PCI- or high memory.
This is substantially more efficient than drm_bo_kmap,
since the mapping only lives on a single processor.
Unmapping is done use kunmap_atomic(). Flushes only a single tlb() entry.
Add a support utility int drm_bo_pfn_prot() that returns the
pfn and desired page protection for a given bo offset.
This is all intended for relocations in bound TTMS or vram.
Mapping-accessing-unmapping must be atomic, either using preempt_xx() macros
or a spinlock.
Flags pending validation were stored in a misleadingly named field, 'mask'.
As 'mask' is already used to indicate pieces of a flags field which are
changing, it seems better to use a name reflecting the actual purpose of
this field. I chose 'proposed_flags' as they may not actually end up in
'flags', and in an case will be modified when they are moved over.
This affects the API, but not ABI of the user-mode interface.
Aside from changing drm_bind_ttm to drm_ttm_bind, this patch
adds only documentation and fixes the functions inside drm_ttm.c
to all be prefixed with drm_ttm_.
Creating a ttm was done with drm_ttm_init while destruction was done with
drm_destroy_ttm. Renaming these to drm_ttm_create and drm_ttm_destroy makes
their use clearer. Passing page_flags to the create function will allow that
to know whether user or kernel pages are needed, with the goal of allowing
kernel ttms to be saved for later reuse.
Modify the TTM backend bind arguments.
Export a number of functions needed for driver-specific super-ioctls.
Add a function to map buffer objects from the kernel, regardless of where they're
currently placed.
A number of error fixes.
