[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v4] drm/i915: Add soft-pinning API for execbuffer

Thomas Daniel thomas.daniel at intel.com
Tue Jun 30 07:13:13 PDT 2015


From: Chris Wilson <chris at chris-wilson.co.uk>

Userspace can pass in an offset that it presumes the object is located
at. The kernel will then do its utmost to fit the object into that
location. The assumption is that userspace is handling its own object
locations (for example along with full-ppgtt) and that the kernel will
rarely have to make space for the user's requests.

Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris at chris-wilson.co.uk>

v2: Fixed incorrect eviction found by Michal Winiarski - fix suggested by Chris
Wilson.  Fixed incorrect error paths causing crash found by Michal Winiarski.
(Not published externally)

v3: Rebased because of trivial conflict in object_bind_to_vm.  Fixed eviction
to allow eviction of soft-pinned objects when another soft-pinned object used
by a subsequent execbuffer overlaps reported by Michal Winiarski.
(Not published externally)

v4: Moved soft-pinned objects to the front of ordered_vmas so that they are
pinned first after an address conflict happens to avoid repeated conflicts in
rare cases (Suggested by Chris Wilson).  Expanded comment on
drm_i915_gem_exec_object2.offset to cover this new API.
