Move the intel_context_instance() to the caller so that we can decouple ourselves from one context instance per engine. v2: Rename pin_lock() to lock_pinned(), hopefully that is clearer. Signed-off-by:

We want to pass in a intel_context into intel_context_pin() and that requires us to first be able to lookup the intel_context! Signed-off-by:

In the current scheme, on submitting a request we take a single global GEM wakeref, which trickles down to wake up all GT power domains. This is undesirable as we would like to be able to localise our power management to the available power domains and to remove the global GEM operations from the heart of the driver. (The intent there is to push global GEM decisions to the boundary as used by the GEM user interface.) Now during request construction, each request is responsible via its logical context to acquire a wakeref on each power domain it intends to utilize. Currently, each request takes a wakeref on the engine(s) and the engines themselves take a chipset wakeref. This gives us a transition on each engine which we can extend if we want to insert more powermangement control (such as soft rc6). The global GEM operations that currently require a struct_mutex are reduced to listening to pm events from the chipset GT wakeref. As we reduce the struct_mutex requirement, these listeners should evaporate. Perhaps the biggest immediate change is that this removes the struct_mutex requirement around GT power management, allowing us greater flexibility in request construction. Another important knock-on effect, is that by tracking engine usage, we can insert a switch back to the kernel context on that engine immediately, avoiding any extra delay or inserting global synchronisation barriers. This makes tracking when an engine and its associated contexts are idle much easier -- important for when we forgo our assumed execution ordering and need idle barriers to unpin used contexts. In the process, it means we remove a large chunk of code whose only purpose was to switch back to the kernel context. Signed-off-by:

We wish to start segregating the power management into different control domains, both with respect to the hardware and the user interface. The first step is that at the lowest level flow of requests, we want to process a context event (and not a global GEM operation). In this patch, we introduce the context callbacks that in future patches will be redirected to per-engine interfaces leading to global operations as required. The intent is that this will be guarded by the timeline->mutex, except that retiring has not quite finished transitioning over from being guarded by struct_mutex. So at the moment it is protected by struct_mutex with a reminded to switch. v2: Rename default handlers to intel_context_enter_engine. Signed-off-by:

Start partitioning off the code that talks to the hardware (GT) from the uapi layers and move the device facing code under gt/ One casualty is s/intel_ringbuffer.h/intel_engine.h/ with the plan to subdivide that header and body further (and split out the submission code from the ringbuffer and logical context handling). This patch aims to be simple motion so git can fixup inflight patches with little mess. Signed-off-by:

As we push for better compartmentalisation, it is more convenient to copy the default sseu configuration from the engine into the derived logical context, than it is to dig it out from i915->runtime_info. v2: Use intel_sseu_from_device_info() to describe the converter Signed-off-by:

For virtual engines, we need to keep the HW context alive while it remains in use. For regular HW contexts, they are created and kept alive until the end of the GEM context. For simplicity, generalise the requirements and keep an active reference to each HW context. Signed-off-by:

On unpinning the intel_context, we remove it from the active list inside the GEM context. This list is supposed to be guarded by the GEM context mutex, so remember to take it! Fixes: 7e3d9a59 ("drm/i915: Track active engines within a context") Signed-off-by:

Introduce a mutex to start locking the HW contexts independently of struct_mutex, with a view to reducing the coarse struct_mutex. The intel_context.pin_mutex is used to guard the transition to and from being pinned on the gpu, and so is required before starting to build any request. The intel_context will then remain pinned until the request completes, but the mutex can be released immediately unpin completion of pinning the context. A slight variant of the above is used by per-context sseu that wants to inspect the pinned status of the context, and requires that it remains stable (either !pinned or pinned) across its operation. By using the pin_mutex to serialise operations while pin_count==0, we can take that pin_mutex for stabilise the boolean pin status. v2: for Tvrtko! * Improved commit message. * Dropped _gpu suffix from gen8_modify_rpcs_gpu. v3: Repair the locking for sseu selftests Signed-off-by:

Push the intel_context pin callback down from intel_engine_cs onto the context itself by virtue of having a central caller for intel_context_pin() being able to lookup the intel_context itself. Signed-off-by:

In preparation for an ever growing number of engines and so ever increasing static array of HW contexts within the GEM context, move the array over to an rbtree, allocated upon first use. Unfortunately, this imposes an rbtree lookup at a few frequent callsites, but we should be able to mitigate those by moving over to using the HW context as our primary type and so only incur the lookup on the boundary with the user GEM context and engines. v2: Check for no HW context in guc_stage_desc_init Signed-off-by:
