WAIT is occasionally suppressed by virtue of preempted requests being promoted to NEWCLIENT if they have not all ready received that boost. Make this consistent for all WAIT boosts that they are not allowed to preempt executing contexts and are merely granted the right to be at the front of the queue for the next execution slot. This is in keeping with the desire that the WAIT boost be a minor tweak that does not give excessive promotion to its user and open ourselves to trivial abuse. The problem with the inconsistent WAIT preemption becomes more apparent as the preemption is propagated across the engines, where one engine may preempt and the other not, and we be relying on the exact execution order being consistent across engines (e.g. using HW semaphores to coordinate parallel execution). v2: Also protect GuC submission from false preemption loops. v3: Build bug safeguards and better debug messages for st. v4: Do the priority bumping in unsubmit (i.e. on preemption/reset unwind), applying it earlier during submit causes out-of-order execution combined with execute fences. v5: Call sw_fence_fini for our dummy request (Matthew) Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com> Cc: Matthew Auld <matthew.auld@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20190228220639.3173-1-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk
