+/**
+ * struct i915_context_engines_parallel_submit - Configure engine for
+ * parallel submission.
+ *
+ * Setup a slot in the context engine map to allow multiple BBs to be submitted
+ * in a single execbuf IOCTL. Those BBs will then be scheduled to run on the GPU
+ * in parallel. Multiple hardware contexts are created internally in the i915
+ * run these BBs. Once a slot is configured for N BBs only N BBs can be
+ * submitted in each execbuf IOCTL and this is implicit behavior e.g. The user
+ * doesn't tell the execbuf IOCTL there are N BBs, the execbuf IOCTL knows how
+ * many BBs there are based on the slot's configuration. The N BBs are the last
+ * N buffer objects or first N if I915_EXEC_BATCH_FIRST is set.
+ *
+ * The default placement behavior is to create implicit bonds between each
+ * context if each context maps to more than 1 physical engine (e.g. context is
+ * a virtual engine). Also we only allow contexts of same engine class and these
+ * contexts must be in logically contiguous order. Examples of the placement
+ * behavior described below. Lastly, the default is to not allow BBs to
+ * preempted mid BB rather insert coordinated preemption on all hardware
+ * contexts between each set of BBs. Flags may be added in the future to change
+ * both of these default behaviors.
+ *
+ * Returns -EINVAL if hardware context placement configuration is invalid or if
+ * the placement configuration isn't supported on the platform / submission
+ * interface.
+ * Returns -ENODEV if extension isn't supported on the platform / submission
+ * interface.
+ *
+ * .. code-block:: none
+ *
+ *	Example 1 pseudo code:
+ *	CS[X] = generic engine of same class, logical instance X
+ *	INVALID = I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID, I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID_NONE
+ *	set_engines(INVALID)
+ *	set_parallel(engine_index=0, width=2, num_siblings=1,
+ *		     engines=CS[0],CS[1])
+ *
+ *	Results in the following valid placement:
+ *	CS[0], CS[1]
+ *
+ *	Example 2 pseudo code:
+ *	CS[X] = generic engine of same class, logical instance X
+ *	INVALID = I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID, I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID_NONE
+ *	set_engines(INVALID)
+ *	set_parallel(engine_index=0, width=2, num_siblings=2,
+ *		     engines=CS[0],CS[2],CS[1],CS[3])
+ *
+ *	Results in the following valid placements:
+ *	CS[0], CS[1]
+ *	CS[2], CS[3]
+ *
+ *	This can also be thought of as 2 virtual engines described by 2-D array
+ *	in the engines the field with bonds placed between each index of the
+ *	virtual engines. e.g. CS[0] is bonded to CS[1], CS[2] is bonded to
+ *	CS[3].
+ *	VE[0] = CS[0], CS[2]
+ *	VE[1] = CS[1], CS[3]

+ *	Example 3 pseudo code:
+ *	CS[X] = generic engine of same class, logical instance X
+ *	INVALID = I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID, I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID_NONE
+ *	set_engines(INVALID)
+ *	set_parallel(engine_index=0, width=2, num_siblings=2,
+ *		     engines=CS[0],CS[1],CS[1],CS[3])
+ *
+ *	Results in the following valid and invalid placements:
+ *	CS[0], CS[1]
+ *	CS[1], CS[3] - Not logical contiguous, return -EINVAL
