[PATCH 02/12] drm/xe: Introduce GGTT documentation

Rodrigo Vivi rodrigo.vivi at intel.com
Fri Aug 16 15:02:33 UTC 2024


Document xe_ggtt and ensure it is part of the built kernel docs.

v2: - Accepted all Michal's suggestions
    - Rebased on top of new set_pte per platform/wa function pointer
v3: - Typos and other acronym fixes (Michal)

+/**
+ * DOC: Global Graphics Translation Table (GGTT)
+ *
+ * Xe GGTT implements the support for a Global Virtual Address space that is used
+ * for resources that are accessible to privileged (i.e. kernel-mode) processes,
+ * and not tied to a specific user-level process. For example, the Graphics
+ * micro-Controller (GuC) and Display Engine (if present) utilize this Global
+ * address space.
+ *
+ * The Global GTT (GGTT) translates from the Global virtual address to a physical
+ * address that can be accessed by HW. The GGTT is a flat, single-level table.
+ *
+ * Xe implements a simplified version of the GGTT specifically managing only a
+ * certain range of it that goes from the Write Once Protected Content Memory (WOPCM)
+ * Layout to a predefined GUC_GGTT_TOP. This approach avoids complications related to
+ * the GuC (Graphics Microcontroller) hardware limitations. The GuC address space
+ * is limited on both ends of the GGTT, because the GuC shim HW redirects
+ * accesses to those addresses to other HW areas instead of going through the
+ * GGTT. On the bottom end, the GuC can't access offsets below the WOPCM size,
+ * while on the top side the limit is fixed at GUC_GGTT_TOP. To keep things
+ * simple, instead of checking each object to see if they are accessed by GuC or
+ * not, we just exclude those areas from the allocator. Additionally, to simplify
+ * the driver load, we use the maximum WOPCM size in this logic instead of the
+ * programmed one, so we don't need to wait until the actual size to be
+ * programmed is determined (which requires FW fetch) before initializing the
+ * GGTT. These simplifications might waste space in the GGTT (about 20-25 MBs
+ * depending on the platform) but we can live with this. Another benefit of this
+ * is the GuC bootrom can't access anything below the WOPCM max size so anything
+ * the bootrom needs to access (e.g. a RSA key) needs to be placed in the GGTT
+ * above the WOPCM max size. Starting the GGTT allocations above the WOPCM max
+ * give us the correct placement for free.
