      drm/i915: Unify active context tracking between legacy/execlists/guc · e8a9c58f
      Chris Wilson 提交于
      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.
