We only allow persistent requests to remain on the GPU past the closure
of their containing context (and process) so long as they are continuously
checked for hangs or allow other requests to preempt them, as we need to
ensure forward progress of the system. If we allow persistent contexts
to remain on the system after the the hangcheck mechanism is disabled,
the system may grind to a halt. On disabling the mechanism, we sent a
pulse along the engine to remove all executing contexts from the engine
which would check for hung contexts -- but we did not prevent those
contexts from being resubmitted if they survived the final hangcheck.

On the virtual engines, we only use the intel_breadcrumbs for tracking
signaling of stale breadcrumbs from the irq_workers. They do not have
any associated interrupt handling, active requests are passed to a
physical engine and associated breadcrumb interrupt handler. This causes
issues for us as we need to ensure that we do not actually try and
enable interrupts and the powermanagement required for them on the
virtual engine, as they will never be disabled. Instead, let's
specify the physical engine used for interrupt handler on a particular
breadcrumb.

The second try at staging the transfer of the breadcrumb. In part one,
we realised we could not simply move to the second engine as we were
only holding the breadcrumb lock on the first. So in commit 6c81e21a47
("drm/i915/gt: Stage the transfer of the virtual breadcrumb"), we
removed it from the first engine and marked up this request to reattach
the signaling on the new engine. However, this failed to take into
account that we only attach the breadcrumb if the new request is added
at the start of the queue, which if we are transferring, it is because
we know there to be a request to be signaled (and hence we would not be
attached).
In this attempt, we try to transfer the completed requests to the
irq_worker on its rq->engine->breadcrumbs. This preserves the coupling
between the rq and its breadcrumbs, so that
i915_request_cancel_breadcrumb() does not attempt to manipulate the list
under the wrong lock.
v2: Code sharing is fun.

In the near future, we will utilize the busy-stats on each engine to
approximate the C0 cycles of each, and use that as an input to a manual
RPS mechanism. That entails having busy-stats always enabled and so we
can remove the enable/disable routines and simplify the pmu setup. As a
consequence of always having the stats enabled, we can also show the
current active time via sysfs/engine/xcs/active_time_ns.

Since we want to do a lockless read of the current active request, and
that request is written to by process_csb also without serialisation, we
need to instruct gcc to take care in reading the pointer itself.
Otherwise, we have observed execlists_active() to report 0x40.

The answer is that as we keep the existing execlists->active pointing
into the array as we copy over that array, the unserialised read may see
a partial pointer value.

Execlists uses a scheduling quantum (a timeslice) to alternate execution
between ready-to-run contexts of equal priority. This ensures that all
users (though only if they of equal importance) have the opportunity to
run and prevents livelocks where contexts may have implicit ordering due
to userspace semaphores. However, not all workloads necessarily benefit
from timeslicing and in the extreme some sysadmin may want to disable or
reduce the timeslicing granularity.
The timeslicing mechanism can be compiled out^W^W disabled (but should
DCE!) with

If the preempted context takes too long to relinquish control, e.g. it
is stuck inside a shader with arbitration disabled, evict that context
with an engine reset. This ensures that preemptions are reasonably
responsive, providing a tighter QoS for the more important context at
the cost of flagging unresponsive contexts more frequently (i.e. instead
of using an ~10s hangcheck, we now evict at ~100ms). The challenge of
lies in picking a timeout that can be reasonably serviced by HW for
typical workloads, balancing the existing clients against the needs for
responsiveness.
Note that coupled with timeslicing, this will lead to rapid GPU "hang"
detection with multiple active contexts vying for GPU time.

The function intel_engine_breadcrumbs_irq() is always invoked from an interrupt
handler and for that reason it invokes (as an optimisation) only spin_lock()
for locking assuming that the interrupts are already disabled. The
function intel_engine_signal_breadcrumbs() is provided to disable
interrupts while the former function is invoked so that assumption is
also true for callers from preemptible context.
On PREEMPT_RT local_irq_disable() really disables interrupts and this
forbids to invoke spin_lock() which becomes a sleeping spinlock.
This is also problematic with `threadirqs' in conjunction with
irq_work. With force threading the interrupt handler, the handler is
invoked with disabled BH but with interrupts enabled. This is okay and
the lock itself is never acquired in IRQ context. This changes with
irq_work (signal_irq_work()) which _still_ invokes
intel_engine_breadcrumbs_irq() from IRQ context. Lockdep should see this
and complain.
Acquire the locks in intel_engine_breadcrumbs_irq() with _irqsave()
suffix and let all callers invoke intel_engine_breadcrumbs_irq()
directly instead using intel_engine_signal_breadcrumbs().

When using a global seqno, we required a precise stop-the-workd event to
handle preemption and unwind the global seqno counter. To accomplish
this, we would preempt to a special out-of-band context and wait for the
machine to report that it was idle. Given an idle machine, we could very
precisely see which requests had completed and which we needed to feed
back into the run queue.
However, now that we have scrapped the global seqno, we no longer need
to precisely unwind the global counter and only track requests by their
per-context seqno. This allows us to loosely unwind inflight requests
while scheduling a preemption, with the enormous caveat that the
requests we put back on the run queue are still _inflight_ (until the
preemption request is complete). This makes request tracking much more
messy, as at any point then we can see a completed request that we
believe is not currently scheduled for execution. We also have to be
careful not to rewind RING_TAIL past RING_HEAD on preempting to the
running context, and for this we use a semaphore to prevent completion
of the request before continuing.
To accomplish this feat, we change how we track requests scheduled to
the HW. Instead of appending our requests onto a single list as we
submit, we track each submission to ELSP as its own block. Then upon
receiving the CS preemption event, we promote the pending block to the
inflight block (discarding what was previously being tracked). As normal
CS completion events arrive, we then remove stale entries from the
inflight tracker.
v2: Be a tinge paranoid and ensure we flush the write into the HWS page
for the GPU semaphore to pick in a timely fashion.

To continue the onslaught of removing the assumption of a global
execution ordering, another casualty is the engine->timeline. Without an
actual timeline to track, it is overkill and we can replace it with a
much less grand plain list. We still need a list of requests inflight,
for the simple purpose of finding inflight requests (for retiring,
resetting, preemption etc).

We need to keep the context image pinned in memory until after the GPU
has finished writing into it. Since it continues to write as we signal
the final breadcrumb, we need to keep it pinned until the request after
it is complete. Currently we know the order in which requests execute on
each engine, and so to remove that presumption we need to identify a
request/context-switch we know must occur after our completion. Any
request queued after the signal must imply a context switch, for
simplicity we use a fresh request from the kernel context.
The sequence of operations for keeping the context pinned until saved is:
- On context activation, we preallocate a node for each physical engine
the context may operate on. This is to avoid allocations during
unpinning, which may be from inside FS_RECLAIM context (aka the
shrinker)
- On context deactivation on retirement of the last active request (which
is before we know the context has been saved), we add the
preallocated node onto a barrier list on each engine
- On engine idling, we emit a switch to kernel context. When this
switch completes, we know that all previous contexts must have been
saved, and so on retiring this request we can finally unpin all the
contexts that were marked as deactivated prior to the switch.
We can enhance this in future by flushing all the idle contexts on a
regular heartbeat pulse of a switch to kernel context, which will also
be used to check for hung engines.
