1s latency on other users of the
system, on average! Deferring our work to a tasklet allowed us to do the
processing with irqs enabled, reducing the impact to an average of about
50us.
We have since eradicated the use of forcewaked mmio from inside the CSB
processing and ELSP submission, bringing the impact down to around 5us
(on Kabylake); an order of magnitude better than our measurements 2
years ago on Broadwell and only about 2x worse on average than the
gem_syslatency on an unladen system.
In this iteration of the tasklet-vs-direct submission debate, we seek a
compromise where by we submit new requests immediately to the HW but
defer processing the CS interrupt onto a tasklet. We gain the advantage
of low-latency and ksoftirqd avoidance when waking up the HW, while
avoiding the system-wide starvation of our CS irq-storms.
Comparing the impact on the maximum latency observed (that is the time
stolen from an RT process) over a 120s interval, repeated several times
(using gem_syslatency, similar to RT's cyclictest) while the system is
fully laden with i915 nops, we see that direct submission an actually
improve the worse case.

However, since the mean latency corresponds to the amount of irqsoff
processing we have to do for a CS interrupt, we only need to speed that
up to benefit not just system latency but our own throughput.
v2: Remember to defer submissions when under reset.
v4: Only use direct submission for new requests
v5: Be aware that with mixing direct tasklet evaluation and deferred
tasklets, we may end up idling before running the deferred tasklet.
v6: Remove the redudant likely() from tasklet_is_enabled(), restrict the
annotation to reset_in_progress().
v7: Take the full timeline.lock when enabling perf_pmu stats as the
tasklet is no longer a valid guard. A consequence is that the stats are
now only valid for engines also using the timeline.lock to process
state.

After a reset, we will ensure that there is at least one request
submitted to HW to ensure that a context is loaded for powersaving.
Let's wait for this submission via a tasklet to complete before we drop
our forcewake, ensuring the system is ready for rc6 before we let it
possibly sleep.

We were not very carefully checking to see if an older request on the
engine was an earlier switch-to-kernel-context before deciding to emit a
new switch. The end result would be that we could get into a permanent
loop of trying to emit a new request to perform the switch simply to
flush the existing switch.
What we need is a means of tracking the completion of each timeline
versus the kernel context, that is to detect if a more recent request
has been submitted that would result in a switch away from the kernel
context. To realise this, we need only to look in our syncmap on the
kernel context and check that we have synchronized against all active
rings.
v2: Since all ringbuffer clients currently share the same timeline, we do
have to use the gem_context to distinguish clients.
As a bonus, include all the tracing used to debug the death inside
suspend.
v3: Test, test, test. Construct a selftest to exercise and assert the
expected behaviour that multiple switch-to-contexts do not emit
redundant requests.

When setting up reset, we may need to recursively prepare an engine. In
which case we should only synchronously flush the tasklets on the outer
most call, the inner calls will then be inside an atomic section where
the tasklet will never be run (and so the sync will never complete).

The majority of the engine state dumping is too voluminous to be useful
outside of a controlled setup, though a few do accompany severe errors.
Keep the debug dumps next to the errors, but hide the others behind a CI
compile flag. This becomes more useful when adding more dumps to latency
sensitive paths.

We will want to park GEM before disengaging the drive^W^W^W unwedging.
Since we already do the work for idling, expose the guts as a new
function that we can then reuse.
v2: Just skip if already parked; makes it more forgiving to use by
future callers.
v3: Extract mark_busy, rename it to i915_gem_unpark and place it next to
i915_gem_park so that we can evaluate it for symmetry more easily.
Calling GEM from inside i915_request looks to be a bit of a layering
violation, for the moment I am imaging them as being notify_cb.

If we timeout waiting for the GPU to idle, something went seriously
wrong. We currently dump the engine state, but we can also dump the
ftrace buffer showing our last operations (when available).
In passing, note that since commit 559e040f1f08 ("drm/i915: Show the GPU
state when declaring wedged", we now show the engine state twice, once
in detecting the failed idle and then again on declaring wedged.
v2: ftrace_dump() takes a parameter specifying whether to dump all cpu
buffers or the local cpu's.

Trying to enable printk debugging for GEM is fraught with the issue of
spam; interactions with HW are very frequent and often boring. However,
one instance where they are not so boring is just before a BUG; here
ftrace provides a facility to dump its ringbuffer on an oops. So for CI
let's enable trace_printk() to capture the last exchanges with HW as a
death rattle.

Track the latest fence waited upon on each context, and only add a new
asynchronous wait if the new fence is more recent than the recorded
fence for that context. This requires us to filter out unordered
timelines, which are noted by DMA_FENCE_NO_CONTEXT. However, in the
absence of a universal identifier, we have to use our own
i915->mm.unordered_timeline token.
v2: Throw around the debug crutches
v3: Inline the likely case of the pre-allocation cache being full.
v4: Drop the pre-allocation support, we can lose the most recent fence
in case of allocation failure -- it just means we may emit more awaits
than strictly necessary but will not break.

It is required that the caller declare the exact number of dwords they
wish to write into the ring. This is required for two reasons, we need
to allocate sufficient space for the entire command packet and we need
to be sure that the contents are completely written to avoid executing
stale data. The current interface requires for any bug to be caught in
review, the reader has to carefully count the number of
intel_ring_emit() between intel_ring_begin() and intel_ring_advance().
If we record the end of the packet of each intel_ring_begin() we can
also have CI check for us.

Our timelines are more than just a seqno. They also provide an ordered
list of requests to be executed. Due to the restriction of handling
individual address spaces, we are limited to a timeline per address
space but we use a fence context per engine within.
Our first step to introducing independent timelines per context (i.e. to
allow each context to have a queue of requests to execute that have a
defined set of dependencies on other requests) is to provide a timeline
abstraction for the global execution queue.
