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.
Introduce tile members for future tiled buffer support.
Allow user-space to explicitly define a fence-class.
Remove the implicit fence-class mechanism.
64-bit wide buffer object flag member.
These require that the status page be referenced by a pointer in GTT, rather
than phsyical memory. So, we have the X Server allocate that memory and tell
us the address, instead.
Always use dev_priv->sarea_priv->pf_current_page directly. This allows clients
to modify it as well while they hold the HW lock, e.g. in order to sync pages
between pipes.
The assumption is that synchronous flips are not isolated usually, and waiting
for all of them could result in stalling the pipeline for long periods of time.
Also use i915_emit_mi_flush() instead of an old-fashioned way to achieve the
same effect.
Unfortunately, emitting asynchronous flips during vertical blank results in
tearing. So we have to wait for the previous vertical blank and emit a
synchronous flip.
Leave it to the client to wait for the flip to complete when necessary,
but wait for a previous flip to complete before emitting another one. This
should help avoid unnecessary stalling of the ring due to pending flips.
Call i915_do_cleanup_pageflip() unconditionally in preclose.
Memory types are either fixed (on-card or pre-bound AGP) or not fixed
(dynamically bound) to an aperture. They also carry information about:
1) Whether they can be mapped cached.
2) Whether they are at all mappable.
3) Whether they need an ioremap to be accessible from kernel space.
In this way VRAM memory and, for example, pre-bound AGP appear
identical to the memory manager.
This also makes support for unmappable VRAM simple to implement.
Fix buffer bound caching policy changing, Allow
on-the-fly changing of caching policy on bound buffers if the hardware
supports it.
Allow drivers to use driver-specific AGP memory types for TTM AGP pages.
Will make AGP drivers much easier to migrate.
This uses the core facility to schedule a driver callback that will be called
ASAP after the given vertical blank interrupt with the HW lock held.
(cherry picked from 257771fa29 commit)
When the vertical blank interrupt is enabled for both pipes, pipe A is
considered primary and pipe B secondary. When it's only enabled for one pipe,
it's always considered primary for backwards compatibility.
(cherry picked from 0c7d7f4361 commit)
0x00 EXE fence. Signals when command stream interpreter has reached the point
where the fence was emitted.
0x01 FLUSH fence. Signals when command stream interpreter has reached the point
where the fence was emitted, and all previous drawing operations have been
completed and flushed.
Implements busy wait (for fastest response time / high CPU) and
lazy wait (User interrupt or timer driven).
i915 vblanks can be generated from either pipe a or b, however a disabled
pipe generates no interrupts. This change allows the X server to select
which pipe generates vblank interrupts.
