[RFC 10/12] cgroup/drm: Introduce weight based drm cgroup control

Tvrtko Ursulin
2023-01-12T16:56:07Z

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

Similar to CPU scheduling, implement a concept of weight in the drm cgroup
controller.

Uses the same range and default as the CPU controller - CGROUP_WEIGHT_MIN,
CGROUP_WEIGHT_DFL and CGROUP_WEIGHT_MAX.

Later each cgroup is assigned a time budget proportionaly based on the
relative weights of it's siblings. This time budget is in turn split by
the group's children and so on.

This will be used to implement a soft, or best effort signal from drm
cgroup to drm core notifying about groups which are over their allotted
budget.

No guarantees that the limit can be enforced are provided or implied.

+
+The DRM controller allows configuring scheduling soft limits.
+
+DRM scheduling soft limits
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Because of the heterogenous hardware and driver DRM capabilities, soft limits
+are implemented as a loose co-operative (bi-directional) interface between the
+controller and DRM core.
+
+The controller configures the GPU time allowed per group and periodically scans
+the belonging tasks to detect the over budget condition, at which point it
+invokes a callback notifying the DRM core of the condition.
+
+DRM core provides an API to query per process GPU utilization and 2nd API to
+receive notification from the cgroup controller when the group enters or exits
+the over budget condition.
+
+Individual DRM drivers which implement the interface are expected to act on this
+in the best-effort manner only. There are no guarantees that the soft limits
+will be respected.
+
+DRM scheduling soft limits interface files
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+ drm.weight
+ Standard cgroup weight based control [1, 10000] used to configure the
+ relative distributing of GPU time between the sibling groups.
+
+ drm.period_us (debugging aid during RFC only)
+ An integer representing the period with which the controller should look
+ at the GPU usage by the group and potentially send the over/under budget
+ signal.
+ Value of zero (defaul) disables the soft limit checking.
