drm/i915: Reset request handling for gen8+
In order for gen8+ hardware to guarantee that no context switch takes place during engine reset and that current context is properly saved, the driver needs to notify and query hw before commencing with reset. There are gpu hangs where the engine gets so stuck that it never will report to be ready for reset. We could proceed with reset anyway, but with some hangs with skl, the forced gpu reset will result in a system hang. By inspecting the unreadiness for reset seems to correlate with the probable system hang. We will only proceed with reset if all engines report that they are ready for reset. If root cause for system hang is found and can be worked around with another means, we can reconsider if we can reinstate full reset for unreadiness case. v2: -EIO, Recovery, gen8 (Chris, Tomas, Daniel) v3: updated commit msg v4: timeout_ms, simpler error path (Chris) References: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89959 References: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90854 Testcase: igt/gem_concurrent_blit/prw-blt-overwrite-source-read-rcs-forked Testcase: igt/gem_concurrent_blit/gtt-blt-overwrite-source-read-rcs-forked Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Cc: Tomas Elf <tomas.elf@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>
