[PATCH 2/5] drm/nouveau/uvmm: Allow larger pages

[PATCH 2/5] drm/nouveau/uvmm: Allow larger pages

[Mohamed Ahmed]

From: Mary Guillemard <mary@mary.zone>

Now that everything in UVMM knows about the variable page shift, we can
select larger values.

The proposed approach rely on nouveau_bo::page unless it would cause
alignment issues (in which case we fall back to searching an appropriate
shift)

NIT: Both of your tags should come after Mary's tag. The same applied to some of
the other patches.

In nouveau a struct drm_gpuva_op_map always has a valid GEM object set; we bail
out if userspace gives us an invalid GEM handle.

Do we ever run into the "otherwise" case? nouveau_bo_fixup_align() seems to
already ensure that your previous call will never fail?

Let's move the call to select_page_shift() into op_map_prepare().

Re: [PATCH 2/5] drm/nouveau/uvmm: Allow larger pages

[Mohamed Ahmed]

Hey,

Thank you so much for the review! I applied everything for v2, except this one:

> Let's move the call to select_page_shift() into op_map_prepare().

How would this work? Originally when we were working on this, we did
place it in op_map_prepare() but we ran into the issue where
nouveau_uvmm_vmm_put() needed the page_shift retrieved (see
nouveau_uvmm_sm_prepare_unwind()).

Thanks.

-			ret = op_map_prepare(uvmm, &new->map, &op->map, args, PAGE_SHIFT);

You can move this call to select_page_shift() into op_map_prepare(), that's not
related to nouveau_uvmm_sm_prepare_unwind(), right?

[PATCH 0/5 v2] drm/nouveau: Enable variable page sizes and compression

[Mohamed Ahmed]

The new VM_BIND interface only supported 4K pages. This was problematic as
it left performance on the table because GPUs don't have sophisticated TLB
and page walker hardware. 

Additionally, the HW can only do compression on large (64K) and huge (2M)
pages, which is a major performance booster (>50% in some cases).

This patchset sets out to add support for larger page sizes and also
enable compression and set the compression tags when userspace binds with
the corresponding PTE kinds and alignment. It also increments the nouveau
version number which allows userspace to use compression only when the
kernel actually supports both features and avoid breaking the system if a
newer mesa version is paired with an older kernel version.

For the associated userspace MR, please see !36450:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/36450

- v2: Implement review comments.
- v1: Initial implementation.

[PATCH 1/5] drm/nouveau/uvmm: Prepare for larger pages

[Mohamed Ahmed]

From: Mary Guillemard <mary@mary.zone>

Currently memory allocated by VM_BIND uAPI can only have a  granuality
matching PAGE_SIZE (4KiB in common case)

To have a better memory management and to allow big (64KiB) and huge
(2MiB) pages later in the series, we are now passing the page shift all
around the internals of UVMM.

[PATCH 2/5] drm/nouveau/uvmm: Allow larger pages

[Mohamed Ahmed]

From: Mary Guillemard <mary@mary.zone>

Now that everything in UVMM knows about the variable page shift, we can
select larger values.

The proposed approach relies on nouveau_bo::page unless if it would cause
alignment issues (in which case we fall back to searching for an
appropriate shift)

[PATCH 3/5] drm/nouveau/mmu/gp100: Remove unused/broken support for compression

[Mohamed Ahmed]

From: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@nvidia.com>

From GP100 onwards it's not possible to initialise comptag RAM without
PMU firmware, which nouveau has no support for.

As such, this code is essentially a no-op and will always revert to the
equivalent non-compressed kind due to comptag allocation failure.  It's
also broken for the needs of VM_BIND/Vulkan.

Remove the code entirely to make way for supporting compression on GPUs
that support GSM-RM.

[PATCH 5/5] drm/nouveau/drm: Bump the driver version to 1.4.1 to report new features

[Mohamed Ahmed]

The HW can only do compression on large and huge pages, and enabling it on
4K pages leads to a MMU fault. Compression also needs kernel support for
handling the compressed kinds and managing the compression tags.

This increments the nouveau version number which allows NVK to enable it
only when the kernel actually supports both features and avoid breaking
the system if a newer mesa version is paired with an older kernel version.

For the associated userspace MR, please see !36450:

Sorry about that, I misunderstood what you meant and thought you meant
to remove select_page_shift() entirely and move the shift selection
logic into op_map_prepare(). Done and sent v2.

Re: [PATCH 2/5] drm/nouveau/uvmm: Allow larger pages

[Mohamed Ahmed]

Hello,

Pinging again re: review and also was asking if we can revert the
select_page_shift() handling back to v1 behavior with a fall-back
path, as it looks like there are some cases where
nouveau_bo_fixup_align() isn't enough;
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/36450#note_3159199.

Thanks!

Re: [PATCH 0/5 v2] drm/nouveau: Enable variable page sizes and compression

[Lyude Paul]

BTW - I'm still looking through this series, but it probably wouldn't hurt in
the future to make sure the version in the patch header gets applied to all
patches in the series and not just the cover letter (just since this
definitely confused me for a moment).

Oh - also, definitely a more granular changelog would help too (e.g.

I don't think we should add a fallback for something that is expected to be
sufficient.

Instead we should figure out in which exact case the WARN_ON() was hit and why.

Yeah - I was about to respond but decided to dig a bit into
nouveau_bo_fixup_align().

Hopefully this isn't silly but, maybe this line at the bottom of
nouveau_bo_fixup_align() has something to do with it:

	*size = roundup_64(*size, PAGE_SIZE);

Since PAGE_SIZE is 4096, so whatever size we come up with it seems like we're
still rounding to 4K.

One other concern I have with the way that the previous and current series
seem to be checking alignment requirements: _maybe_ there isn't a better way
of doing this, but:

static bool
op_map_aligned_to_page_shift(const struct drm_gpuva_op_map *op, u8 page_shift)
{
	u64 page_size = 1ULL << page_shift;

	return op->va.addr % page_size == 0 && op->va.range % page_size == 0 &&
		   op->gem.offset % page_size == 0;
}

In this function, op->va.addr is u64 and so is page_size. This will compile on
64 bit kernels, but many 32 bit architectures don't actually have native
division or modulus for u64 x u64 and you need to use the functions in
<linux/math64.h> so you get these operations emulated on 32 bit arches.

That being said though - it would be really good if we could actually just
avoid doing modulus here entirely. Modulus tends to be quite slow when
emulated on 32 bit, and my understanding is it's not all that much faster on
some 64 bit arches like arm. Are we sure that we need this function at all if
we fix nouveau_bo_fixup_align()?

Re: [PATCH 5/5] drm/nouveau/drm: Bump the driver version to 1.4.1 to report new features

[Lyude Paul]

Wow, I think this might be the first time I've gotten to witness someone bump
the DRM driver version! I think this is a fine reason to do so though.

One change we should do though: we're going from 1.3.1 to 1.4.1 even though
there's no 1.4.0. So, I think using 1.4.0 would probably be a better version
(unless there's some explicit reason for the .1 that I'm not seeing here).

The reason I wrote this code initially was to handle addresses
provided by userspace that aren't aligned to the page size selected
during BO creation.
This is something I did trigger when typing this patch initially with
my distro provided version of mesa (likely 25.0.x but it has been a
while)
Thomas Andersen also confirmed on nouveau irc channel that he did hit
this case with an old version of NVK and this patchset.

I think we could just remove the WARN_ON and properly document that
this was previously allowed and is there for backward compatibility.

Re: [PATCH 5/5] drm/nouveau/drm: Bump the driver version to 1.4.1 to report new features

[Mohamed Ahmed]

Heyy,
We're actually going from 1.4.0 to 1.4.1; it's just when the version
bump was done to 1.4.0, it wasn't documented back then. 1.4.0 was
VM_BIND so it was a pretty big change as well.

Re: [PATCH 0/5 v2] drm/nouveau: Enable variable page sizes and compression

[Mohamed Ahmed]

Yeah really sorry about that, it's a format patch mistake. I thought
it appended the v2 on all but it only did it on the cover letter.
Regarding the changelog, noted, thanks! I didn't know what the
convention was and figured to keep it brief inline with how commits
are named.

Re: [PATCH 2/5] drm/nouveau/uvmm: Allow larger pages

[Mohamed Ahmed]

The other thing making me hesitant of depending on
nouveau_bo_fixup_align() is that VM_BIND is entirely client controlled
and there isn't really (at least as far as I understand) way for the
bo_fixup_align() path to have enough info to e.g. work around the
"client allocates size and binds to address not aligned to that size"
issue (likely the reason for hitting the mismatch case. this didn't
show in the older kernel versions because everything was forced to 4K
anyways).

Gotcha, yeah - Mary's explanation convinced me. I think then as long as we
convert to using the math64 functions, drop the WARN_ON and document it like
Mary suggested then this is probably fine and we can leave
nouveau_bo_fixup_align() the way it is.

One other change we should consider making though: can we make page_shift 32
bit? A page shift of 32 would give us 2GB pages and I think that sounds way
larger then anything we'd expect to encounter. Plus, we could just warn if we
get a page shift larger then 32 bit and fail the ioctl. 64bit % 32bit should
be faster and at least alleviate some of the overhead from the math here.

If the 64-bit modulo is a big concern, then this could also be
re-written to use bit arithmetic like this:

static bool
op_map_aligned_to_page_shift(const struct drm_gpuva_op_map *op, u8 page_shift)
{
        u64 non_page_bits = (1ULL << page_shift) - 1;

        return op->va.addr & non_page_bits == 0 &&
               op->va.range & non_page_bits == 0 &&
               op->gem.offset & non_page_bits == 0;
}
