> i915 used to support time based sampling mode which is good for overall
> system monitoring, but is not enough for query mode used to measure a
> single draw call or dispatch. Gen9-Gen11 are using current i915 perf
> implementation for query, but Gen12+ requires a new approach for query
> based on triggered reports within oa buffer.
> 
> Triggering reports into the OA buffer is achieved by writing into a
> a trigger register. Optionally an unused counter/register is set with a
> marker value such that a triggered report can be identified in the OA
> buffer. Reports are usually triggered at the start and end of work that
> is measured.
> 
> Since OA buffer is large and queries can be frequent, an efficient way
> to look for triggered reports is required. By knowing the current head
> and tail offsets into the OA buffer, it is easier to determine the
> locality of the reports of interest.
> 
> Current perf OA interface does not expose head/tail information to the
> user and it filters out invalid reports before sending data to user.
> Also considering limited size of user buffer used during a query,
> creating a 1:1 copy of the OA buffer at the user space added undesired
> complexity.
> 
> The solution was to map the OA buffer to user space provided
> 
> (1) that it is accessed from a privileged user.
> (2) OA report filtering is not used.
> 
> These 2 conditions would satisfy the safety criteria that the current
> perf interface addresses.
> 
> To enable the query:
> - Add an ioctl to expose head and tail to the user
> - Add an ioctl to return size and offset of the OA buffer
> - Map the OA buffer to the user space
> 
> v2:
> - Improve commit message (Chris)
> - Do not mmap based on gem object filp. Instead, use perf_fd and support
>   mmap syscall (Chris)
> - Pass non-zero offset in mmap to enforce the right object is
>   mapped (Chris)
> - Do not expose gpu_address (Chris)
> - Verify start and length of vma for page alignment (Lionel)
> - Move SQNTL config out (Lionel)
> 
> v3: (Chris)
> - Omit redundant checks
> - Return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS is old stream is closed
> - Maintain reference counts to stream in vm_open and vm_close
> - Use switch to identify object to be mapped
> 
> v4: Call kref_put on closing perf fd (Chris)
> v5:
> - Strip access to OA buffer from unprivileged child of a privileged
>   parent. Use VM_DONTCOPY
> - Enforce MAP_PRIVATE by checking for VM_MAYSHARE
> 
> v6:
> (Chris)
> - Use len of -1 in unmap_mapping_range
> - Don't use stream->oa_buffer.vma->obj in vm_fault_oa
> - Use kernel block comment style
> - do_mmap gets a reference to the file and puts it in do_munmap, so
>   no need to maintain a reference to i915_perf_stream. Hence, remove
>   vm_open/vm_close and stream->closed hooks/checks.
> (Umesh)
> - Do not allow mmap if SAMPLE_OA_REPORT is not set during
>   i915_perf_open_ioctl.
> - Drop ioctl returning head/tail since this information is already
>   whitelisted. Remove hooks to read head register.
> 
> v7: (Chris)
> - unmap before destroy
> - change ioctl argument struct
> 
> v8: Documentation and more checks (Chris)

For total pedantry, we could check cmd & (IOC_IN | IOC_OUT) as well :)
