[PATCH 0/4] drm/msm: uapi updates

[Rob Clark]

This applies on top of this patchset from Jordan Crouse:

  https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/52193/

But with patch 8/9 dropped, and instead support to set debug name added
to the GEM_INFO ioctl.  This was mainly motivated by freedreno's user-
space bo cache, where a buffer can be recycled for a different purpose
(and therefore a debug name set at GEM_NEW time would no be no longer
valid).

For now you can find the corresponding userspace:

  https://github.com/freedreno/mesa/commits/wip/invalidate-all-the-things

  drm/msm/gpu: add submit flag to hint which buffers should be dumped

[PATCH 1/4] drm/msm/gpu: add submit flag to hint which buffers should be dumped

[Rob Clark]

To lower CPU  overhead, future userspace will be switching to pinning
iova and avoiding the use of relocs, and only include cmds table entries
for IB1 level cmdstream (but not IB2 or state-groups).

This leaves the kernel unsure what to dump for rd/hangrd cmdstream
dumping.  So add a MSM_SUBMIT_BO_DUMP flag so userspace can indicate
buffers that contain cmdstream (or are otherwise important to dump).

I don't know the background here, but generally speaking we don't have
version numbers for ioctls in kernel drivers. Instead, the old ioctls
need to remain functional, but you can add new ioctl commands
in addition.

Is there something that makes this driver special?

As structure with implicit padding has the problem of possibly leaking
kernel stack data. It's better to make the padding explicit here so you
can zero it from the kernel. Also, as I mentioned in the other patch,
you probably need a new data structure and ioctl command number
to keep compatiblity with the old interface.

hmm, right, pad field is a good idea.  As far as compat, drm_ioctl()
handles zero-padding so adding new ioctl struct members at the end is
safe (as long as a zero value somehow results in previous behavior)

The version # indicates to userspace that some new features are
supported, so that new userspace on kernel can work.  For example, the
userspace side of setting a GEM obj debug name is:


static void msm_bo_set_name(struct fd_bo *bo, const char *fmt, va_list ap)
{
    struct drm_msm_gem_info req = {
            .handle = bo->handle,
            .info = MSM_INFO_SET_NAME,
    };
    char buf[32];
    int sz;

    /* bail if kernel doesn't support this: */
    if (bo->dev->version < FD_VERSION_SOFTPIN)
        return;

    sz = vsnprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), fmt, ap);

    req.value = VOID2U64(buf);
    req.len = MIN2(sz, sizeof(buf));

    drmCommandWrite(bo->dev->fd, DRM_MSM_GEM_INFO, &req, sizeof(req));
}

So that version check seems harmless, but also not necessary,
at least in this case, right? I would assume that calling into
drmCommandWrite() with an invalid command will only return
an error, which then gets ignored, where with the check, we
would skip the call, knowing that it wont't work.

In this case, yes, probably a better example would be v1.1.0 when
support for >4 cmd buffers was added.  For older kernels userspace has
to structure the cmdstream in a less efficient way to work around that
limitation.

I guess these are things where a dummy ioctl call to probe whether
kernel returns an error could be used.. but that gets awkward.
