      drm/i915: Add tracepoints · 1c5d22f7
      Chris Wilson authored
      By adding tracepoint equivalents for WATCH_BUF/EXEC we are able to monitor
      the lifetimes of objects, requests and significant events. These events can
      then be probed using the tracing frameworks, such as systemtap and, in
      particular, perf.
      
      For example to record the stack trace for every GPU stall during a run, use
      
        $ perf record -e i915:i915_gem_request_wait_begin -c 1 -g
      
      And
      
        $ perf report
      
      to view the results.
      
      [Updated to fix compilation issues caused.]

      drm/i915: Only destroy a constructed mmap offset · 7e616158
      Chris Wilson authored
      drm_ht_remove_item() does not handle removing an absent item and the hlist
      in particular is incorrectly initialised. The easy remedy is simply skip
      calling i915_gem_free_mmap_offset() unless we have actually created the
      offset and associated ht entry.
      
      This also fixes the mishandling of a partially constructed offset which
      leaves pointers initialized after freeing them along the
      i915_gem_create_mmap_offset() error paths.
      
      In particular this should fix the oops found here:

      agp/intel: Fix the pre-9xx chipset flush. · e517a5e9
      Eric Anholt authored
      Ever since we enabled GEM, the pre-9xx chipsets (particularly 865) have had
      serious stability issues.  Back in May a wbinvd was added to the DRM to
      work around much of the problem.  Some failure remained -- easily visible
      by dragging a window around on an X -retro desktop, or by looking at bugzilla.
      
      The chipset flush was on the right track -- hitting the right amount of
      memory, and it appears to be the only way to flush on these chipsets, but the
      flush page was mapped uncached.  As a result, the writes trying to clear the
      writeback cache ended up bypassing the cache, and not flushing anything!  The
      wbinvd would flush out other writeback data and often cause the data we wanted
      to get flushed, but not always.  By removing the setting of the page to UC
      and instead just clflushing the data we write to try to flush it, we get the
      desired behavior with no wbinvd.
      
      This exports clflush_cache_range(), which was laying around and happened to
      basically match the code I was otherwise going to copy from the DRM.

      drm/i915: framebuffer compression for pre-GM45 · 80824003
      Jesse Barnes authored
      This patch adds framebuffer compression (good for about ~0.5W power
      savings in the best case) support for pre-GM45 chips.  GM45+ have a new,
      more flexible FBC scheme that will be added in a separate patch.
      
      FBC can't always be enabled: the compressed buffer must be physically
      contiguous and reside in stolen space.  So if you have a large display
      and a small amount of stolen memory, you may not be able to take
      advantage of FBC.  In some cases, a BIOS setting controls how much
      stolen space is available.  Increasing this to 8 or 16M can help.
