[PATCH v4 1/5] drm/gpusvm: Introduce devmem_only flag for allocation

[Matthew Brost]

From: Himal Prasad Ghimiray <himal.prasad.ghimiray@intel.com>

This commit adds a new flag, devmem_only, to the drm_gpusvm structure. The
purpose of this flag is to ensure that the get_pages function allocates
memory exclusively from the device's memory. If the allocation from
device memory fails, the function will return an -EFAULT error.

v3:
 - s/vram_only/devmem_only/

[PATCH v4 2/5] drm/xe: Strict migration policy for atomic SVM faults

[Matthew Brost]

Mixing GPU and CPU atomics does not work unless a strict migration
policy of GPU atomics must be device memory. Enforce a policy of must be
in VRAM with a retry loop of 2 attempts, if retry loop fails abort
fault.

v2:
 - Only retry migration on atomics
 - Drop alway migrate modparam
v3:
 - Only set vram_only on DGFX (Himal)
 - Bail on get_pages failure if vram_only and retry count exceeded (Himal)
 - s/vram_only/devmem_only
 - Update xe_svm_range_is_valid to accept devmem_only argument
v4:
 - Fix logic bug get_pages failure

retry loop of 3 attempts not 2. with that addressed, Patch looks good to 
me. Since both of us collaborated on this , it has my ack and need 
someone else also to review it.

So let's say devmem_only is true here, and range-
>base.flags.migrate_devmem is false. Wouldn't that mean the range is
unusable and needs to be freed and re-allocated?

Also another thing going back to older code, it seems like range-
>tile_invalidated is protected by the notifier lock, so shouldn't we
assert that to be held in the function? It seems not to be held further
below:

Do we have any hardware that supports pagefaults but not 4K VRAM pages?

Requires notifier lock. Also see comment on re-allocating the range
above.

Requires notifier lock.

Should we have some sort of timeout instead of a try-count? Perhaps as
a last resort fall back to a 4K range?

This is typo, this should be s/migrate_devmem/has_devmem_pages.

This translates to:

Either devmem_only is not required or we have devmem pages with a valid mapping.

If migrate_devmem is false and devmem_only is true, that is a fatal
error actually, we should have check for that and kill the fault. An
example of this would be shared mapping which cannot be migrated to
devmem.

Yea techincally to get a stable value we'd need the notifier lock but
this is an opportunistic check - at worst if we read a valid range we
skip the page faults and will immediately get another page fault. So we
could take the notifier lock here but I don't think this is strickly
required. Let me know what you think here.

I did have code like that at one point to reduce range size but it is a
bit complicated as we'd have to remove the range... I'd rather stick
with the retry loop for now and if this becomes problematic, circle back
to reducing the size of the fault page on each retry loop.

The problem with this is that the code gets harder to maintain and
understand. A new reader would probably first react over the lockless
read, and then why there are no memory barriers and then what happens
if the page-fault was marked as resolved without actually resolving it.

So IMO if we do opportunistic tests to opt out of locking (which is
discouraged in the drm locking guidelines
https://blog.ffwll.ch/2022/08/locking-hierarchy.html)
we should definitely add separate functions for that with extensive
docs and READ_ONCE() annotation.

But also think if this is really worth sacrificing readability instead
of actually relying on alloc_vram() and get_pages() exiting early if
everything looks ok?

OK, I was under the impression that PVC actually supported 4K pages.
But perhaps there was a bug encountered while implementing that.

A lock here doesn't actually gain us anything, though, as the state can
immediately change after lock release triggering another fault. If you
agree, I'll go with READ_ONCE and add comments in the code indicating
it's an opportunistic check.

alloc_vram() as is very expensive, get_pages() less but still CPU cycles.

The idea here is to short-circuit "page fault storms," where many EUs
access the same page simultaneously. If I recall correctly, this was a
significant issue on PVC—so much so that we are considering firmware and
hardware changes going forward. We should try to mitigate these
conditions in the page fault handler, if possible.

Yeah. Ideally I think a well documented
xe_svm_range_check_valid() (or perhaps better name),

and an
xe_svm_range_is_valid() with an assert.

in the spirit of 
mmu_interval_check_retry() (lockless, documented) and
mmu_interval_read_retry() (requires lock).

Yes, I think that's a perfectly legit case.

Perhaps in the future we could even short-circuit pf storms in the G2H
handler?

[PATCH v4 3/5] drm/gpusvm: Add timeslicing support to GPU SVM

[Matthew Brost]

Add timeslicing support to GPU SVM which will guarantee the GPU a
minimum execution time on piece of physical memory before migration back
to CPU. Intended to implement strict migration policies which require
memory to be in a certain placement for correct execution.

[PATCH v4 4/5] drm/xe: Timeslice GPU on atomic SVM fault

[Matthew Brost]

Ensure GPU can make forward progress on an atomic SVM GPU fault by
giving the GPU a timeslice of 5ms

v2:
 - Reduce timeslice to 5ms
 - Double timeslice on retry
 - Split out GPU SVM changes into independent patch

[PATCH v4 5/5] drm/xe: Add atomic_svm_timeslice_ms debugfs entry

[Matthew Brost]

Add some informal control for atomic SVM fault GPU timeslice to be able
to play around with values and tweak performance.
