[PATCH 28/32] drm/i915: Remove short-term pins from execbuf, v3.

Maarten Lankhorst maarten.lankhorst at linux.intel.com
Tue Oct 19 10:36:55 UTC 2021


Add a flag PIN_VALIDATE, to indicate we don't need to pin and only
protected by the object lock.

This removes the need to unpin, which is done by just releasing the
lock.

eb_reserve is slightly reworked for readability, but the same steps
are still done:
- First pass pins with NONBLOCK.
- Second pass unbinds all objects first, then pins.
- Third pass is only called when not all objects are softpinned, and
  unbinds all objects, then calls i915_gem_evict_vm(), then pins.

When evicting the entire vm in eb_reserve() we do temporarily pin objects
that are marked with EXEC_OBJECT_PINNED. This is because they are already
at their destination, and i915_gem_evict_vm() would otherwise unbind them.

However, we reduce the visibility of those pins by limiting the pin
to our call to i915_gem_evict_vm() only, and pin with vm->mutex held,
instead of the entire duration of the execbuf.

Not sure the latter matters, one can hope..
In theory we could kill the pinning by adding an extra flag to the vma
to temporarily prevent unbinding for gtt for i915_gem_evict_vm only, but
I think that might be overkill. We're still holding the object lock, and
we don't have blocking eviction yet. It's likely sufficient to simply
enforce EXEC_OBJECT_PINNED for all objects on >= gen12.

Changes since v1:
- Split out eb_reserve() into separate functions for readability.
Changes since v2:
- Make batch buffer mappable on platforms where only GGTT is available,
  to prevent moving the batch buffer during relocations.
