This adds the UAPI for the Asahi driver targeting the GPU in the Apple
M1 and M2 series systems on chip. The UAPI design is based on other
modern Vulkan-capable drivers, including Xe and Panthor. Memory
management is based on explicit VM management. Synchronization is
exclusively explicit sync.
This UAPI is validated against our open source Mesa stack, which is
fully conformant to the OpenGL 4.6, OpenGL ES 3.2, OpenCL 3.0, and
Vulkan 1.4 standards. The Vulkan driver supports sparse, exercising the
VM_BIND mechanism.
This patch adds the standalone UAPI header. It is implemented by an open
source DRM driver written in Rust. We fully intend to upstream this
driver when possible. However, as a production graphics driver, it
depends on a significant number of Rust abstractions that will take a
long time to upstream. In the mean time, our userspace is upstream in
Mesa but is not allowed to probe with upstream Mesa as the UAPI is not
yet reviewed and merged in the upstream kernel. Although we ship a
patched Mesa in Fedora Asahi Remix, any containers shipping upstream
Mesa builds are broken for our users, including upstream Flatpak and
Waydroid runtimes. Additionally, it forces us to maintain forks of Mesa
and virglrenderer, which complicates bisects.
The intention in sending out this patch is for this UAPI to be
thoroughly reviewed. Once we as the DRM community are satisfied with the
UAPI, this header lands signifying that the UAPI is stable and must only
be evolved in backwards-compatible ways; it will be the UAPI implemented
in the DRM driver that eventually lands upstream. That promise lets us
enable upstream Mesa, solving all these issues while the upstream Rust
abstractions are developed.
https://github.com/alyssarosenzweig/linux/commits/agx-uapi-v7 contains
the DRM driver implementing this proposed UAPI.
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/33984 contains
the Mesa patches to implement this proposed UAPI.
That Linux and Mesa branch together give a complete graphics/compute
stack on top of this UAPI.

Panthor follows the lead of other recently submitted drivers with
ioctls allowing us to support modern Vulkan features, like sparse memory
binding:
- Pretty standard GEM management ioctls (BO_CREATE and BO_MMAP_OFFSET),
with the 'exclusive-VM' bit to speed-up BO reservation on job submission
- VM management ioctls (VM_CREATE, VM_DESTROY and VM_BIND). The VM_BIND
ioctl is loosely based on the Xe model, and can handle both
asynchronous and synchronous requests
- GPU execution context creation/destruction, tiler heap context creation
and job submission. Those ioctls reflect how the hardware/scheduler
works and are thus driver specific.
We also have a way to expose IO regions, such that the usermode driver
can directly access specific/well-isolate registers, like the
LATEST_FLUSH register used to implement cache-flush reduction.
This uAPI intentionally keeps usermode queues out of the scope, which
explains why doorbell registers and command stream ring-buffers are not
directly exposed to userspace.
v6:
- Add Maxime's and Heiko's acks
v5:
- Fix typo
- Add Liviu's R-b
v4:
- Add a VM_GET_STATE ioctl
- Fix doc
- Expose the CORE_FEATURES register so we can deal with variants in the
UMD
- Add Steve's R-b
v3:
- Add the concept of sync-only VM operation
- Fix support for 32-bit userspace
- Rework drm_panthor_vm_create to pass the user VA size instead of
the kernel VA size (suggested by Robin Murphy)
- Typo fixes
- Explicitly cast enums with top bit set to avoid compiler warnings in
-pedantic mode.
- Drop property core_group_count as it can be easily calculated by the
number of bits set in l2_present.

Make sure the uapi gets picked up by the normal docs build.

This commit provides the implementation for the new uapi motivated by the
Vulkan API. It allows user mode drivers (UMDs) to:
1) Initialize a GPU virtual address (VA) space via the new
DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_VM_INIT ioctl for UMDs to specify the portion of VA
space managed by the kernel and userspace, respectively.
2) Allocate and free a VA space region as well as bind and unbind memory
to the GPUs VA space via the new DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_VM_BIND ioctl.
UMDs can request the named operations to be processed either
synchronously or asynchronously. It supports DRM syncobjs
(incl. timelines) as synchronization mechanism. The management of the
GPU VA mappings is implemented with the DRM GPU VA manager.
3) Execute push buffers with the new DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_EXEC ioctl. The
execution happens asynchronously. It supports DRM syncobj (incl.
timelines) as synchronization mechanism. DRM GEM object locking is
handled with drm_exec.
Both, DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_VM_BIND and DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_EXEC, use the DRM
GPU scheduler for the asynchronous paths.

This commit provides the interfaces for the new UAPI motivated by the
Vulkan API. It allows user mode drivers (UMDs) to:
1) Initialize a GPU virtual address (VA) space via the new
DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_VM_INIT ioctl. UMDs can provide a kernel reserved
VA area.
2) Bind and unbind GPU VA space mappings via the new
DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_VM_BIND ioctl.
3) Execute push buffers with the new DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_EXEC ioctl.
Both, DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_VM_BIND and DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_EXEC support
asynchronous processing with DRM syncobjs as synchronization mechanism.
The default DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_VM_BIND is synchronous processing,
DRM_IOCTL_NOUVEAU_EXEC supports asynchronous processing only.
