      drm/i915: Check for a stalled page flip after each vblank · d6bbafa1
      Chris Wilson 提交于
      Long ago, back in the racy haydays of 915gm interrupt handling, page
      flips would occasionally go astray and leave the hardware stuck, and the
      display not updating. This annoyed people who relied on their systems
      being able to display continuously updating information 24/7, and so
      some code to detect when the driver missed the page flip completion
      signal was added. Until recently, it was presumed that the interrupt
      handling was now flawless, but once again Simon Farnsworth has found a
      system whose display will stall. Reinstate the pageflip stall detection,
      which works by checking to see if the hardware has been updated to the
      new framebuffer address following each vblank. If the hardware is
      scanning out from the new framebuffer, but we still think the flip is
      pending, then we kick our driver into submision.
      
      This is a continuation of the effort started with
      commit 4e5359cd

          drm/i915: Avoid pageflipping freeze when we miss the flip prepare interrupt
      
      This now includes a belt-and-braces approach to make sure the driver
      (or the hardware) doesn't miss an interrupt and cause us to stop
      updating the display should the unthinkable happen and the pageflip fail - i.e.
      that the user is able to continue submitting flips.
      
      v2: Cleanup, refactor, and rename
      v3: Only start counting vblanks after the flip command has been seen by
          the hardware.
      v4: Record the seqno after we touch the ring, or else there may be no
          seqno allocated yet.
      v5: Rebase on mmio-flip.
      v6: Rebase, rebase.
