With the global kmem_cache shrink infrastructure gone there's nothing
special and we can convert them over.
I'm doing this split up into each patch because there's quite a bit of
noise with removing the static global.slab_dependencies|priorities to just a
slab_dependencies|priorities.

Introduce i915_sched_engine object which is lower level data structure
that i915_scheduler / generic code can operate on without touching
execlist specific structures. This allows additional submission backends
to be added without breaking the layering. Currently the execlists
backend uses 1 of these object per each engine (physical or virtual) but
future backends like the GuC will point to less instances utilizing the
reference counting.
This is a bit of detour to integrating the i915 with the DRM scheduler
but this object will still exist when the DRM scheduler lands in the
i915. It will however look a bit different. It will encapsulate the
drm_gpu_scheduler object plus and common variables (to the backends)
related to scheduling. Regardless this is a step in the right direction.
This patch starts the aforementioned transition by moving the priolist
into the i915_sched_engine object.

We recorded the dependencies for WAIT_FOR_SUBMIT in order that we could
correctly perform priority inheritance from the parallel branches to the
common trunk. However, for the purpose of timeslicing and reset
handling, the dependency is weak -- as we the pair of requests are
allowed to run in parallel and not in strict succession.
The real significance though is that this allows us to rearrange
groups of WAIT_FOR_SUBMIT linked requests along the single engine, and
so can resolve user level inter-batch scheduling dependencies from user
semaphores.

As we start peeking into requests for longer and longer, e.g.
incorporating use of spinlocks when only protected by an
rcu_read_lock(), we need to be careful in how we reset the request when
recycling and need to preserve any barriers that may still be in use as
the request is reset for reuse.
Quoting Linus Torvalds:
> If there is refcounting going on then why use SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU?
.. because the object can be accessed (by RCU) after the refcount has
gone down to zero, and the thing has been released.
That's the whole and only point of SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU.
That flag basically says:
"I may end up accessing this object *after* it has been free'd,
because there may be RCU lookups in flight"
This has nothing to do with constructors. It's ok if the object gets
reused as an object of the same type and does *not* get
re-initialized, because we're perfectly fine seeing old stale data.
What it guarantees is that the slab isn't shared with any other kind
of object, _and_ that the underlying pages are free'd after an RCU
quiescent period (so the pages aren't shared with another kind of
object either during an RCU walk).
And it doesn't necessarily have to have a constructor, because the
thing that a RCU walk will care about is
(a) guaranteed to be an object that *has* been on some RCU list (so
it's not a "new" object)
(b) the RCU walk needs to have logic to verify that it's still the
*same* object and hasn't been re-used as something else.
In contrast, a SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU memory gets free'd and re-used
immediately, but because it gets reused as the same kind of object,
the RCU walker can "know" what parts have meaning for re-use, in a way
it couidn't if the re-use was random.
That said, it *is* subtle, and people should be careful.
> So the re-use might initialize the fields lazily, not necessarily using a ctor.
If you have a well-defined refcount, and use "atomic_inc_not_zero()"
to guard the speculative RCU access section, and use
"atomic_dec_and_test()" in the freeing section, then you should be
safe wrt new allocations.
If you have a completely new allocation that has "random stale
content", you know that it cannot be on the RCU list, so there is no
speculative access that can ever see that random content.
So the only case you need to worry about is a re-use allocation, and
you know that the refcount will start out as zero even if you don't
have a constructor.
So you can think of the refcount itself as always having a zero
constructor, *BUT* you need to be careful with ordering.
In particular, whoever does the allocation needs to then set the
refcount to a non-zero value *after* it has initialized all the other
fields. And in particular, it needs to make sure that it uses the
proper memory ordering to do so.
NOTE! One thing to be very worried about is that re-initializing
whatever RCU lists means that now the RCU walker may be walking on the
wrong list so the walker may do the right thing for this particular
entry, but it may miss walking *other* entries. So then you can get
spurious lookup failures, because the RCU walker never walked all the
way to the end of the right list. That ends up being a much more
subtle bug.

Normally, we try and skip submission if ELSP[1] is filled. However, we
may desire to enable timeslicing due to the queue priority, even if
ELSP[1] itself does not require timeslicing. That is the queue is equal
priority to ELSP[0] and higher priority then ELSP[1]. Previously, we
would wait until the context switch to preempt the current ELSP[1], but
with timeslicing, we want to preempt ELSP[0] and replace it with the
queue.
In writing the test case, it become quickly apparent that we were also
suppressing the tasklet during promotion and so failing to notice when
the queue started requiring timeslicing.

We don't want to busywait on the GPU if we have other work to do. If we
give non-busywaiting workloads higher (initial) priority than workloads
that require a busywait, we will prioritise work that is ready to run
immediately. We then also have to be careful that we don't give earlier
semaphores an accidental boost because later work doesn't wait on other
rings, hence we keep a history of semaphore usage of the dependency chain.
v2: Stop rolling the bits into a chain and just use a flag in case this
request or any of our dependencies use a semaphore. The rolling around
was contagious as Tvrtko was heard to fall off his chair.

WAIT is occasionally suppressed by virtue of preempted requests being
promoted to NEWCLIENT if they have not all ready received that boost.
Make this consistent for all WAIT boosts that they are not allowed to
preempt executing contexts and are merely granted the right to be at the
front of the queue for the next execution slot. This is in keeping with
the desire that the WAIT boost be a minor tweak that does not give
excessive promotion to its user and open ourselves to trivial abuse.
The problem with the inconsistent WAIT preemption becomes more apparent
as the preemption is propagated across the engines, where one engine may
preempt and the other not, and we be relying on the exact execution
order being consistent across engines (e.g. using HW semaphores to
coordinate parallel execution).
v2: Also protect GuC submission from false preemption loops.
v3: Build bug safeguards and better debug messages for st.
v4: Do the priority bumping in unsubmit (i.e. on preemption/reset
unwind), applying it earlier during submit causes out-of-order execution
combined with execute fences.

As kmem_caches share the same properties (size, allocation/free behaviour)
for all potential devices, we can use global caches. While this
potential has worse fragmentation behaviour (one can argue that
different devices would have different activity lifetimes, but you can
also argue that activity is temporal across the system) it is the
default behaviour of the system at large to amalgamate matching caches.
The benefit for us is much reduced pointer dancing along the frequent
allocation paths.

Taken from an idea used for FQ_CODEL, we give the first request of a
new request flows a small priority boost. These flows are likely to
correspond with short, interactive tasks and so be more latency sensitive
than the longer free running queues. As soon as the client has more than
one request in the queue, further requests are not boosted and it settles
down into ordinary steady state behaviour. Such small kicks dramatically
help combat the starvation issue, by allowing each client the opportunity
to run even when the system is under heavy throughput load (within the
constraints of the user selected priority).
v2: Mark the preempted request as the start of a new flow, to prevent a
single client being continually gazumped by its peers.
