This series is starting to get long, so I figured I'd add a
short cover letter for context.
The point of this series is trying to add both deferred-freeing
logic as well as a page pool to the DMA-BUF system heap.
This is desired, as the combination of deferred freeing along
with the page pool allows us to offload page-zeroing out of
the allocation hot path. This was done originally with ION
and this patch series allows the DMA-BUF system heap to match
ION's system heap allocation performance in a simple
microbenchmark [1] (ION re-added to the kernel for comparision,
running on an x86 vm image):
./dmabuf-heap-bench -i 0 1 system
Testing dmabuf system vs ion heaptype 0 (flags: 0x1)
---------------------------------------------
dmabuf heap: alloc 4096 bytes 5000 times in 86572223 ns 17314 ns/call
ion heap: alloc 4096 bytes 5000 times in 97442526 ns 19488 ns/call
dmabuf heap: alloc 1048576 bytes 5000 times in 196635057 ns 39327 ns/call
ion heap: alloc 1048576 bytes 5000 times in 357323629 ns 71464 ns/call
dmabuf heap: alloc 8388608 bytes 5000 times in 3165445534 ns 633089 ns/call
ion heap: alloc 8388608 bytes 5000 times in 3699591271 ns 739918 ns/call
dmabuf heap: alloc 33554432 bytes 5000 times in 13327402517 ns 2665480 ns/call
ion heap: alloc 33554432 bytes 5000 times in 15292352796 ns 3058470 ns/call
Daniel didn't like earlier attempts to re-use the network
page-pool code to achieve this, and suggested the ttm_pool be
used instead. This required pulling the fairly tightly knit
ttm_pool logic apart, but after many failed attmempts I think
I found a workable abstraction to split out shared logic.
So this series contains a new generic drm_page_pool helper
library, converts the ttm_pool to use it, and then adds the
dmabuf deferred freeing and adds support to the dmabuf system
heap to use both deferred freeing and the new drm_page_pool.
Input would be greatly appreciated. Testing as well, as I don't
have any development hardware that utilizes the ttm pool.
thanks
