Enabling context support increases SwapBuffers latency by about 20%
(measured on an i7-3720qm). We can offset that loss slightly by enabling
faster caching for the contexts. As they are not backed by any
particular cache (such as the sampler or render caches) our only option
is to select the generic mid-level cache. This reduces the latency of
the swap by about 5%.
Oddly this effect can be observed running smokin-guns on IVB at
1280x1024:
Using BLT copies for swaps: 151.67 fps
Using Render copies for swaps (unpatched): 141.70 fps
With contexts disabled: 150.23 fps
With contexts in L3$: 150.77 fps

It's not that the assertion is incorrect, but rather that we can call
do_destroy early in loading, and we will falsely BUG().
Since contexts have been in for a while now, and in the internal APIs
are pretty stable, it should be fairly safe to remove this.

This was a rebase error from when the patches originally landed. Since
the context size is unsigned, there is also no use in checking if it's
less than 0.

Based on the work by Mika Kuoppala, we realised that we need to handle
seqno wraparound prior to committing our changes to the ring. The most
obvious point then is to grab the seqno inside intel_ring_begin(), and
then to reuse that seqno for all ring operations until the next request.
As intel_ring_begin() can fail, the callers must already be prepared to
handle such failure and so we can safely add further checks.
This patch looks like it should be split up into the interface
changes and the tweaks to move seqno wrapping from the execbuffer into
the core seqno increment. However, I found no easy way to break it into
incremental steps without introducing further broken behaviour.
v2: Mika found a silly mistake and a subtle error in the existing code;
inside i915_gem_retire_requests() we were resetting the sync_seqno of
the target ring based on the seqno from this ring - which are only
related by the order of their allocation, not retirement. Hence we were
applying the optimisation that the rings were synchronised too early,
fortunately the only real casualty there is the handling of seqno
wrapping.
v3: Do not forget to reset the sync_seqno upon module reinitialisation,
ala resume.

Pull drm merge (part 1) from Dave Airlie:
"So first of all my tree and uapi stuff has a conflict mess, its my
fault as the nouveau stuff didn't hit -next as were trying to rebase
regressions out of it before we merged.
Highlights:
- SH mobile modesetting driver and associated helpers
- some DRM core documentation
- i915 modesetting rework, haswell hdmi, haswell and vlv fixes, write
combined pte writing, ilk rc6 support,
- nouveau: major driver rework into a hw core driver, makes features
like SLI a lot saner to implement,
- psb: add eDP/DP support for Cedarview
- radeon: 2 layer page tables, async VM pte updates, better PLL
selection for > 2 screens, better ACPI interactions
The rest is general grab bag of fixes.
So why part 1? well I have the exynos pull req which came in a bit
late but was waiting for me to do something they shouldn't have and it
looks fairly safe, and David Howells has some more header cleanups
he'd like me to pull, that seem like a good idea, but I'd like to get
this merge out of the way so -next dosen't get blocked."
Tons of conflicts mostly due to silly include line changes, but mostly

A side-effect of commit 7d54a904285b6e780291b91a518267bec5591913
Author: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk>
Date: Fri Aug 10 10:18:10 2012 +0100
drm/i915: Apply post-sync write for pipe control invalidates
was that only a request to emit invalidate flush would result in the
TLB being invalidated (since it requires synchronisation and so incurs a
performance penalty). However, the stated w/a for hardware contexts is
that the TLBs must be invalidated prior to a MI_SET_CONTEXT, yet the w/a
itself did not request the TLBs to be invalidated...
Note this w/a does not prevent the hard system hang I experience when
using hw contexts (with rc6 enabled) on SNB GT1.

Avoid stalling and waiting for the GPU by checking to see if there is
sufficient inactive space in the aperture for us to bind the buffer
prior to writing through the GTT. If there is inadequate space we will
have to stall waiting for the GPU, and incur overheads moving objects
about. Instead, only incur the clflush overhead on the target object by
writing through shmem.

The issue is that we stale data in the CPU caches, when we come to
swap-out the object, the CPU may short-circuit the reads from those
cacheline and so corrupt the context object.
Secondary, leaving the context object as being marked in the CPU write
domain whilst on the GPU active list is a bad idea and will throw
warnings later.
Note: Thanks to calling set_to_gtt_domain with write = false and not
setting any gpu write domain when putting a context object onto the
active list (when we switch away from it) the set_to_gtt_domain call
won't block.

From http://intellinuxgraphics.org/documentation/SNB/IHD_OS_Vol1_Part3.pdf
[DevSNB] If Flush TLB invalidation Mode is enabled it's the driver's
responsibility to invalidate the TLBs at least once after the previous
context switch after any GTT mappings changed (including new GTT
entries). This can be done by a pipelined PIPE_CONTROL with TLB inv bit
set immediately before MI_SET_CONTEXT.
On GEN7 the invalidation mode is explicitly set, but this appears to be
lacking for GEN6. Since I don't know the history on this, I've decided
to dynamically read the value at ring init time, and use that value
throughout.
v2: better comment (daniel)

The workaround itself applies to gen7 only (according to the docs) and
as Eric Anholt points out shouldn't be required since we don't use HW
scheduling features, and therefore arbitration. Though since it is a
small, and simple addition, and we don't really understand the issue,
just do it.
FWIW, I eventually want to play with some of the arbitration stuff, and
I'd hate to forget about this.

Implement the context switch code as well as the interfaces to do the
context switch. This patch also doesn't match 1:1 with the RFC patches.
The main difference is that from Daniel's responses the last context
object is now stored instead of the last context. This aids in allows us
to free the context data structure, and context object independently.
There is room for optimization: this code will pin the context object
until the next context is active. The optimal way to do it is to
actually pin the object, move it to the active list, do the context
switch, and then unpin it. This allows the eviction code to actually
evict the context object if needed.
The context switch code is missing workarounds, they will be implemented
in future patches.

Invent an abstraction for a hw context which is passed around through
the core functions. The main bit a hw context holds is the buffer object
which backs the context. The rest of the members are just helper
functions. Specifically the ring member, which could likely go away if
we decide to never implement whatever other hw context support exists.
Of note here is the introduction of the 64k alignment constraint for the
BO. If contexts become heavily used, we should consider tweaking this
down to 4k. Until the contexts are merged and tested a bit though, I
think 64k is a nice start (based on docs).
Since we don't yet switch contexts, there is really not much complexity
here. Creation/destruction works pretty much as one would expect. An idr
is used to generate the context id numbers which are unique per file
descriptor.

Very basic code for context setup/destruction in the driver.
Adds the file i915_gem_context.c This file implements HW context
support. On gen5+ a HW context consists of an opaque GPU object which is
referenced at times of context saves and restores. With RC6 enabled,
the context is also referenced as the GPU enters and exists from RC6
(GPU has it's own internal power context, except on gen5). Though
something like a context does exist for the media ring, the code only
supports contexts for the render ring.
In software, there is a distinction between contexts created by the
user, and the default HW context. The default HW context is used by GPU
clients that do not request setup of their own hardware context. The
default context's state is never restored to help prevent programming
errors. This would happen if a client ran and piggy-backed off another
clients GPU state. The default context only exists to give the GPU some
offset to load as the current to invoke a save of the context we
actually care about. In fact, the code could likely be constructed,
albeit in a more complicated fashion, to never use the default context,
though that limits the driver's ability to swap out, and/or destroy
other contexts.
All other contexts are created as a request by the GPU client. These
contexts store GPU state, and thus allow GPU clients to not re-emit
state (and potentially query certain state) at any time. The kernel
driver makes certain that the appropriate commands are inserted.
There are 4 entry points into the contexts, init, fini, open, close.
The names are self-explanatory except that init can be called during
reset, and also during pm thaw/resume. As we expect our context to be
preserved across these events, we do not reinitialize in this case.
As Adam Jackson pointed out, The cutoff of 1MB where a HW context is
considered too big is arbitrary. The reason for this is even though
context sizes are increasing with every generation, they have yet to
eclipse even 32k. If we somehow read back way more than that, it
probably means BIOS has done something strange, or we're running on a
platform that wasn't designed for this.
v2: rename load/unload to init/fini (daniel)
remove ILK support for get_size() (indirectly daniel)
add HAS_HW_CONTEXTS macro to clarify supported platforms (daniel)
