Alex Deucher 724c80e1d6 drm/radeon/kms: enable writeback (v2)
When writeback is enabled, the GPU shadows writes to certain
registers into a buffer in memory.  The driver can then read
the values from the shadow rather than reading back from the
register across the bus.  Writeback can be disabled by setting
the no_wb module param to 1.

On r6xx/r7xx/evergreen, the following registers are shadowed:
- CP scratch registers
- CP read pointer
- IH write pointer
On r1xx-rr5xx, the following registers are shadowed:
- CP scratch registers
- CP read pointer

v2:
- Combine wb patches for r6xx-evergreen and r1xx-r5xx
- Writeback is disabled on AGP boards since it tends to be
unreliable on AGP using the gart.
- Check radeon_wb_init return values properly.

Dave Airlie 4c712e6c7e drm/radeon/kms: check/restore sanity before doing anything else with GPU.
On systems using kexec, the new kernel is booted straight from the old kernel, without any warning to the graphics driver. So the GPU is basically left as-is in a running state, however the CPU side is completly reset.

Without stating the saneness of anyone using kexec on live systems, we should at least try not to crash the GPU. This patch resets 3 registers to 0 that could cause bad things to happen to the running system.

This allows kexec to work on a Power6/RN50 system.

Alex Deucher c9e75b2125 drm/radeon/kms/pm: add mid profile
This adds an additional profile, mid, to the pm profile
code which takes the place of the old low profile.  The default
behavior remains the same, e.g., auto profile now selects between
mid and high profiles based on power source, however, you can now
manually force the low profile which was previously only available
as a dpms off state.  Enabling the low profile when the displays
are on has been known to cause display corruption in some cases.

Alex Deucher ce8f53709b drm/radeon/kms/pm: rework power management
- Separate dynpm and profile based power management methods.  You can select the pm method
  by echoing the selected method ("dynpm" or "profile") to power_method in sysfs.
- Expose basic 4 profile in profile method
  "default" - default clocks
  "auto" - select between low and high based on ac/dc state
  "low" - DC, low power mode
  "high" - AC, performance mode
  The current base profile is "default", but it should switched to "auto" once we've tested
  on more systems.  Switching the state is a matter of echoing the requested profile to
  power_profile in sysfs.  The lowest power states are selected automatically when dpms turns
  the monitors off in all states but default.
- Remove dynamic fence-based reclocking for the moment.  We can revisit this later once we
  have basic pm in.
- Move pm init/fini to modesetting path.  pm is tightly coupled with display state.  Make sure
  display side is initialized before pm.
- Add pm suspend/resume functions to make sure pm state is properly reinitialized on resume.
- Remove dynpm module option.  It's now selectable via sysfs.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Jerome Glisse d594e46ace drm/radeon/kms: simplify memory controller setup V2
Get rid of _location and use _start/_end also simplify the
computation of vram_start|end & gtt_start|end. For R1XX-R2XX
we place VRAM at the same address of PCI aperture, those GPU
shouldn't have much memory and seems to behave better when
setup that way. For R3XX and newer we place VRAM at 0. For
R6XX-R7XX AGP we place VRAM before or after AGP aperture this
might limit to limit the VRAM size but it's very unlikely.
For IGP we don't change the VRAM placement.

Tested on (compiz,quake3,suspend/resume):
PCI/PCIE:RV280,R420,RV515,RV570,RV610,RV710
AGP:RV100,RV280,R420,RV350,RV620(RPB*),RV730
IGP:RS480(RPB*),RS690,RS780(RPB*),RS880

RPB: resume previously broken

V2 correct commit message to reflect more accurately the bug
and move VRAM placement to 0 for most of the GPU to avoid
limiting VRAM.

Jerome Glisse 771fe6b912 drm/radeon: introduce kernel modesetting for radeon hardware
Add kernel modesetting support to radeon driver, use the ttm memory
manager to manage memory and DRM/GEM to provide userspace API.
In order to avoid backward compatibility issue and to allow clean
design and code the radeon kernel modesetting use different code path
than old radeon/drm driver.

When kernel modesetting is enabled the IOCTL of radeon/drm
driver are considered as invalid and an error message is printed
in the log and they return failure.

KMS enabled userspace will use new API to talk with the radeon/drm
driver. The new API provide functions to create/destroy/share/mmap
buffer object which are then managed by the kernel memory manager
(here TTM). In order to submit command to the GPU the userspace
provide a buffer holding the command stream, along this buffer
userspace have to provide a list of buffer object used by the
command stream. The kernel radeon driver will then place buffer
in GPU accessible memory and will update command stream to reflect
the position of the different buffers.

The kernel will also perform security check on command stream
provided by the user, we want to catch and forbid any illegal use
of the GPU such as DMA into random system memory or into memory
not owned by the process supplying the command stream. This part
of the code is still incomplete and this why we propose that patch
as a staging driver addition, future security might forbid current
experimental userspace to run.

This code support the following hardware : R1XX,R2XX,R3XX,R4XX,R5XX
(radeon up to X1950). Works is underway to provide support for R6XX,
R7XX and newer hardware (radeon from HD2XXX to HD4XXX).
