      drm/kms/radeon: Add support for precise vblank timestamping. · f5a80209
      Mario Kleiner authored 
      This patch adds new functions for use by the drm core:

.get_vblank_timestamp() provides a precise timestamp
for the end of the most recent (or current) vblank
interval of a given crtc, as needed for the DRI2
implementation of the OML_sync_control extension.

It is a thin wrapper around the drm function
drm_calc_vbltimestamp_from_scanoutpos() which does
almost all the work and is shared across drivers.

.get_scanout_position() provides the current horizontal
and vertical video scanout position and "in vblank"
status of a given crtc, as needed by the drm for use by
drm_calc_vbltimestamp_from_scanoutpos().

The function is also used by the dynamic gpu reclocking
code to determine when it is safe to reclock inside vblank.

For that purpose radeon_pm_in_vbl() is modified to
accomodate a small change in the function prototype of
the radeon_get_crtc_scanoutpos() which is hooked up to
.get_scanout_position().

This code has been tested on AVIVO hardware, a RV530
(ATI Mobility Radeon X1600) in a Intel Core-2 Duo MacBookPro
and some R600 variant (FireGL V7600) in a single cpu
AMD Athlon 64 PC.

      drm/vblank: Add support for precise vblank timestamping. · 27641c3f
      Mario Kleiner authored 
      The DRI2 swap & sync implementation needs precise
vblank counts and precise timestamps corresponding
to those vblank counts. For conformance to the OpenML
OML_sync_control extension specification the DRM
timestamp associated with a vblank count should
correspond to the start of video scanout of the first
scanline of the video frame following the vblank
interval for that vblank count.

Therefore we need to carry around precise timestamps
for vblanks. Currently the DRM and KMS drivers generate
timestamps ad-hoc via do_gettimeofday() in some
places. The resulting timestamps are sometimes not
very precise due to interrupt handling delays, they
don't conform to OML_sync_control and some are wrong,
as they aren't taken synchronized to the vblank.

This patch implements support inside the drm core
for precise and robust timestamping. It consists
of the following interrelated pieces.

1. Vblank timestamp caching:

A per-crtc ringbuffer stores the most recent vblank
timestamps corresponding to vblank counts.

The ringbuffer can be read out lock-free via the
accessor function:

struct timeval timestamp;
vblankcount = drm_vblank_count_and_time(dev, crtcid, &timestamp).

The function returns the current vblank count and
the corresponding timestamp for start of video
scanout following the vblank interval. It can be
used anywhere between enclosing drm_vblank_get(dev, crtcid)
and drm_vblank_put(dev,crtcid) statements. It is used
inside the drmWaitVblank ioctl and in the vblank event
queueing and handling. It should be used by kms drivers for
timestamping of bufferswap completion.

The timestamp ringbuffer is reinitialized each time
vblank irq's get reenabled in drm_vblank_get()/
drm_update_vblank_count(). It is invalidated when
vblank irq's get disabled.

The ringbuffer is updated inside drm_handle_vblank()
at each vblank irq.

2. Calculation of precise vblank timestamps:

drm_get_last_vbltimestamp() is used to compute the
timestamp for the end of the most recent vblank (if
inside active scanout), or the expected end of the
current vblank interval (if called inside a vblank
interval). The function calls into a new optional kms
driver entry point dev->driver->get_vblank_timestamp()
which is supposed to provide the precise timestamp.
If a kms driver doesn't implement the entry point or
if the call fails, a simple do_gettimeofday() timestamp
is returned as crude approximation of the true vblank time.

A new drm module parameter drm.timestamp_precision_usec
allows to disable high precision timestamps (if set to
zero) or to specify the maximum acceptable error in
the timestamps in microseconds.

Kms drivers could implement their get_vblank_timestamp()
function in a gpu specific way, as long as returned
timestamps conform to OML_sync_control, e.g., by use
of gpu specific hardware timestamps.

Optionally, kms drivers can simply wrap and use the new
utility function drm_calc_vbltimestamp_from_scanoutpos().
This function calls a new optional kms driver function
dev->driver->get_scanout_position() which returns the
current horizontal and vertical video scanout position
of the crtc. The scanout position together with the
drm_display_timing of the current video mode is used
to calculate elapsed time relative to start of active scanout
for the current video frame. This elapsed time is subtracted
from the current do_gettimeofday() time to get the timestamp
corresponding to start of video scanout. Currently
non-interlaced, non-doublescan video modes, with or
without panel scaling are handled correctly. Interlaced/
doublescan modes are tbd in a future patch.

3. Filtering of redundant vblank irq's and removal of
some race-conditions in the vblank irq enable/disable path:

Some gpu's (e.g., Radeon R500/R600) send spurious vblank
irq's outside the vblank if vblank irq's get reenabled.
These get detected by use of the vblank timestamps and
filtered out to avoid miscounting of vblanks.

Some race-conditions between the vblank irq enable/disable
functions, the vblank irq handler and the gpu itself (updating
its hardware vblank counter in the "wrong" moment) are
fixed inside vblank_disable_and_save() and
drm_update_vblank_count() by use of the vblank timestamps and
a new spinlock dev->vblank_time_lock.

The time until vblank irq disable is now configurable via
a new drm module parameter drm.vblankoffdelay to allow
experimentation with timeouts that are much shorter than
the current 5 seconds and should allow longer vblank off
periods for better power savings.

Followup patches will use these new functions to
implement precise timestamping for the intel and radeon
kms drivers.

      ext4: Add EXT4_IOC_TRIM ioctl to handle batched discard · e681c047
      Lukas Czerner authored 
      Filesystem independent ioctl was rejected as not common enough to be in
core vfs ioctl. Since we still need to access to this functionality this
commit adds ext4 specific ioctl EXT4_IOC_TRIM to dispatch
ext4_trim_fs().

It takes fstrim_range structure as an argument. fstrim_range is definec in
the include/linux/fs.h and its definition is as follows.

struct fstrim_range {
	__u64 start;
	__u64 len;
	__u64 minlen;
}

start	- first Byte to trim
len	- number of Bytes to trim from start
minlen	- minimum extent length to trim, free extents shorter than this
  number of Bytes will be ignored. This will be rounded up to fs
  block size.

After the FITRIM is done, the number of actually discarded Bytes is stored
in fstrim_range.len to give the user better insight on how much storage
space has been really released for wear-leveling.

      fs: Do not dispatch FITRIM through separate super_operation · 93bb41f4
      Lukas Czerner authored 
      There was concern that FITRIM ioctl is not common enough to be included
in core vfs ioctl, as Christoph Hellwig pointed out there's no real point
in dispatching this out to a separate vector instead of just through
->ioctl.

So this commit removes ioctl_fstrim() from vfs ioctl and trim_fs
from super_operation structure.
