[Intel-gfx] [RFC 0/8] Per client engine busyness

[Tvrtko Ursulin]

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

Another re-spin of the per-client engine busyness series. Highlights from this
version:

 * Now tracks GPU time for clients who exit with GPU work left running.
 * No more global toggle - it is now constantly on.

Internally we track time spent on engines for each struct intel_context. This
can serve as a building block for several features from the want list:
smarter scheduler decisions, getrusage(2)-like per-GEM-context functionality
wanted by some customers, cgroups controller, dynamic SSEU tuning,...

Externally, in sysfs, we expose time spent on GPU per client and per engine
class.

Sysfs interface enables us to implement a "top-like" tool for GPU tasks. Or with
a "screenshot":

Implementation wise we add a a bunch of files in sysfs like:

	# cd /sys/class/drm/card0/clients/
	# tree
	.
	├── 7
	│   ├── busy
	│   │   ├── 0
	│   │   ├── 1
	│   │   ├── 2
	│   │   └── 3
	│   ├── name
	│   └── pid
	├── 8
	│   ├── busy
	│   │   ├── 0
	│   │   ├── 1
	│   │   ├── 2
	│   │   └── 3
	│   ├── name
	│   └── pid
	├── 9
	│   ├── busy
	│   │   ├── 0
	│   │   ├── 1
	│   │   ├── 2
	│   │   └── 3
	│   ├── name
	│   └── pid
	└── enable_stats

Files in 'busy' directories are numbered using the engine class ABI values and
they contain accumulated nanoseconds each client spent on engines of a
respective class.

I will post the corresponding patch to intel_gpu_top for reference as well.

Tvrtko Ursulin (8):
  drm/i915: Switch context id allocation directoy to xarray
  drm/i915: Reference count struct drm_i915_file_private

  drm/i915: Update client name on context create
  drm/i915: Track per-context engine busyness
  drm/i915: Track all user contexts per client
  drm/i915: Contexts can use struct pid stored in the client
  drm/i915: Expose per-engine client busyness
