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.
All nv30 functions in nv30_graph.c that can be used on nv20 are renamed
as accordingly. nv20 specific parts from nv20_graph.c are moved into
nv30_graph.c.
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.
Following my nv28 kmmio dumps, nouveau_wait_for_idle() is modified to
read PTIMER and NV03_PMC_ENABLE. Also a timeout based on PTIMER value is
added, so wait_for_idle() cannot stall indefinitely (unless PTIMER is
halted). The timeout was selected as 1 giga-ticks, which for me is 1s.
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.
