This patch adds serveral new ioctls and a new query to get_param query to
support PCI MGA cards.
Two ioctls were added to implement interrupt based waiting. With this
change, the client-side driver no longer needs to map the primary DMA
region or the MMIO region. Previously, end-of-frame waiting was done by
busy waiting in the client-side driver until one of the MMIO registers
(the current DMA pointer) matched a pointer to the end of primary DMA
space. By using interrupts, the busy waiting and the extra mappings are
removed.
A third ioctl was added to bootstrap DMA. This ioctl, which is used by the
X-server, moves a *LOT* of code from the X-server into the kernel. This
allows the kernel to do whatever needs to be done to setup DMA buffers.
The entire process and the locations of the buffers are hidden from
user-mode.
Additionally, a get_param query was added to differentiate between G4x0
cards and G550 cards. A gap was left in the numbering sequence so that,
if needed, G450 cards could be distinguished from G400 cards. According
to Ville Syrjälä, the G4x0 cards and the G550 cards handle
anisotropic filtering differently. This seems the most compatible way
to let the client-side driver know which card it's own. Doing this very
small change now eliminates the need to bump the DRM minor version
twice.

A number of ioctl handlers in linux-core were also modified so that they
could be called in-kernel. In these cases, the in-kernel callable
version kept the existing name (e.g., drm_agp_acquire) and the ioctl
handler added _ioctl to the name (e.g., drm_agp_acquire_ioctl).
This patch also replaces the drm_agp_do_release function with
drm_agp_release. drm_agp_release (drm_core_agp_release in the previous
patch) is very similar to drm_agp_do_release, and I saw no reason to
have both.
This commit *breaks the build* on BSD. Eric said that he would make the
required updates to the BSD side soon.
Xorg bug: 3259 Reviewed by: Eric Anholt
There were two problems. First, the 'warp' and 'primary' pointers weren't
cleared, so mga_do_cleanup_dma, which gets called multiple times, would
try to ioremapfree them multiple times. This resulted in the new error
messages to syslog. The second problem was the, since the dev_private
structure isn't reallocated and cleaned out in mga_do_init_dma, when
the server is reloaded idle-waits would wait for impossible values.
I have given this patch some more riggorous testing. This includes:
- Load module, start server, run GL app, stop server, unload module.
- Load module, start server, run GL app, stop server, unload module, reload
module, restart server, run GL app.
- Load module, start server, run GL app, stop server, restart server, run
GL app, stop server, unload module.
In all three cases, everything worked as expected. Please let me know if
there are any further regressions with this patch.
Xorg bug: 3408 Reported by: Chris Rankin
that a device absolutely is, absolutely is not, or may or may not be

"AGP" (even the PCI-e devices).

is now allocated (and partially filled in) by the new
mga_driver_preinit function.
This allows the driver to detect the type of card (i.e., G200 class vs.
G400 class) on its own. The chipset value passed to mga_dma_init is now
ignored. This same technique is used by the radeon DRM.
As a result of this, mga_driver_pretakedown was converted to
mga_driver_postcleanup. This routine gets called in some other places
than might be expected, and it sets the dev_private pointer to NULL.
That little gem took over an hour to track down. :(
platform-specific drm_device_is_agp function. Added implementation of
this function the the Linux-specific portion of the MGA driver to
detect PCI G450 cards. Added code to the Linux-specific portion of the
generic DRM layer to not initialize AGP infrastructure if the card is
not AGP (this matches what already existed in BSD).
Bumped the driver date and the driver patch-level for MGA.
This mostly fixes bugzilla #3248. The BSD side still needs an
implementation of mga_driver_device_is_agp.
with IOMMUs and such. There is one usage of the forbidden vtophys()
left in drm_scatter.c which will be fixed up soon. This required a KPI
change for drm_pci_alloc/free() to return/use a drm_dma_handle_t that
keeps track of os-specific bits, rather than just passing around the
vaddr/busaddr/size.

privileges on Radeon hardware. Essentially, a malicious program could
submit a packet containing an offset (possibly in main memory) to be
rendered from/to, while a separate thread switched that offset in
userspace rapidly between a valid value and an invalid one.
radeon_check_and_fixup_offset() would pull the offset in from user
space, check it, and spit it back out to user space to be copied in
later by the emit code. It would sometimes catch the bad value, but
sometimes the malicious program could modify it after the check and get
an invalid offset rendered from/to.
Fix this by allocating a temporary buffer and copying the data in at once.
While here, make the cliprects stuff not do the VERIFYAREA_READ and
COPY_FROM_USER_UNCHECKED gymnastics, avoiding a lock order reversal on
FreeBSD. Performance impact is negligible -- no difference on r200 to
~1% improvement on rv200 in quake3 tests (P4 1Ghz, demofour at
1024x768, n=4 or 5).
FreeBSD. Add drm_get_resource_{start|len} so linux-specific stuff
doesn't need to be in shared code.
- Fix mach64 build by using __DECONST to work around passing a const
pointer to useracc, which is unfortunately not marked const.
- Get rid of a lot of maplist code by not having dev->maplist be a pointer,
and by sticking the link entries directly in drm_local_map_t rather
than having a separate structure for the linked list.
- Factor out map uninit and removal into its own routine, rather than
duplicating in both drm_takedown() and drm_rmmap().
- Hook up more driver functions, and correct FreeBSD-specific bits of
radeon_cp.c, making radeon work.
- Baby steps towards using bus_space as we should.
ioctls with dev_lock, which is a major step toward being able to remove
Giant. Covers some new pieces (dev->unique*) in the core, and avoids
one call down into system internals with the drm lock held, which is
usually bad (FreeBSD LOR #23, #27).
code. Remove the "drv" from sisdrv, as it's unnecessary. Use the
drm_pci functions in i915 instead of per-os implementations of the
same. Avoid whitespace within fields in drm_pciids.txt (one of the r300
definitions), since it breaks the bsd pciids script. Tested on sis,
mga, r128. i915 needs more work.
done by Martin Lexa (martin at martinlexa dot cz). Now that we've got
porting for all three major BSDs (and the fourth being very similar to
FreeBSD), move the mostly-duplication drm_os_* files into drmP.h.
Remove some cruft from linux heritage and from pieces of the DRM that
have since been removed.
Note that things are still not quite working for even FreeBSD, but these
are first steps at cleanup, and just a WIP checkpoint.

DRM_IOCTL_VIA_DMA_INIT DRM_IOCTL_VIA_CMDBUFFER DRM_IOCTL_VIA_FLUSH
The first ioctl sets up an area in AGP memory that will be used as the ring
buffer. The second ioctl copies a command buffer from user space memory
to the ring buffer. The third ioctl waits for engine idle until it
returns.
The motivation for this patch is to avoid the wait for engine idle call
before each buffer flush in the current DRI driver. With this patch,
the DRI driver can continue to flush its buffer as long as there is
free space in the ring buffer.
This patch adds an additional copy operation on the command buffer. This
buffer copying is necessary to support multiple DRI clients rendering
simultaneously. Otherwise, more CPU time will be spent in the busy loop
waiting for engine idle between DRI context switch. Even in the single
client case, the tradeoff is reasonable in comparision to the kernel
call to check for free buffer space for the client to render directly
to the ring buffer.
