2010-08-09drm/i915: Implement fair lru eviction across both rings. (v2)Chris Wilson
Based in a large part upon Daniel Vetter's implementation and adapted for handling multiple rings in a single pass. This should lead to better gtt usage and fixes the page-fault-of-doom triggered. The fairness is provided by scanning through the GTT space amalgamating space in rendering order. As soon as we have a contiguous space in the GTT large enough for the new object (and its alignment), evict any object which lies within that space. This should keep more objects resident in the GTT. Doing throughput testing on a PineView machine with cairo-perf-trace indicates that there is very little difference with the new LRU scan, perhaps a small improvement... Except oddly for the poppler trace.

The eviction code is the gnarly underbelly of memory management, and is clearer if kept separated from the normal domain management in GEM. Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Eric Anholt <eric@anholt.net>
