From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin at intel.com>

I added tracking of most classes of objects which contribute to client's memory
footprint and accouting along the similar lines as in Rob's msm code. Then
printing it out to fdinfo using the drm helper Rob added.

Accounting by keeping per client lists may not be the most effient method,
perhaps we should simply add and subtract stats directly at convenient sites,
but that too is not straightforward due no existing connection between buffer
objects and clients. Possibly some other tricky bits in the buffer sharing
deparment. So lets see if this works for now. Infrequent reader penalty should
not be too bad (may be even useful to dump the lists in debugfs?) and additional
list_head per object pretty much drowns in the noise.

Example fdinfo with the series applied:

# cat /proc/1383/fdinfo/8
pos:    0
flags:  02100002
mnt_id: 21
ino:    397
drm-driver:     i915
drm-client-id:  18
drm-pdev:       0000:00:02.0
drm-total-system:       125 MiB
drm-shared-system:      16 MiB
drm-active-system:      110 MiB
drm-resident-system:    125 MiB
drm-purgeable-system:   2 MiB
drm-total-stolen-system:        0
drm-shared-stolen-system:       0
drm-active-stolen-system:       0
drm-resident-stolen-system:     0
drm-purgeable-stolen-system:    0
drm-engine-render:      25662044495 ns
drm-engine-copy:        0 ns
drm-engine-video:       0 ns
drm-engine-video-enhance:       0 ns

Example gputop output (local patches currently):

DRM minor 0
 PID     SMEM  SMEMRSS   render     copy     video    NAME
1233     124M     124M |████████||        ||        ||        | neverball

v2:
 * Now actually per client.

v3:
 * Track imported dma-buf objects.

v4:
 * Rely on DRM GEM handles for tracking user objects.
 * Fix internal object accounting (no placements).

Tvrtko Ursulin (5):
  drm/i915: Add ability for tracking buffer objects per client
  drm/i915: Record which client owns a VM
  drm/i915: Track page table backing store usage
  drm/i915: Account ring buffer and context state storage
  drm/i915: Implement fdinfo memory stats printing
