If we ever want to be able to use the 3D engine we have no choice. It
appears that the tiling setup (required for 3D on G8x) is in the page tables.
The immediate benefit of this change however is that it's now not possible
for a client to use the GPU to render over the top of important engine setup
tables, which also live in VRAM.
G8x VRAM size is limited to 512MiB at the moment, as we use a 1-1 mapping
of real vram pages to their offset within the start of a channel's VRAM
DMA object and only populate a single PDE for VRAM use.
1. DRM_NOUVEAU_GPUOBJ_FREE
Used to free GPU objects. The obvious usage case is for Gr objects,
but notifiers can also be destroyed in the same way.
GPU objects gain a destructor method and private data fields with
this change, so other specialised cases (like notifiers) can be
implemented on top of gpuobjs.
2. DRM_NOUVEAU_CHANNEL_FREE
3. DRM_NOUVEAU_CARD_INIT
Ideally we'd do init during module load, but this isn't currently
possible. Doing init during firstopen() is bad as X has a love of
opening/closing the DRM many times during startup. Once the
modesetting-101 branch is merged this can go away.
IRQs are enabled in nouveau_card_init() now, rather than having the
X server call drmCtlInstHandler(). We'll need this for when we give
the kernel module its own channel.
4. DRM_NOUVEAU_GETPARAM
Add CHIPSET_ID value, which will return the chipset id derived
from NV_PMC_BOOT_0.
4. Use list_* in a few places, rather than home-brewed stuff.
The data is now in kernel space, copied in/out as appropriate according to the
This results in DRM_COPY_{TO,FROM}_USER going away, and error paths to deal
with those failures. This also means that XFree86 4.2.0 support for i810 DRM
is lost.
As a fallout, replace filp storage with file_priv storage for "unique
identifier of a client" all over the DRM. There is a 1:1 mapping, so this
should be a noop. This could be a minor performance improvement, as everything
on Linux dereferenced filp to get file_priv anyway, while only the mmap ioctls
went the other direction.
This was used to make all ioctl handlers return -errno on linux and errno on
*BSD. Instead, just return -errno in shared code, and flip sign on return from
shared code to *BSD code.
Allows multiple references to a single object, needed to support PCI(E)GART
scatter-gather DMA objects which would quickly fill PRAMIN if each channel
had its own.
Handle per-channel private instmem areas. This is needed to support NV50,
but might be something we want to do on earlier chipsets at some point?
Everything that touches PRAMIN is a GPU object.
For various reasons, this ioctl was a bad idea.
At channel creation we now automatically create DMA objects covering
available VRAM and GART memory, where the client used to do this themselves.
However, there is still a need to be able to create DMA objects pointing at
specific areas of memory (ie. notifiers). Each channel is now allocated a
small amount of memory from which a client can suballocate things (such as
notifiers), and have a DMA object created which covers the suballocated area.
The NOTIFIER_ALLOC ioctl exposes this functionality.
graphics objects:
- No longer takes flags/dmaobj parameters, requires some major changes
to the ddx to setup the object through the FIFO. This change is
likely to cause breakages on some cards (tested on NV05,NV28,NV35,
NV40 and NV4E).
dma objects:
- now takes a "class" parameter, not really used yet but we may need
it at some point.
- parameters are checked, so clients can't randomly create DMA objects
pointing at whatever they feel like.
misc:
- Added FB_SIZE/AGP_SIZE getparams
- Read PFIFO_INTR in PFIFO irq handler, not PMC_INTR
- Dump PGRAPH trap info on PGRAPH_INTR_NOTIFY if NSOURCE isn't
NOTIFICATION_PENDING.
- Do important card init in firstopen
- Give each channel it's own cmdbuf dma object
- Move RAMHT config state to the same place as RAMRO/RAMFC
- Make sure instance mem for objects is *after* RAM{FC,HT,RO}
Ok, I lied before.. it was a fluke it worked and required magic to repeat it..
It actually helps to fill in RAMFC entries in the correct place.
The code also clears RAMIN entirely instead of just the hash-table.
- Mark the correct RAMIN slots as free (oops)
- Remove a VRAM alloc that shouldn't have been there (oops)
- Move HT init out of firstopen() and into dma_init()
- Setup PFIFO_RAM{HT,FC,RO} in pfifo_init()
