drm/i915: Use fallback forcewake if primary ack missing
There is a possibility on gen9 hardware to miss the forcewake ack message. The recommended workaround is to use another free bit and toggle it until original bit is successfully acknowledged. Some future gen9 revs might or might not fix the underlying issue but using fallback forcewake bit dance can be considered as harmless: without the ack timeout we never reach the fallback bit forcewake. Thus as of now we adopt a blanket approach for all gen9 and leave the bypassing the fallback bit approach for future patches if corresponding hw revisions do appear. Commit 83e33372 ("drm/i915: Increase maximum polling time to 50ms for forcewake request/clear ack") did increase the forcewake timeout. If the issue was a delayed ack, future work could include finding a suitable timeout value both for primary ack and reserve toggle to reduce the worst case latency. v2: use bit 15, naming, comment (Chris), only wait fallback ack v3: fix return on fallback, backoff after fallback write (Chris) v4: udelay on first pass, grammar (Chris) v4: s/reserve/fallback References: HSDES #1604254524 References: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102051 Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com> Cc: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com> Cc: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Sagar Arun Kamble <sagar.a.kamble@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20171102094836.2506-1-mika.kuoppala@linux.intel.com
