      drm/i915: Serialise i915_active_fence_set() with itself · df9f85d8
      由 Chris Wilson 提交于 
      The expected downside to commit 58b4c1a0 ("drm/i915: Reduce nested
prepare_remote_context() to a trylock") was that it would need to return
-EAGAIN to userspace in order to resolve potential mutex inversion. Such
an unsightly round trip is unnecessary if we could atomically insert a
barrier into the i915_active_fence, so make it happen.

Currently, we use the timeline->mutex (or some other named outer lock)
to order insertion into the i915_active_fence (and so individual nodes
of i915_active). Inside __i915_active_fence_set, we only need then
serialise with the interrupt handler in order to claim the timeline for
ourselves.

However, if we remove the outer lock, we need to ensure the order is
intact between not only multiple threads trying to insert themselves
into the timeline, but also with the interrupt handler completing the
previous occupant. We use xchg() on insert so that we have an ordered
sequence of insertions (and each caller knows the previous fence on
which to wait, preserving the chain of all fences in the timeline), but
we then have to cmpxchg() in the interrupt handler to avoid overwriting
the new occupant. The only nasty side-effect is having to temporarily
strip off the RCU-annotations to apply the atomic operations, otherwise
the rules are much more conventional!

      drm/i915: Mark i915_request.timeline as a volatile, rcu pointer · d19d71fc
      由 Chris Wilson 提交于 
      The request->timeline is only valid until the request is retired (i.e.
before it is completed). Upon retiring the request, the context may be
unpinned and freed, and along with it the timeline may be freed. We
therefore need to be very careful when chasing rq->timeline that the
pointer does not disappear beneath us. The vast majority of users are in
a protected context, either during request construction or retirement,
where the timeline->mutex is held and the timeline cannot disappear. It
is those few off the beaten path (where we access a second timeline) that
need extra scrutiny -- to be added in the next patch after first adding
the warnings about dangerous access.

One complication, where we cannot use the timeline->mutex itself, is
during request submission onto hardware (under spinlocks). Here, we want
to check on the timeline to finalize the breadcrumb, and so we need to
impose a second rule to ensure that the request->timeline is indeed
valid. As we are submitting the request, it's context and timeline must
be pinned, as it will be used by the hardware. Since it is pinned, we
know the request->timeline must still be valid, and we cannot submit the
idle barrier until after we release the engine->active.lock, ergo while
submitting and holding that spinlock, a second thread cannot release the
timeline.

v2: Don't be lazy inside selftests; hold the timeline->mutex for as long
as we need it, and tidy up acquiring the timeline with a bit of
refactoring (i915_active_add_request)

      drm/i915: Hide unshrinkable context objects from the shrinker · 1aff1903
      由 Chris Wilson 提交于 
      The shrinker cannot touch objects used by the contexts (logical state
and ring). Currently we mark those as "pin_global" to let the shrinker
skip over them, however, if we remove them from the shrinker lists
entirely, we don't event have to include them in our shrink accounting.

By keeping the unshrinkable objects in our shrinker tracking, we report
a large number of objects available to be shrunk, and leave the shrinker
deeply unsatisfied when we fail to reclaim those. The shrinker will
persist in trying to reclaim the unavailable objects, forcing the system
into a livelock (not even hitting the dread oomkiller).

v2: Extend unshrinkable protection for perma-pinned scratch and guc
allocations (Tvrtko)
v3: Notice that we should be pinned when marking unshrinkable and so the

      drm/i915: Make the semaphore saturation mask global · 44d89409
      由 Chris Wilson 提交于 
      The idea behind keeping the saturation mask local to a context backfired
spectacularly. The premise with the local mask was that we would be more
proactive in attempting to use semaphores after each time the context
idled, and that all new contexts would attempt to use semaphores
ignoring the current state of the system. This turns out to be horribly
optimistic. If the system state is still oversaturated and the existing
workloads have all stopped using semaphores, the new workloads would
attempt to use semaphores and be deprioritised behind real work. The
new contexts would not switch off using semaphores until their initial
batch of low priority work had completed. Given sufficient backload load
of equal user priority, this would completely starve the new work of any
GPU time.

To compensate, remove the local tracking in favour of keeping it as
global state on the engine -- once the system is saturated and
semaphores are disabled, everyone stops attempting to use semaphores
until the system is idle again. One of the reason for preferring local
context tracking was that it worked with virtual engines, so for
switching to global state we could either do a complete check of all the
virtual siblings or simply disable semaphores for those requests. This
takes the simpler approach of disabling semaphores on virtual engines.

The downside is that the decision that the engine is saturated is a
local measure -- we are only checking whether or not this context was
scheduled in a timely fashion, it may be legitimately delayed due to user
priorities. We still have the same dilemma though, that we do not want
to employ the semaphore poll unless it will be used.

v2: Explain why we need to assume the worst wrt virtual engines.

      drm/i915: Keep contexts pinned until after the next kernel context switch · ce476c80
      由 Chris Wilson 提交于 
      We need to keep the context image pinned in memory until after the GPU
has finished writing into it. Since it continues to write as we signal
the final breadcrumb, we need to keep it pinned until the request after
it is complete. Currently we know the order in which requests execute on
each engine, and so to remove that presumption we need to identify a
request/context-switch we know must occur after our completion. Any
request queued after the signal must imply a context switch, for
simplicity we use a fresh request from the kernel context.

The sequence of operations for keeping the context pinned until saved is:

 - On context activation, we preallocate a node for each physical engine
   the context may operate on. This is to avoid allocations during
   unpinning, which may be from inside FS_RECLAIM context (aka the
   shrinker)

 - On context deactivation on retirement of the last active request (which
   is before we know the context has been saved), we add the
   preallocated node onto a barrier list on each engine

 - On engine idling, we emit a switch to kernel context. When this
   switch completes, we know that all previous contexts must have been
   saved, and so on retiring this request we can finally unpin all the
   contexts that were marked as deactivated prior to the switch.

We can enhance this in future by flushing all the idle contexts on a
regular heartbeat pulse of a switch to kernel context, which will also
be used to check for hung engines.

      drm/i915: Disable semaphore busywaits on saturated systems · ca6e56f6
      由 Chris Wilson 提交于 
      Asking the GPU to busywait on a memory address, perhaps not unexpectedly
in hindsight for a shared system, leads to bus contention that affects
CPU programs trying to concurrently access memory. This can manifest as
a drop in transcode throughput on highly over-saturated workloads.

The only clue offered by perf, is that the bus-cycles (perf stat -e
bus-cycles) jumped by 50% when enabling semaphores. This corresponds
with extra CPU active cycles being attributed to intel_idle's mwait.

This patch introduces a heuristic to try and detect when more than one
client is submitting to the GPU pushing it into an oversaturated state.
As we already keep track of when the semaphores are signaled, we can
inspect their state on submitting the busywait batch and if we planned
to use a semaphore but were too late, conclude that the GPU is
overloaded and not try to use semaphores in future requests. In
practice, this means we optimistically try to use semaphores for the
first frame of a transcode job split over multiple engines, and fail if
there are multiple clients active and continue not to use semaphores for
the subsequent frames in the sequence. Periodically, we try to
optimistically switch semaphores back on whenever the client waits to
catch up with the transcode results.

Indicating that we've recovered the regression from enabling semaphores
on this saturated setup, with a hint towards an overall improvement.

Very similar, but of smaller magnitude, results are observed on both
Skylake(gt2) and Kabylake(gt4). This may be due to the reduced impact of
bus-cycles, where we see a 50% hit on Broxton, it is only 10% on the big
core, in this particular test.

One observation to make here is that for a greedy client trying to
maximise its own throughput, using semaphores is the right choice. It is
only the holistic system-wide view that semaphores of one client
impacts another and reduces the overall throughput where we would choose
to disable semaphores.

The most noticeable negactive impact this has is on the no-op
microbenchmarks, which are also very notable for having no cpu bus load.
In particular, this increases the runtime and energy consumption of
gem_exec_whisper.

      drm/i915: Invert the GEM wakeref hierarchy · 79ffac85
      由 Chris Wilson 提交于 
      In the current scheme, on submitting a request we take a single global
GEM wakeref, which trickles down to wake up all GT power domains. This
is undesirable as we would like to be able to localise our power
management to the available power domains and to remove the global GEM
operations from the heart of the driver. (The intent there is to push
global GEM decisions to the boundary as used by the GEM user interface.)

Now during request construction, each request is responsible via its
logical context to acquire a wakeref on each power domain it intends to
utilize. Currently, each request takes a wakeref on the engine(s) and
the engines themselves take a chipset wakeref. This gives us a
transition on each engine which we can extend if we want to insert more
powermangement control (such as soft rc6). The global GEM operations
that currently require a struct_mutex are reduced to listening to pm
events from the chipset GT wakeref. As we reduce the struct_mutex
requirement, these listeners should evaporate.

Perhaps the biggest immediate change is that this removes the
struct_mutex requirement around GT power management, allowing us greater
flexibility in request construction. Another important knock-on effect,
is that by tracking engine usage, we can insert a switch back to the
kernel context on that engine immediately, avoiding any extra delay or
inserting global synchronisation barriers. This makes tracking when an
engine and its associated contexts are idle much easier -- important for
when we forgo our assumed execution ordering and need idle barriers to
unpin used contexts. In the process, it means we remove a large chunk of
code whose only purpose was to switch back to the kernel context.

      drm/i915: Introduce context->enter() and context->exit() · 6eee33e8
      由 Chris Wilson 提交于 
      We wish to start segregating the power management into different control
domains, both with respect to the hardware and the user interface. The
first step is that at the lowest level flow of requests, we want to
process a context event (and not a global GEM operation). In this patch,
we introduce the context callbacks that in future patches will be
redirected to per-engine interfaces leading to global operations as
required.

The intent is that this will be guarded by the timeline->mutex, except
that retiring has not quite finished transitioning over from being
guarded by struct_mutex. So at the moment it is protected by
struct_mutex with a reminded to switch.

v2: Rename default handlers to intel_context_enter_engine.

      drm/i915: Move GraphicsTechnology files under gt/ · 112ed2d3
      由 Chris Wilson 提交于 
      Start partitioning off the code that talks to the hardware (GT) from the
uapi layers and move the device facing code under gt/

One casualty is s/intel_ringbuffer.h/intel_engine.h/ with the plan to
subdivide that header and body further (and split out the submission
code from the ringbuffer and logical context handling). This patch aims
to be simple motion so git can fixup inflight patches with little mess.
