968b503e69 Revert "drm/i915: Don't save/restore hardware status page address register"
This reverts commit a7a75c8f70.

There are two different variations on how Intel hardware addresses the
"Hardware Status Page". One as a location in physical memory and the
other as an offset into the virtual memory of the GPU, used in more
recent chipsets. (The HWS itself is a cacheable region of memory which
the GPU can write to without requiring CPU synchronisation, used for
updating various details of hardware state, such as the position of
the GPU head in the ringbuffer, the last breadcrumb seqno, etc).

These two types of addresses were updated in different locations of code
- one inline with the ringbuffer initialisation, and the other during
device initialisation. (The HWS page is logically associated with
the rings, and there is one HWS page per ring.) During resume, only the
ringbuffers were being re-initialised along with the virtual HWS page,
leaving the older physical address HWS untouched. This then caused a
hang on the older gen3/4 (915GM, 945GM, 965GM) the first time we tried
to synchronise the GPU as the breadcrumbs were never being updated.

a1656b9090 drm/i915: Disable GPU semaphores by default
Andi Kleen narrowed his GPU hangs on his Sugar Bay (SNB desktop) rev 09
down to the use of GPU semaphores, and we already know that they appear
broken up to Huron River (mobile) rev 08. (I'm optimistic that disabling
GPU semaphores is simply hiding another bug by the latency and
side-effects of the additional device interaction it introduces...)

However, use of semaphores is a massive performance improvement... Only
as long as the system remains stable. Enable at your peril.

9135583464 drm/i915: Do not overflow the MMADDR write FIFO
Whilst the GT is powered down (rc6), writes to MMADDR are placed in a
FIFO by the System Agent. This is a limited resource, only 64 entries, of
which 20 are reserved for Display and PCH writes, and so we must take
care not to queue up too many writes. To avoid this, there is counter
which we can poll to ensure there are sufficient free entries in the
fifo.

"Issuing a write to a full FIFO is not supported; at worst it could
result in corruption or a system hang."

ce453d81cb drm/i915: Use a device flag for non-interruptible phases
The code paths for modesetting are growing in complexity as we may need
to move the buffers around in order to fit the scanout in the aperture.
Therefore we face a choice as to whether to thread the interruptible status
through the entire pinning and unbinding code paths or to add a flag to
the device when we may not be interrupted by a signal. This does the
latter and so fixes a few instances of modesetting failures under stress.

ff72145bad drm: dumb scanout create/mmap for intel/radeon (v3)
This is just an idea that might or might not be a good idea,
it basically adds two ioctls to create a dumb and map a dumb buffer
suitable for scanout. The handle can be passed to the KMS ioctls to create
a framebuffer.

It looks to me like it would be useful in the following cases:
a) in development drivers - we can always provide a shadowfb fallback.
b) libkms users - we can clean up libkms a lot and avoid linking
to libdrm_*.
c) plymouth via libkms is a lot easier.

Userspace bits would be just calls + mmaps. We could probably
mark these handles somehow as not being suitable for acceleartion
so as top stop people who are dumber than dumb.

This patch adds a driver option, i915.vbt_sdvo_panel_type, which can be

b0b544cd37 drm/i915: Use PM QoS to prevent C-State starvation of gen3 GPU
945 class hardware has an interesting quirk in which the vblank
interrupt is not raised if the CPU is in a low power state. (We also
suspect that the memory bus is clocked to the CPU/c-state and not the
GPU so there are secondary starvation issues.) In order to prevent the
most obvious issue of the low of the vblank interrupt (stuttering
compositing that only updates when the mouse is moving) is to install a
PM QoS request to prevent low c-states whilst the GPU is active.

6fe4f14044 drm/i915/execbuffer: Reorder binding of objects to favour restrictions
As the mappable portion of the aperture is always a small subset at the
start of the GTT, it is allocated preferentially by drm_mm. This is
useful in case we ever need to map an object later. However, if you have
a large object that can consume the entire mappable region of the
GTT this prevents the batchbuffer from fitting and so causing an error.
Instead allocate all those that require a mapping up front in order to
improve the likelihood of finding sufficient space to bind them.

0af7e4dff5 drm/i915: Add support for precise vblank timestamping (v2)
v2: Change IS_IRONLAKE to IS_GEN5 to adapt to 2.6.37

This patch adds new functions for use by the drm core:

.get_vblank_timestamp() provides a precise timestamp
for the end of the most recent (or current) vblank
interval of a given crtc, as needed for the DRI2
implementation of the OML_sync_control extension.
It is a thin wrapper around the drm function
drm_calc_vbltimestamp_from_scanoutpos() which does
almost all the work.

.get_scanout_position() provides the current horizontal
and vertical video scanout position and "in vblank"
status of a given crtc, as needed by the drm for use by
drm_calc_vbltimestamp_from_scanoutpos().

The patch modifies the pageflip completion routine
to use these precise vblank timestamps as the timestamps
for pageflip completion events.

This code has been only tested on a HP-Mini Netbook with
Atom processor and Intel 945GME gpu. The codepath for
(IS_G4X(dev) || IS_GEN5(dev) || IS_GEN6(dev)) gpu's
has not been tested so far due to lack of hardware.

disabled due to some stability issues. However, just the deferred update
is a significant win.

Based on a series of patches by Daniel Vetter.

The premise is that before every access to a buffer through the GTT we
have to declare whether we need a register or not. If the access is by
the GPU, a pipelined update to the register is made via the ringbuffer,
and we track the last seqno of the batches that access it. If by the
CPU we wait for the last GPU access and update the register (either
to clear or to set it for the current buffer).

One advantage of being able to pipeline changes is that we can defer the
actual updating of the fence register until we first need to access the
object through the GTT, i.e. we can eliminate the stall on set_tiling.
This is important as the userspace bo cache does not track the tiling
status of active buffers which generate frequent stalls on gen3 when
enabling tiling for an already bound buffer.
