All the requests at the same priority are executed in FIFO order. They
do not need to be stored in the rbtree themselves, as they are a simple
list within a level. If we move the requests at one priority into a list,
we can then reduce the rbtree to the set of priorities. This should keep
the height of the rbtree small, as the number of active priorities can not
exceed the number of active requests and should be typically only a few.
Currently, we have ~2k possible different priority levels, that may
increase to allow even more fine grained selection. Allocating those in
advance seems a waste (and may be impossible), so we opt for allocating
upon first use, and freeing after its requests are depleted. To avoid
the possibility of an allocation failure causing us to lose a request,
we preallocate the default priority (0) and bump any request to that
priority if we fail to allocate it the appropriate plist. Having a
request (that is ready to run, so not leading to corruption) execute
out-of-order is better than leaking the request (and its dependency
tree) entirely.
There should be a benefit to reducing execlists_dequeue() to principally
using a simple list (and reducing the frequency of both rbtree iteration
and balancing on erase) but for typical workloads, request coalescing
should be small enough that we don't notice any change. The main gain is
from improving PI calls to schedule, and the explicit list within a
level should make request unwinding simpler (we just need to insert at
the head of the list rather than the tail and not have to make the
rbtree search more complicated).
v2: Avoid use-after-free when deleting a depleted priolist
v3: Michał found the solution to handling the allocation failure
gracefully. If we disable all priority scheduling following the
allocation failure, those requests will be executed in fifo and we will
ensure that this request and its dependencies are in strict fifo (even
when it doesn't realise it is only a single list). Normal scheduling is
restored once we know the device is idle, until the next failure!

A group of Linux kernel hackers reported chasing a bug that resulted
from their assumption that SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU provided an existence
guarantee, that is, that no block from such a slab would be reallocated
during an RCU read-side critical section. Of course, that is not the
case. Instead, SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU only prevents freeing of an entire
slab of blocks.
However, there is a phrase for this, namely "type safety". This commit
therefore renames SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU in order
to avoid future instances of this sort of confusion.

As execlists and other non-semaphore multi-engine devices coordinate
between engines using interrupts, we can shave off a few 10s of
microsecond of scheduling latency by doing the fence signaling from the
interrupt as opposed to a RT kthread. (Realistically the delay adds
about 1% to an individual cross-engine workload.) We only signal the
first fence in order to limit the amount of work we move into the
interrupt handler. We also have to remember that our breadcrumbs may be
unordered with respect to the interrupt and so we still require the
waiter process to perform some heavyweight coherency fixups, as well as
traversing the tree of waiters.

A request is assigned a global seqno only when it is on the hardware
execution queue. The global seqno can be used to maintain a list of
requests on the same engine in retirement order, for example for
constructing a priority queue for waiting. Prior to its execution, or
if it is subsequently removed in the event of preemption, its global
seqno is zero. As both insertion and removal from the execution queue
may operate in IRQ context, it is not guarded by the usual struct_mutex
BKL. Instead those relying on the global seqno must be prepared for its
value to change between reads. Only when the request is complete can
the global seqno be stable (due to the memory barriers on submitting
the commands to the hardware to write the breadcrumb, if the HWS shows
that it has passed the global seqno and the global seqno is unchanged
after the read, it is indeed complete).

Replace the global device seqno with one for each engine, and account
for in-flight seqno on each separately. This is consistent with
dma-fence as each timeline has separate fence-contexts for each engine
and a seqno is only ordered within a fence-context (i.e. seqno do not
need to be ordered wrt to other engines, just ordered within a single
engine). This is required to enable request rewinding for preemption on
individual engines (we have to rewind the global seqno to avoid
overflow, and we do not have to rewind all engines just to preempt one.)

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.

Track the priority of each request and use it to determine the order in
which we submit requests to the hardware via execlists.
The priority of the request is determined by the user (eventually via
the context) but may be overridden at any time by the driver. When we set
the priority of the request, we bump the priority of all of its
dependencies to match - so that a high priority drawing operation is not
stuck behind a background task.
When the request is ready to execute (i.e. we have signaled the submit
fence following completion of all its dependencies, including third
party fences), we put the request into a priority sorted rbtree to be
submitted to the hardware. If the request is higher priority than all
pending requests, it will be submitted on the next context-switch
interrupt as soon as the hardware has completed the current request. We
do not currently preempt any current execution to immediately run a very
high priority request, at least not yet.
One more limitation, is that this is first implementation is for
execlists only so currently limited to gen8/gen9.

The scheduler needs to know the dependencies of each request for the
lifetime of the request, as it may choose to reschedule the requests at
any time and must ensure the dependency tree is not broken. This is in
additional to using the fence to only allow execution after all
dependencies have been completed.
One option was to extend the fence to support the bidirectional
dependency tracking required by the scheduler. However the mismatch in
lifetimes between the submit fence and the request essentially meant
that we had to build a completely separate struct (and we could not
simply reuse the existing waitqueue in the fence for one half of the
dependency tracking). The extra dependency tracking simply did not mesh
well with the fence, and keeping it separate both keeps the fence
implementation simpler and allows us to extend the dependency tracking
into a priority tree (whilst maintaining support for reordering the
tree).
To avoid the additional allocations and list manipulations, the use of
the priotree is disabled when there are no schedulers to use it.

In preparation to support many distinct timelines, we need to expand the
activity tracking on the GEM object to handle more than just a request
per engine. We already use the struct reservation_object on the dma-buf
to handle many fence contexts, so integrating that into the GEM object
itself is the preferred solution. (For example, we can now share the same
reservation_object between every consumer/producer using this buffer and
skip the manual import/export via dma-buf.)
v2: Reimplement busy-ioctl (by walking the reservation object), postpone
the ABI change for another day. Similarly use the reservation object to
find the last_write request (if active and from i915) for choosing
display CS flips.
Caveats:
* busy-ioctl: busy-ioctl only reports on the native fences, it will not
warn of stalls (in set-domain-ioctl, pread/pwrite etc) if the object is
being rendered to by external fences. It also will not report the same
busy state as wait-ioctl (or polling on the dma-buf) in the same
circumstances. On the plus side, it does retain reporting of which
*i915* engines are engaged with this object.
* non-blocking atomic modesets take a step backwards as the wait for
render completion blocks the ioctl. This is fixed in a subsequent
patch to use a fence instead for awaiting on the rendering, see
"drm/i915: Restore nonblocking awaits for modesetting"
* dynamic array manipulation for shared-fences in reservation is slower
than the previous lockless static assignment (e.g. gem_exec_lut_handle
runtime on ivb goes from 42s to 66s), mainly due to atomic operations
(maintaining the fence refcounts).
* loss of object-level retirement callbacks, emulated by VMA retirement
tracking.
* minor loss of object-level last activity information from debugfs,

We will need to wait on DMA completion (as signaled via struct fence)
before executing our i915_gem_request. Therefore we want to expose a
method for adding the await on the fence itself to the request.
v2: Add a comment detailing a failure to handle a signal-on-any
fence-array.
v3: Pretend that magic numbers don't exist.

Now that we have fences in place to drive request submission, we can
employ those to queue requests after their dependencies as opposed to
stalling in the middle of an execbuf ioctl. (However, we still choose to
spin before enabling the IRQ as that is faster - though contentious.)
v2: Do the fence ordering first, where we can still fail.

We are about to specialize object synchronisation to enable nonblocking
execbuf submission. First we make a copy of the current object
synchronisation for execbuffer. The general i915_gem_object_sync() will
be removed following the removal of CS flips in the near future.

Drive final request submission from a callback from the fence. This way
the request is queued until all dependencies are resolved, at which
point it is handed to the backend for queueing to hardware. At this
point, no dependencies are set on the request, so the callback is
immediate.
A side-effect of imposing a heavier-irqsafe spinlock for execlist
submission is that we lose the softirq enabling after scheduling the
execlists tasklet. To compensate, we manually kickstart the softirq by
disabling and enabling the bh around the fence signaling.

In the next patch we want to handle reset directly by a locked waiter in
order to avoid issues with returning before the reset is handled. To
handle the reset, we must first know whether we hold the struct_mutex.
If we do not hold the struct_mtuex we can not perform the reset, but we do
not block the reset worker either (and so we can just continue to wait for
request completion) - otherwise we must relinquish the mutex.

Emulate HW to track and manage ELSP queue. A set of SW ports are defined
and requests are assigned to these ports before submitting them to HW. This
helps in cleaning up incomplete requests during reset recovery easier
especially after engine reset by decoupling elsp queue management. This
will become more clear in the next patch.
In the engine reset case we want to resume where we left-off after skipping
the incomplete batch which requires checking the elsp queue, removing
element and fixing elsp_submitted counts in some cases. Instead of directly
manipulating the elsp queue from reset path we can examine these ports, fix
up ringbuffer pointers using the incomplete request and restart submissions
again after reset.

This issue here is (I think) purely theoretical, since a compiler
would need to be especially foolish to recompute the value of
i915_gem_request_completed right after it was already used. Hence the
additional barrier() is also not really a restriction.
But I believe this to be at least permissible, and since our rcu
trickery is a beast it's worth to annotate all the corner cases.
Chris proposed to instead just wrap a READ_ONCE around
request->fence.seqno in i915_gem_request_completed. But that has a
measurable impact on code size, and everywhere we hold a full
reference to the underlying request it's also not needed. And
personally I'd like to have just enough barriers and locking needed
for correctness, but not more - it makes it much easier in the future
to understand what's going on.
Since the busy ioctl has now fully embraced it's races there's no
point annotating it there too. We really only need it in
active_get_rcu, since that function _must_ deliver a correct snapshot
of the active fences (and not chase something else).
v2: Polish the comment a bit more (Chris).

Since contexts are not currently shared between userspace processes, we
have an exact correspondence between context creator and guilty batch
submitter. Therefore we can save some per-batch work by inspecting the
context->pid upon error instead. Note that we take the context's
creator's pid rather than the file's pid in order to better track fd
passed over sockets.

Treat the VMA as the primary struct responsible for tracking bindings
into the GPU's VM. That is we want to treat the VMA returned after we
pin an object into the VM as the cookie we hold and eventually release
when unpinning. Doing so eliminates the ambiguity in pinning the object
and then searching for the relevant pin later.

When using RCU lookup for the request, commit 0eafec6d32 ("drm/i915:
Enable lockless lookup of request tracking via RCU"), we acknowledge that
we may race with another thread that could have reallocated the request.
In order for the first thread not to blow up, the second thread must not
clear the request completed before overwriting it. In the RCU lookup, we
allow for the engine/seqno to be replaced but we do not allow for it to
be zeroed.
The choice we make is to either add extra checking to the RCU lookup, or
embrace the inherent races (as intended). It is more complicated as we
need to manually clear everything we depend upon being zero initialised,
but we benefit from not emiting the memset() to clear the entire
frequently allocated structure (that memset turns up in throughput
profiles). And at the same time, the lookup remains flexible for future
adjustments.
v2: Old style LRC requires another variable to be initialize. (The
danger inherent in not zeroing everything.)
v3: request->batch also needs to be cleared
v4: signaling.tsk is no long used unset, but pid still exists

The principal motivation for this was to try and eliminate the
struct_mutex from i915_gem_suspend - but we still need to hold the mutex
current for the i915_gem_context_lost(). (The issue there is that there
may be an indirect lockdep cycle between cpu_hotplug (i.e. suspend) and
struct_mutex via the stop_machine().) For the moment, enabling last
request tracking for the engine, allows us to do busyness checking and
waiting without requiring the struct_mutex - which is useful in its own
right.
As a side-effect of having a robust means for tracking engine busyness,
we can replace our other busyness heuristic, that of comparing against
the last submitted seqno. For paranoid reasons, we have a semi-ordered
check of that seqno inside the hangchecker, which we can now improve to
an ordered check of the engine's busyness (removing a locked xchg in the
process).
v2: Pass along "bool interruptible" as being unlocked we cannot rely on
i915->mm.interruptible being stable or even under our control.

It is useful to be able to wait on pending rendering without grabbing
the struct_mutex. We can do this by using the i915_gem_active_get_rcu()
primitive to acquire a reference to the pending request without
requiring struct_mutex, just the RCU read lock, and then call
i915_wait_request().
v2: Rebase onto new i915_gem_active_get_unlocked() semantics that take
the RCU read lock on behalf of the caller.

If we enable RCU for the requests (providing a grace period where we can
inspect a "dead" request before it is freed), we can allow callers to
carefully perform lockless lookup of an active request.
However, by enabling deferred freeing of requests, we can potentially
hog a lot of memory when dealing with tens of thousands of requests per
second - with a quick insertion of a synchronize_rcu() inside our
shrinker callback, that issue disappears.
v2: Currently, it is our responsibility to handle reclaim i.e. to avoid
hogging memory with the delayed slab frees. At the moment, we wait for a
grace period in the shrinker, and block for all RCU callbacks on oom.
Suggested alternatives focus on flushing our RCU callback when we have a
certain number of outstanding request frees, and blocking on that flush
after a second high watermark. (So rather than wait for the system to
run out of memory, we stop issuing requests - both are nondeterministic.)
Paul E. McKenney wrote:
Another approach is synchronize_rcu() after some largish number of
requests. The advantage of this approach is that it throttles the
production of callbacks at the source. The corresponding disadvantage
is that it slows things up.
Another approach is to use call_rcu(), but if the previous call_rcu()
is still in flight, block waiting for it. Yet another approach is
the get_state_synchronize_rcu() / cond_synchronize_rcu() pair. The
idea is to do something like this:
cond_synchronize_rcu(cookie);
cookie = get_state_synchronize_rcu();
You would of course do an initial get_state_synchronize_rcu() to
get things going. This would not block unless there was less than
one grace period's worth of time between invocations. But this
assumes a busy system, where there is almost always a grace period
in flight. But you can make that happen as follows:
cond_synchronize_rcu(cookie);
cookie = get_state_synchronize_rcu();
call_rcu(&my_rcu_head, noop_function);
Note that you need additional code to make sure that the old callback
has completed before doing a new one. Setting and clearing a flag
with appropriate memory ordering control suffices (e.g,. smp_load_acquire()
and smp_store_release()).
v3: More comments on compiler and processor order of operations within
the RCU lookup and discover we can use rcu_access_pointer() here instead.
v4: Wrap i915_gem_active_get_rcu() to take the rcu_read_lock itself.

By tracking each request occupying space inside an individual
intel_ring, we can greatly simplify the logic of tracking available
space and not worry about other timelines. (Each ring is an ordered
timeline of committed requests.)
