We want to unconditionally enable ppgtt for two reasons:
- Windows uses this on snb and later.
- We need the basic hw support to work before we can think about real
per-process address spaces and other cool features we want.
But Chris Wilson was complaining all over irc and intel-gfx that this
will blow up if we don't have a module option to disable it. Hence add
one, to prevent this.
ppgtt support seems to slightly change the timings and make crashy
things slightly more or less crashy. Now in my testing and the testing
this got on troublesome snb machines, it seems to have improved things
only. But on ivb it makes quite a few crashes happen much more often,
see
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41353
Luckily Eugeni Dodonov seems to have a set of workarounds that fix
this issue.
v2: Don't try to enable ppgtt on pre-snb.
v3: Pimp commit message and make Chris Wilson less grumpy by adding a
module option.
v4: New try at making Chris Wilson happy.

On gen5 we also need to correctly set up swizzling in the display
scanout engine, but only there. Consolidate this into the same

This has a small effect on ums setups - the kernel now also sets this

runs when userspace either can't (resume, gpu reset) or explicitly

... instead of get_user_pages, because that fails on non page-backed
user addresses like e.g. a gtt mapping of a bo.
To get there essentially copy the vfs read path into pagecache. We
can't call that right away because we have to take care of bit17
swizzling. To not deadlock with our own pagefault handler we need
to completely drop struct_mutex, reducing the atomicty-guarantees
of our userspace abi. Implications for racing with other gem ioctl:
- execbuf, pwrite, pread: Due to -EFAULT fallback to slow paths there's
already the risk of the pwrite call not being atomic, no degration.
- read/write access to mmaps: already fully racy, no degration.
- set_tiling: Calling set_tiling while reading/writing is already
pretty much undefined, now it just got a bit worse. set_tiling is
only called by libdrm on unused/new bos, so no problem.
- set_domain: When changing to the gtt domain while copying (without any
read/write access, e.g. for synchronization), we might leave unflushed
data in the cpu caches. The clflush_object at the end of pwrite_slow
takes care of this problem.
- truncating of purgeable objects: the shmem_read_mapping_page call could
reinstate backing storage for truncated objects. The check at the end
of pwrite_slow takes care of this.

The original intention of comparing the bo against the mappable GTT
limits was to prevent a subsequent faulting of the bo into the GTT from
clearing the entire GTT in vain. However, that was clearly a cut'n'paste
mistake as a CPU mapping never binds the bo into the aperture. Whilst
there may be some merit to limiting the maximum size of the bo to
something that can be utilized by the GPU, that limit itself does not
belong as a safeguard to mmapping the bo, so remove the check entirely.

In order to correctly account for reserving space in the GTT and fences
for a batch buffer, we need to independently track whether the fence is
pinned due to a fenced GPU access in the batch or whether the buffer is
pinned in the aperture. Currently we count the fenced as pinned if the
buffer has already been seen in the execbuffer. This leads to a false
accounting of available fence registers, causing frequent mass evictions.
Worse, if coupled with the change to make i915_gem_object_get_fence()
report EDADLK upon fence starvation, the batchbuffer can fail with only
one fence required...

Every time we go through this we need a

- and there are no other references to that object than the one from
the active list, so that it gets unbound and freed immediately.
Otherwise the recursion stops. So the recursion is only limited by the

any time retire_request is called.
