The current code only runs when we do an I915_WRITE operation. It
checks if the unclaimed register flag is set before we do the
operation, and then it checks it again after we do the operation. This
double check allows us to find out if the I915_WRITE operation in
question is the bad one, or if some previous code is the bad one. When
it finds a problem, our code uses DRM_ERROR to signal it.
The good thing about the current code is that it detects the problem,
so at least we can know we did something wrong. The problem is that
even though we find the problem, we don't really have much information
to actually debug it. So whenever I see one of these DRM_ERROR
messages on my systems, the first thing I do is apply a patch to
change the DRM_ERROR to a WARN and also check for unclaimed registers
on I915_READ operations. This local patch makes things even slower,
but it usually helps a lot in finding the bad code.
The first point here is that since the current code is only useful to
detect whether we have a problem or not, but it is not really good to
find the cause of the problem, I don't think we should be checking
both before and after every I915_WRITE operation: just doing the check
once should be enough for us to quickly detect problems. With this
change, the code that runs by default for every single user will only
do 1 read operation for every single I915_WRITE, instead of 2. This
patch does this change.
The second point is that the local patch I have should be upstream,
but since it makes things slower it should be disabled by default. So
I added the i915.mmio_debug option to enable it.
So after this patch, this is what will happen:
- By default, we will try to detect unclaimed registers once after
every I915_WRITE operation. Previously we tried twice for every
I915_WRITE.
- When we find an unclaimed register we will still print a DRM_ERROR
message, but we will now tell the user to try again with
i915.mmio_debug=1.
- When we use i915.mmio_debug=1 we will try to find unclaimed
registers both before and after every I915_READ and I915_WRITE
operation, and we will print stack traces in case we find them.
This should really help locating the exact point of the bad code
(or at least finding out that i915.ko is not the problem).
This commit also opens space for really-slow register debugging
operations on other platforms. In theory we can now add lots and lots
of debug code behind i915.mmio_debug, enable this option on our tests,
and catch more problems.

Panel Self Refresh is an eDP power saving feature specified by VESA's eDP v1.3,
that allows some panel componets to shutdown while you still see static images on
the screen. Besides being supported on the platform it must be supported by the
eDP panel itself.
Now that we have the propper frontbuffer tracking support and correct locks on place
we can enabled this feature by default.

This patch enables the framework for using MMIO based flip calls,
in contrast with the CS based flip calls which are being used currently.
MMIO based flip calls can be enabled on architectures where
Render and Blitter engines reside in different power wells. The
decision to use MMIO flips can be made based on workloads to give
100% residency for Media power well.
v2: The MMIO flips now use the interrupt driven mechanism for issuing the
flips when target seqno is reached. (Incorporating Ville's idea)
v3: Rebasing on latest code. Code restructuring after incorporating
Damien's comments
v4: Addressing Ville's review comments
-general cleanup
-updating only base addr instead of calling update_primary_plane
-extending patch for gen5+ platforms
v5: Addressed Ville's review comments
-Making mmio flip vs cs flip selection based on module parameter
-Adding check for DRIVER_MODESET feature in notify_ring before calling
notify mmio flip.
-Other changes mostly in function arguments
v6: -Having a seperate function to check condition for using mmio flips (Ville)
-propogating error code from i915_gem_check_olr (Ville)
v7: -Adding __must_check with i915_gem_check_olr (Chris)
-Renaming mmio_flip_data to mmio_flip (Chris)
-Rebasing on latest nightly
v8: -Rebasing on latest code
-squash 3rd patch in series(mmio setbase vs page flip race) with this patch
-Added new tiling mode update in intel_do_mmio_flip (Chris)
v9: -check for obj->last_write_seqno being 0 instead of obj->ring being NULL in
intel_postpone_flip, as this is a more restrictive condition (Chris)
v10: -Applied Chris's suggestions for squashing patches 2,3 into this patch.
These patches make the selection of CS vs MMIO flip at the page flip time, and
make the module parameter for using mmio flips as tristate, the states being
'force CS flips', 'force mmio flips', 'driver discretion'.
Changed the logic for driver discretion (Chris)
v11: Minor code cleanup(better readability, fixing whitespace errors, using
lockdep to check mutex locked status in postpone_flip, removal of __must_check
in function definition) (Chris)

VTd has a few too many "outright disable the damn thing" workarounds
accumulated and for validation we want a simple knob to make sure we
disable them all.
Since this is for bdw+ validation and atm we don't have any
workarounds for bdw this option currently does nothing. So currently
this is just a placeholder to make sure reality will match with the
documented process for our validation people.

Currently, when our driver becomes idle for i915.pc8_timeout (default:
5s) we enable PC8, so we save some power, but not everything we can.
Then, while PC8 is enabled, if we stay idle for more
autosuspend_delay_ms (default: 10s) we'll enter runtime PM and put the
graphics device in D3 state, saving even more power. The two features
are separate things with increasing levels of power savings, but if we
disable PC8 we'll never get into D3.
While from the modularity point of view it would be nice to keep these
features as separate, we have reasons to merge them:
- We are not aware of anybody wanting a "PC8 without D3" environment.
- If we keep both features as separate, we'll have to to test both
PC8 and PC8+D3 code paths. We're already having a major pain to
make QA do automated testing of just one thing, testing both paths
will cost even more.
- Only Haswell+ supports PC8, so if we want to add runtime PM support
to, for example, IVB, we'll have to copy some code from the PC8
feature to runtime PM, so merging both features as a single thing
will make it easier for enabling runtime PM on other platforms.
This patch only does the very basic steps required to have PC8 and
runtime PM merged on a single feature: the next patches will take care
of cleaning up everything.
v2: - Rebase.
v3: - Rebase.
- Fully remove the deprecated i915 params since Daniel doesn't
consider them as part of the ABI.
v4: - Rebase.
- Fix typo in the commit message.
v5: - Rebase, again.
- Add a huge comment explaining the different forcewake usage
(Chris, Daniel).
- Use open-coded forcewake functions (Daniel).

The command parser scans batch buffers submitted via execbuffer ioctls before
the driver submits them to hardware. At a high level, it looks for several
things:
1) Commands which are explicitly defined as privileged or which should only be
used by the kernel driver. The parser generally rejects such commands, with
the provision that it may allow some from the drm master process.
2) Commands which access registers. To support correct/enhanced userspace
functionality, particularly certain OpenGL extensions, the parser provides a
whitelist of registers which userspace may safely access (for both normal and
drm master processes).
3) Commands which access privileged memory (i.e. GGTT, HWS page, etc). The
parser always rejects such commands.
See the overview comment in the source for more details.
This patch only implements the logic. Subsequent patches will build the tables
that drive the parser.

With 20+ module parameters, I think referring to them via a struct
improves clarity over just having a bunch of globals. While at it, move
the parameter initialization and definitions into a new file
i915_params.c to reduce clutter in i915_drv.c.
Apart from the ill-named i915_enable_rc6, i915_enable_fbc and
i915_enable_ppgtt parameters, for which we lose the "i915_" prefix
internally, the module parameters now look the same both on the kernel
command line and in code. For example, "i915.modeset".
The downsides of the change are losing static on a couple of variables
and not having the initialization and module_param_named() right next to
each other. On the other hand, all module parameters are now defined in
one place at i915_params.c. Plus you can do this to find all module
parameter references:
$ git grep "i915\." -- drivers/gpu/drm/i915
v2:
- move the definitions into a new file
- s/i915_params/i915/
- make i915_try_reset i915.reset, for consistency
