From 00dae4d3d35d4f526929633b76e00b0ab4d3970d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Ekstrand Date: Thu, 8 Jul 2021 10:48:12 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: Implement SINGLE_TIMELINE with a syncobj (v4) This API is entirely unnecessary and I'd love to get rid of it. If userspace wants a single timeline across multiple contexts, they can either use implicit synchronization or a syncobj, both of which existed at the time this feature landed. The justification given at the time was that it would help GL drivers which are inherently single-timeline. However, neither of our GL drivers actually wanted the feature. i965 was already in maintenance mode at the time and iris uses syncobj for everything. Unfortunately, as much as I'd love to get rid of it, it is used by the media driver so we can't do that. We can, however, do the next-best thing which is to embed a syncobj in the context and do exactly what we'd expect from userspace internally. This isn't an entirely identical implementation because it's no longer atomic if userspace races with itself by calling execbuffer2 twice simultaneously from different threads. It won't crash in that case; it just doesn't guarantee any ordering between those two submits. It also means that sync files exported from different engines on a SINGLE_TIMELINE context will have different fence contexts. This is visible to userspace if it looks at the obj_name field of sync_fence_info. Moving SINGLE_TIMELINE to a syncobj emulation has a couple of technical advantages beyond mere annoyance. One is that intel_timeline is no longer an api-visible object and can remain entirely an implementation detail. This may be advantageous as we make scheduler changes going forward. Second is that, together with deleting the CLONE_CONTEXT API, we should now have a 1:1 mapping between intel_context and intel_timeline which may help us reduce locking. v2 (Tvrtko Ursulin): - Update the comment on i915_gem_context::syncobj to mention that it's an emulation and the possible race if userspace calls execbuffer2 twice on the same context concurrently. v2 (Jason Ekstrand): - Wrap the checks for eb.gem_context->syncobj in unlikely() - Drop the dma_fence reference - Improved commit message v3 (Jason Ekstrand): - Move the dma_fence_put() to before the error exit v4 (Tvrtko Ursulin): - Add a comment about fence contexts to the commit message Signed-off-by: Jason Ekstrand Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20210708154835.528166-8-jason@jlekstrand.net --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_context.c | 49 +++++-------------- .../gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_context_types.h | 14 +++++- .../gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_execbuffer.c | 16 ++++++ 3 files changed, 40 insertions(+), 39 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_context.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_context.c index 9f9369d3c0004..249bd36f14019 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_context.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_context.c @@ -67,6 +67,8 @@ #include #include +#include + #include "gt/gen6_ppgtt.h" #include "gt/intel_context.h" #include "gt/intel_context_param.h" @@ -224,10 +226,6 @@ static void intel_context_set_gem(struct intel_context *ce, ce->vm = vm; } - GEM_BUG_ON(ce->timeline); - if (ctx->timeline) - ce->timeline = intel_timeline_get(ctx->timeline); - if (ctx->sched.priority >= I915_PRIORITY_NORMAL && intel_engine_has_timeslices(ce->engine)) __set_bit(CONTEXT_USE_SEMAPHORES, &ce->flags); @@ -351,9 +349,6 @@ void i915_gem_context_release(struct kref *ref) mutex_destroy(&ctx->engines_mutex); mutex_destroy(&ctx->lut_mutex); - if (ctx->timeline) - intel_timeline_put(ctx->timeline); - put_pid(ctx->pid); mutex_destroy(&ctx->mutex); @@ -570,6 +565,9 @@ static void context_close(struct i915_gem_context *ctx) if (vm) i915_vm_close(vm); + if (ctx->syncobj) + drm_syncobj_put(ctx->syncobj); + ctx->file_priv = ERR_PTR(-EBADF); /* @@ -765,33 +763,11 @@ static void __assign_ppgtt(struct i915_gem_context *ctx, i915_vm_close(vm); } -static void __set_timeline(struct intel_timeline **dst, - struct intel_timeline *src) -{ - struct intel_timeline *old = *dst; - - *dst = src ? intel_timeline_get(src) : NULL; - - if (old) - intel_timeline_put(old); -} - -static void __apply_timeline(struct intel_context *ce, void *timeline) -{ - __set_timeline(&ce->timeline, timeline); -} - -static void __assign_timeline(struct i915_gem_context *ctx, - struct intel_timeline *timeline) -{ - __set_timeline(&ctx->timeline, timeline); - context_apply_all(ctx, __apply_timeline, timeline); -} - static struct i915_gem_context * i915_gem_create_context(struct drm_i915_private *i915, unsigned int flags) { struct i915_gem_context *ctx; + int ret; if (flags & I915_CONTEXT_CREATE_FLAGS_SINGLE_TIMELINE && !HAS_EXECLISTS(i915)) @@ -820,16 +796,13 @@ i915_gem_create_context(struct drm_i915_private *i915, unsigned int flags) } if (flags & I915_CONTEXT_CREATE_FLAGS_SINGLE_TIMELINE) { - struct intel_timeline *timeline; - - timeline = intel_timeline_create(&i915->gt); - if (IS_ERR(timeline)) { + ret = drm_syncobj_create(&ctx->syncobj, + DRM_SYNCOBJ_CREATE_SIGNALED, + NULL); + if (ret) { context_close(ctx); - return ERR_CAST(timeline); + return ERR_PTR(ret); } - - __assign_timeline(ctx, timeline); - intel_timeline_put(timeline); } trace_i915_context_create(ctx); diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_context_types.h b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_context_types.h index 676592e27e7d2..df76767f0c41b 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_context_types.h +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_context_types.h @@ -83,7 +83,19 @@ struct i915_gem_context { struct i915_gem_engines __rcu *engines; struct mutex engines_mutex; /* guards writes to engines */ - struct intel_timeline *timeline; + /** + * @syncobj: Shared timeline syncobj + * + * When the SHARED_TIMELINE flag is set on context creation, we + * emulate a single timeline across all engines using this syncobj. + * For every execbuffer2 call, this syncobj is used as both an in- + * and out-fence.
