Instead of synchronously cancelling the timer and re-enabling it inside
the reset callbacks, keep the timer enabled and let it die on its next
wakeup if no longer required. This allows
intel_engine_reset_breadcrumbs() to be used from an atomic
(timer/softirq) context such as required for resetting an engine.
It also allows us to react better to the user poking around debugfs for
testing missed irqs.
v2: Tighten the order of del_timer_sync as the fake_irq timer
may trigger the hangcheck timer, and so we should cancel it first and
then cancel the hangcheck (Mika)

The goal here is to try and reduce the latency of signaling additional
requests following the wakeup from interrupt by reducing the list of
to-be-signaled requests from an rbtree to a sorted linked list. The
original choice of using an rbtree was to facilitate random insertions
of request into the signaler while maintaining a sorted list. However,
if we assume that most new requests are added when they are submitted,
we see those new requests in execution order making a insertion sort
fast, and the reduction in overhead of each signaler iteration
significant.
Since commit 56299fb7d9 ("drm/i915: Signal first fence from irq handler
if complete"), we signal most fences directly from notify_ring() in the
interrupt handler greatly reducing the amount of work that actually
needs to be done by the signaler kthread. All the thread is then
required to do is operate as the bottom-half, cleaning up after the
interrupt handler and preparing the next waiter. This includes signaling
all later completed fences in a saturated system, but on a mostly idle
system we only have to rebuild the wait rbtree in time for the next
interrupt. With this de-emphasis of the signaler's role, we want to
rejig it's datastructures to reduce the amount of work we require to
both setup the signal tree and maintain it on every interrupt.

If we remember to cancel the signaler on a request when retiring it
(after we know that the request has been signaled), we do not need to
carry an additional request in the signaler itself. This prevents an
issue whereby the signaler threads may be delayed and hold on to
thousands of request references, causing severe memory fragmentation and
premature oom (most noticeable on 32b snb due to the limited GFP_KERNEL
and frequent use of inter-engine fences).

Previously, we relied on only running the hangcheck while somebody was
waiting on the GPU, in order to minimise the amount of time hangcheck
had to run. (If nobody was watching the GPU, nobody would notice if the
GPU wasn't responding -- eventually somebody would care and so kick
hangcheck into action.) However, this falls apart from around commit
4680816be3 ("drm/i915: Wait first for submission, before waiting for
request completion"), as not all waiters declare themselves to hangcheck
and so we could switch off hangcheck and miss GPU hangs even when
waiting under the struct_mutex.
If we enable hangcheck from the first request submission, and let it run
until the GPU is idle again, we forgo all the complexity involved with
only enabling around waiters. We just have to remember to be careful that
we do not declare a GPU hang when idly waiting for the next request to
be come ready, as we will run hangcheck continuously even when the
engines are stalled waiting for external events. This should be true
already as we should only be tracking requests submitted to hardware for
execution as an indicator that the engine is busy.

If we attempt to wake up a waiter, who is currently checking the seqno
it will be in the TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state and ttwu will report success.
However, it is actually awake and functioning -- so delay reporting the
actual wake up until it sleeps. This fixes some spurious claims of
missed_breadcrumbs when running under heavy load; i.e. sufficient load to
preempt away the newly woken waiter before they complete their checks.
However, it does so at the cost of a rare false negative; where the
waiter changes between the check and ttwu -- the only way to fix that
would be to extend the reporting from ttwu where the check could be done
atomically.

The intent here was that we would be listening to
i915_gem_request_unsubmit in order to cancel the signaler quickly and
release the reference on the request. Cancelling the signaler is done
directly via intel_engine_cancel_signaling (called from unsubmit), but
that does not directly wake up the signaling thread, and neither does
setting the request->global_seqno back to zero wake up listeners to the
request->execute waitqueue. So the only time that listening to the
request->execute waitqueue would wake up the signaling kthread would be
on the request resubmission, during which time we would already receive
wake ups from rejoining the global breadcrumbs wait rbtree.
Trying to wake up to release the request remains an issue. If the
signaling was cancelled and no other request required signaling, then it
is possible for us to shutdown with the reference on the request still
held. To ensure that we do not try to shutdown, leaking that request, we
kick the signaling threads whenever we disarm the breadcrumbs, i.e. on
parking the engine when idle.
v2: We do need to be sure to release the last reference on stopping the
kthread; asserting that it has been dropped already is insufficient.

When we call intel_engine_cancel_signaling() to stop reporting when
a request is completed via an asynchronous signal, we remove that request
from the breadcrumb wait queue. However, we may be concurrently
processing that request in the signaler itself, the actual operations on
the request's node itself are serialised but we do not actually clear the
waiter after removing it from the tree allowing both parties to attempt
to do so and corrupting the rbtree. (Previously removing from the
breadcrumb wait queue could only be done on behalf of i915_wait_request,
so this race could not happen).

The execlists emulation on top of the GuC (used for scheduling and
preemption) depends on the MI_USER_INTERRUPT for its notifications and
tasklet action. As we always employ the irq, there is no advantage in
ever disabling it while we are using the GuC, so allow us to arm the
breadcrumb irq when enabling GuC submission and disarm upon disabling.
The impact should be lessened by the delayed irq disabling we do (we
only disable after receiving an interrupt for which no one was wanting),
but allowing guc to explicitly manage the irq in relation to itself is
simpler and prevents an issue with losing an interrupt for preemption
as it is not coupled to an active request.
Internally, we add a reference counter (breadcrumbs.irq_enabled) as a
simple mechanism to allow GuC to keep the breadcrumb irq enabled. To
improve upon always enabling the irq while guc is selected, we need
to hook into the parking facility of intel_engines so that we only enable
the breadcrumbs while the GT is active (one step better would be to
individually park/unpark each engine).
In effect, this means that we keep the breadcrumb irq always enabled for
the entire duration the guc is busy, whereas before we would try to
switch it off whenever we idled for more than interrupt with no
associated waiters. The difference *should* be negligible in practice!
v2: Stop abusing fence signaling (and its auxiliary data structures) to
enable the breadcrumbs irqs.

If the engine is continually completing nops, we can saturate the
signaler and keep it working indefinitely. This angers the NMI watchdog!
A good example is to disable semaphores on snb and run igt/gem_exec_nop -
the parallel, multi-engine workloads are more than sufficient to hog the
CPU, preventing the system from even processing ICMP echo replies.
v2: Tvrtko dug into cond_resched() on x86 and found that it only
depended upon preempt_count and not tif_need_resched() - which means
that we would always call schedule() at that point.

When adding a new request to the breadcrumb rbtree, we mark all those

wakes those waiters up and allows them to skip the spinlock before
returning to userspace. If one of those is the current bottom-half and
allocated its intel_wait on the stack, it may then overwrite the
b->irq_wait upon exiting i915_wait_request() just as the interrupt handler

A significant cost in setting up a wait is the overhead of enabling the
interrupt. As we disable the interrupt whenever the queue of waiters is
empty, if we are frequently waiting on alternating batches, we end up
re-enabling the interrupt on a frequent basis. We do want to disable the
interrupt during normal operations as under high load it may add several
thousand interrupts/s - we have been known in the past to occupy whole
cores with our interrupt handler after accidentally leaving user
interrupts enabled. As a compromise, leave the interrupt enabled until
the next IRQ, or the system is idle. This gives a small window for a
waiter to keep the interrupt active and not be delayed by having to
re-enable the interrupt.
