[PATCH 15/15] drm/i915: Async GPU relocation processing

Chris Wilson
2017-02-23T16:18:50Z

If the user requires patching of their batch or auxiliary buffers, we
currently make the alterations on the cpu. If they are active on the GPU
at the time, we wait under the struct_mutex for them to finish executing
before we rewrite the contents. This happens if shared relocation trees
are used between different contexts with separate address space (and the
buffers then have different addresses in each), the 3D state will need
to be adjusted between execution on each context. However, we don't need
to use the CPU to do the relocation patching, as we could queue commands
to the GPU to perform it and use fences to serialise the operation with
the current activity and future - so the operation on the GPU appears
just as atomic as performing it immediately. Performing the relocation
rewrites on the GPU is not free, in terms of pure throughput, the number
of relocations/s is about halved - but more importantly so is the time
under the struct_mutex.
