Pretty similar to what we have on execlists. We're reusing most of the GEM code, however, due to GuC quirks we need a couple of extra bits. Preemption is implemented as GuC action, and actions can be pretty slow. Because of that, we're using a mutex to serialize them. Since we're requesting preemption from the tasklet, the task of creating a workitem and wrapping it in GuC action is delegated to a worker. To distinguish that preemption has finished, we're using additional piece of HWSP, and since we're not getting context switch interrupts, we're also adding a user interrupt. The fact that our special preempt context has completed unfortunately doesn't mean that we're ready to submit new work. We also need to wait for GuC to finish its own processing. v2: Don't compile out the wait for GuC, handle workqueue flush on reset, no need for ordered workqueue, put on a reviewer hat when looking at my own patches (Chris) Move struct work around in intel_guc, move user interruput outside of conditional (Michał) Keep ring around rather than chase though intel_context v3: Extract WA for flushing ggtt writes to a helper (Chris) Keep work_struct in intel_guc rather than engine (Michał) Use ordered workqueue for inject_preempt worker to avoid GuC quirks. v4: Drop now unused INTEL_GUC_PREEMPT_OPTION_IMMEDIATE (Daniele) Drop stray newlines, use container_of for intel_guc in worker, check for presence of workqueue when flushing it, rather than enable_guc_submission modparam, reorder preempt postprocessing (Chris) v5: Make wq NULL after destroying it v6: Swap struct guc_preempt_work members (Michał) Signed-off-by: Michał Winiarski <michal.winiarski@intel.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Jeff McGee <jeff.mcgee@intel.com> Cc: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Oscar Mateo <oscar.mateo@intel.com> Cc: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20171026133558.19580-1-michal.winiarski@intel.com
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
