We should serialise access to the intel_crtc->unpin_work through the dev->event_lock spinlock. It should not be possible for it to disappear without severe error as the mmio_flip worker has not tagged the unpin_work pending flip-completion. Similarly if the error exists, just taking the unpin_work whilst holding the spinlock and then using it unserialised just masks the race. (It is supposed to be valid as the unpin_work exists until the flip completion interrupt which should not fire until we flush the mmio writes to update the display base which is the last time we access the unpin_work from the kthread.)

When submitting semaphores in execlist mode the hang checker crashes in this function because it is only runnable in ring submission mode. The reason this is of particular interest to the TDR patch series is because we use semaphores as a mean to induce hangs during testing (which is the recommended way to induce hangs for gen8+). It's not clear how this is supposed to work in execlist mode since: 1. This function requires a ring buffer. 2. Retrieving a ring buffer in execlist mode requires us to retrieve the corresponding context, which we get from a request. 3. Retieving a request from the hang checker is not straight-forward since that requires us to grab the struct_mutex in order to synchronize against the request retirement thread. 4. Grabbing the struct_mutex from the hang checker is nothing that we will do since that puts us at risk of deadlock since a hung thread might be holding the struct_mutex already. Therefore it's not obvious how we're supposed to deal with this. For now, we're doing an early exit from this function, which avoids any kernel panic situation when running our own internal TDR ULT. * v2: (Chris Wilson) Turned the execlist mode check into a ringbuffer NULL check to make it more submission mode agnostic and less of a layering violation.

There isn't an explicit stolen memory base register on gen2. Some old comment in the i915 code suggests we should get it via max_low_pfn_mapped, but that's clearly a bad idea on my MGM. The e820 map in said machine looks like this: [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000000009f7ff] usable [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x000000000009f800-0x000000000009ffff] reserved [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000000ce000-0x00000000000cffff] reserved [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000000dc000-0x00000000000fffff] reserved [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000100000-0x000000001f6effff] usable [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x000000001f6f0000-0x000000001f6f7fff] ACPI data [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x000000001f6f8000-0x000000001f6fffff] ACPI NVS [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x000000001f700000-0x000000001fffffff] reserved [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000fec10000-0x00000000fec1ffff] reserved [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000ffb00000-0x00000000ffbfffff] reserved [ 0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000fff00000-0x00000000ffffffff] reserved That makes max_low_pfn_mapped = 1f6f0000, so assuming our stolen memory would start there would place it on top of some ACPI memory regions. So not a good idea as already stated. The 9MB region after the ACPI regions at 0x1f700000 however looks promising given that the macine reports the stolen memory size to be 8MB. Looking at the PGTBL_CTL register, the GTT entries are at offset 0x1fee00000, and given that the GTT entries occupy 128KB, it looks like the stolen memory could start at 0x1f700000 and the GTT entries would occupy the last 128KB of the stolen memory. After some more digging through chipset documentation, I've determined the BIOS first allocates space for something called TSEG (something to do with SMM) from the top of memory, and then it allocates the graphics stolen memory below that. Accordind to the chipset documentation TSEG has a fixed size of 1MB on 855. So that explains the top 1MB in the e820 region. And it also confirms that the GTT entries are in fact at the end of the the stolen memory region. Derive the stolen memory base address on gen2 the same as the BIOS does (TOM-TSEG_SIZE-stolen_size). There are a few differences between the registers on various gen2 chipsets, so a few different codepaths are required. 865G is again bit more special since it seems to support enough memory to hit 4GB address space issues. This means the PCI allocations will also affect the location of the stolen memory. Fortunately there appears to be the TOUD register which may give us the correct answer directly. But the chipset docs are a bit unclear, so I'm not 100% sure that the graphics stolen memory is always the last thing the BIOS steals. Someone would need to verify it on a real system. I tested this on the my 830 and 855 machines, and so far everything looks peachy. v2: Rewrite to use the TOM-TSEG_SIZE-stolen_size and TOUD methods v3: Fix TSEG size for 830 v4: Add missing 'else' (Chris) Tested-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>

According to my experiments (and later confirmation from the hardware developers), the maximum sizes mentioned in the specification delimit how far in the buffer the hardware tracking can go. And the hardware calculates the size based on the plane address we provide - and the provided plane address might not be the real x:0,y:0 point due to the compute_page_offset() function. On platforms that do the x/y offset adjustment trick it will be really hard to reproduce a bug, but on the current SKL we can reproduce the bug with igt/kms_frontbuffer_tracking/fbc-farfromfence. With this patch, we'll go from "CRC assertion failure" to "FBC unexpectedly disabled", which is still a failure on the test suite but is not a perceived user bug - you will just not save as much power as you could if FBC is disabled. v2, rewrite patch after clarification from the Hadware guys: - Rename function so it's clear what the check is for. - Use the new intel_fbc_get_plane_source_sizes() function in order to get the proper sizes as seen by FBC. v3: - Rebase after the s/sizes/size/ on the previous patch. - Adjust comment wording (Ville). - s/used_/effective_/ (Ville).

We were considering the whole framebuffer height, but the spec says we should only consider the active display height size. There were still some unclear questions based on the spec, but the hardware guys clarified them for us. According to them: - CFB size = CFB stride * Number of lines FBC writes to CFB - CFB stride = plane stride / compression limit - Number of lines FBC writes to CFB = MIN(plane source height, maximum number of lines FBC writes to CFB) - Plane source height = - pipe source height (PIPE_SRCSZ register) (before SKL) - plane size register height (PLANE_SIZE register) (SKL+) - Maximum number of lines FBC writes to CFB = - plane source height (before HSW) - 2048 (HSW+) For the plane source height, I could just have made our code do I915_READ() in order to be more future proof, but since it's not cool to do register reads I decided to just recalculate the values we use when we actually write to those registers. With this patch, depending on your machine configuration, a lot of the kms_frontbuffer_tracking subtests that used to result in a SKIP due to not enough stolen memory still start resulting in a PASS. v2: Use the clipped src size instead of pipe_src_h (Ville). v3: Use the appropriate information provided by the hardware guys. v4: Bikesheds: s/sizes/size/, s/fb_cpp/cpp/ (Ville). v5: - Don't use crtc->config->pipe_src_x for BDW- (Ville). - Fix the register name written in the comment.

Technology has evolved and now we have eDP panels with 3200x1800 resolution. In the meantime, the BIOS guys didn't change the default 32mb for stolen memory. On top of that, we can't assume our users will be able to increase the default stolen memory size to more than 32mb - I'm not even sure all BIOSes allow that. So just the fbcon buffer alone eats 22mb of my stolen memroy, and due to the BDW/SKL restriction of not using the last 8mb of stolen memory, all that's left for FBC is 2mb! Since fbcon is not the coolest feature ever, I think it's better to save our precious stolen resource to FBC and the other guys. On the other hand, we really want to use as much stolen memory as possible, since on some older systems the stolen memory may be a considerable percentage of the total available memory. This patch tries to achieve a little balance using a simple heuristic: if the fbcon wants more than half of the available stolen memory, don't use stolen memory in order to leave some for FBC and the other features. The long term plan should be to implement a way to set priorities for stolen memory allocation and then evict low priority users when the high priority ones need the memory. While we still don't have that, let's try to make FBC usable with the simple solution.

Exclude active GPU pages from the purview of the background shrinker (kswapd), as these cause uncontrollable GPU stalls. Given that the shrinker is rerun until the freelists are satisfied, we should have opportunity in subsequent passes to recover the pages once idle. If the machine does run out of memory entirely, we have the forced idling in the oom-notifier as a means of releasing all the pages we can before an oom is prematurely executed.

We can forgo an evict-everything here as the shrinker operation itself will unbind any vma as required. If we explicitly idle the GPU through a switch to the default context, we not only create a request in an illegal context (e.g. whilst shrinking during execbuf with a request already allocated), but switching to the default context will not free up the memory backing the active contexts - unless in the unlikely situation that context had already been closed (and just kept arrive by being the current context). The saving is near zero and the danger real. To compensate for the loss of the forced retire, add a couple of retire-requests to i915_gem_shirnk() - this should help free up any transitive cache from the requests. Note that the second retire_requests is for the benefit of the hand-rolled execlist ctx active tracking: We need to manually kick requests to get those unpinned again. Once that's fixed we can try to remove this again.

Often it is very useful to know why we suddenly purge vast tracts of memory and surprisingly up until now we didn't even have a tracepoint for when we shrink our memory. Note that there are slab_start/end tracepoints already, but those don't cover the internal recursion when we directly call into our shrinker code. Hence a separate tracepoint seems justified. Also note that we don't really need a separate tracepoint for the actual amount of pages freed since we already have an unbind tracpoint for that.

Whilst discussing possible ways to trigger an invalidate_range on a userptr with an aliased GGTT mmapping (and so cause a struct_mutex deadlock), the conclusion is that we can, and we must, prevent any possible deadlock by avoiding taking the mutex at all during invalidate_range. This has numerous advantages all of which stem from avoid the sleeping function from inside the unknown context. In particular, it simplifies the invalidate_range because we no longer have to juggle the spinlock/mutex and can just hold the spinlock for the entire walk. To compensate, we have to make get_pages a bit more complicated in order to serialise with a pending cancel_userptr worker. As we hold the struct_mutex, we have no choice but to return EAGAIN and hope that the worker is then flushed before we retry after reacquiring the struct_mutex. The important caveat is that the invalidate_range itself is no longer synchronous. There exists a small but definite period in time in which the old PTE's page remain accessible via the GPU. Note however that the physical pages themselves are not invalidated by the mmu_notifier, just the CPU view of the address space. The impact should be limited to a delay in pages being flushed, rather than a possibility of writing to the wrong pages. The only race condition that this worsens is remapping an userptr active on the GPU where fresh work may still reference the old pages due to struct_mutex contention. Given that userspace is racing with the GPU, it is fair to say that the results are undefined. v2: Only queue (and importantly only take one refcnt) the worker once.
