After Joonas complained about using READ_ONCE() on the only use of the variable in the function, where the intent was to simply document that the read was intentionally racy and unlocked, I switched the READ_ONCE() over to lockless_dereference(). However, in linux-next that has a stronger type-check to only allow pointers and is no longer interchangeable with READ_ONCE(), see commit 331b6d8c ("locking/barriers: Validate lockless_dereference() is used on a pointer type") Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Fixes: 67d97da3 ("drm/i915: Only start retire worker when idle") Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/1467705276-707-1-git-send-email-chris@chris-wilson.co.ukReviewed-by: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@intel.com>

Some IS_ and HAS_ macros can return any non-zero value for true. One potential problem with that is that someone could assign them to integers and be surprised with the result. Therefore it is probably safer to do the conversion to 0/1 in the macros themselves. Luckily this does not seem to have an effect on code size. Only one call site was getting bit by this and a patch for that has been sent as "drm/i915/guc: Protect against HAS_GUC_* returning true values other than one". v2: Added some extra braces as suggested by checkpatch.

igt likes to inject GPU hangs into its command streams. However, as we expect these hangs, we don't actually want them recorded in the dmesg output or stored in the i915_error_state (usually). To accommodate this allow userspace to set a flag on the context that any hang emanating from that context will not be recorded. We still do the error capture (otherwise how do we find the guilty context and know its intent?) as part of the reason for random GPU hang injection is to exercise the race conditions between the error capture and normal execution. v2: Split out the request->ringbuf error capture changes. v3: Move the flag defines next to the intel_context->flags definition Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Reviewed-by: Dave Gordon <david.s.gordon@intel.com> Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/1467616119-4093-9-git-send-email-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk

The request tells us where to read the ringbuf from, so use that information to simplify the error capture. If no request was active at the time of the hang, the ring is idle and there is no information inside the ring pertaining to the hang. Note carefully that this will reduce the amount of information stored in the error state - any ring without an active request will not be recorded.

Make sure that the RPS bottom-half is flushed before we set the idle frequency when we decide the GPU is idle. This should prevent any races with the bottom-half and setting the idle frequency, and ensures that the bottom-half is bounded by the GPU's rpm reference taken for when it is active (i.e. between gen6_rps_busy() and gen6_rps_idle()). v2: Avoid recursively using the i915->wq - RPS does not touch the struct_mutex so has no place being on the ordered i915->wq. v3: Enable/disable interrupts for RPS busy/idle in order to prevent further HW access from RPS outside of the wakeref.

Ideally, we want to automagically have the GPU respond to the instantaneous load by reclocking itself. However, reclocking occurs relatively slowly, and to the client waiting for a result from the GPU, too late. To compensate and reduce the client latency, we allow the first wait from a client to boost the GPU clocks to maximum. This overcomes the lag in autoreclocking, at the expense of forcing the GPU clocks too high. So to offset the excessive power usage, we currently allow a client to only boost the clocks once before we detect the GPU is idle again. This works reasonably for say the first frame in a benchmark, but for many more synchronous workloads (like OpenCL) we find the GPU clocks remain too low. By noting a wait which would idle the GPU (i.e. we just waited upon the last known request), we can give that client the idle boost credit (for their next wait) without the 100ms delay required for us to detect the GPU idle state. The intention is to boost clients that are stalling in the process of feeding the GPU more work (and who in doing so let the GPU idle), without granting boost credits to clients that are throttling themselves (such as compositors).

Rather than persistently postponing the idle-work everytime somebody calls i915_gem_retire_requests() (potentially ensuring that we never reach the idle state), queue the work the first time we detect all requests are complete. Then if in 100ms, more requests have been queued, we will abort the idle-worker and wait again until all the new requests have been completed. Of course, this does depend upon the idle worker cancelling itself gracefully from the previous patch.

The retire worker is a low frequency task that makes sure we retire outstanding requests if userspace is being lax. We only need to start it once as it remains active until the GPU is idle, so do a cheap test before the more expensive queue_work(). A consequence of this is that we need correct locking in the worker to make the hot path of request submission cheap. To keep the symmetry and keep hangcheck strictly bound by the GPU's wakelock, we move the cancel_sync(hangcheck) to the idle worker before dropping the wakelock. v2: Guard against RCU fouling the breadcrumbs bottom-half whilst we kick the waiter. v3: Remove the wakeref assertion squelching (now we hold a wakeref for the hangcheck, any rpm error there is genuine). v4: To prevent excess work when retiring requests, we split the busy flag into two, a boolean to denote whether we hold the wakeref and a bitmask of active engines. v5: Reorder cancelling hangcheck upon idling to avoid a race where we might cancel a hangcheck after being preempted by a new task Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> References: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88437Reviewed-by: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/1467616119-4093-1-git-send-email-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk

Since the tests can and do explicitly check debugfs/i915_ring_missed_irqs for the handling of a "missed interrupt", adding it to the dmesg at INFO is just noise. When it happens for real, we still class it as an ERROR. Note that I have chose to remove it entirely because when we detect the "missed interrupt" is irrelevant and the message contains no more information than we glean from looking in debugfs.

If we convert the tracing over from direct use of ring->irq_get() and over to the breadcrumb infrastructure, we only have a single user of the ring->irq_get and so we will be able to simplify the driver routines (eliminating the redundant validation and irq refcounting). Process context is preferred over softirq (or even hardirq) for a couple of reasons: - we already utilize process context to have fast wakeup of a single client (i.e. the client waiting for the GPU inspects the seqno for itself following an interrupt to avoid the overhead of a context switch before it returns to userspace) - engine->irq_seqno() is not suitable for use from an softirq/hardirq context as we may require long waits (100-250us) to ensure the seqno write is posted before we read it from the CPU A signaling framework is a requirement for enabling dma-fences. v2: Move to a signaling framework based upon the waiter. v3: Track the first-signal to avoid having to walk the rbtree everytime. v4: Mark the signaler thread as RT priority to reduce latency in the indirect wakeups. v5: Make failure to allocate the thread fatal. v6: Rename kthreads to i915/signal:%u Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Reviewed-by: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com> Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/1467390209-3576-16-git-send-email-chris@chris-wilson.co.uk

We have testcases to ensure that seqno wraparound works fine, so we can forgo forcing everyone to encounter seqno wraparound during early uptime. seqno wraparound incurs a full GPU stall so not forcing it will eliminate one jitter from the early system. Using the testcases, we have very deterministic testing which given how difficult it would be to debug an issue (GPU hang) stemming from a wraparound using pure postmortem analysis I see no value in forcing a wrap during boot. Advancing the global next_seqno after a GPU reset is equally pointless.

On Ironlake, there is no command nor register to ensure that the write from a MI_STORE command is completed (and coherent on the CPU) before the command parser continues. This means that the ordering between the seqno write and the subsequent user interrupt is undefined (like gen6+). So to ensure that the seqno write is completed after the final user interrupt we need to delay the read sufficiently to allow the write to complete. This delay is undefined by the bspec, and empirically requires 75us even though a register read combined with a clflush is less than 500ns. Hence, the delay is due to an on-chip buffer rather than the latency of the write to memory. Note that the render ring controls this by filling the PIPE_CONTROL fifo with stalling commands that force the earliest pipe-control with the seqno to be completed before the command parser continues. Given that we need a barrier operation for BSD, we may as well forgo the extra per-batch latency by using a common per-interrupt barrier. Studying the impact of adding the usleep shows that in both sequences of and individual synchronous no-op batches is negligible for the media engine (where the write now is unordered with the interrupt). Converting the render engine over from the current glutton of pie-controls over to the per-interrupt delays speeds up both the sequential and individual synchronous no-ops by 20% and 60%, respectively. This speed up holds even when looking at the throughput of small copies (4KiB->4MiB), both serial and synchronous, by about 20%. This is because despite adding a significant delay to the interrupt, in all likelihood we will see the seqno write without having to apply the barrier (only in the rare corner cases where the write is delayed on the last required is the delay necessary).
