drm/i915: Implement a framework for batch buffer pools
This adds a small module for managing a pool of batch buffers.
The only current use case is for the command parser, as described
in the kerneldoc in the patch. The code is simple, but separating
it out makes it easier to change the underlying algorithms and to
extend to future use cases should they arise.
The interface is simple: init to create an empty pool, fini to
clean it up, get to obtain a new buffer. Note that all buffers are
expected to be inactive before cleaning up the pool.
Locking is currently based on the caller holding the struct_mutex.
We already do that in the places where we will use the batch pool
for the command parser.
v2:
- s/BUG_ON/WARN_ON/ for locking assertions
- Remove the cap on pool size
- Switch from alloc/free to init/fini
v3:
- Idiomatic looping structure in _fini
- Correct handling of purged objects
- Don't return a buffer that's too much larger than needed
v4:
- Rebased to latest -nightly
v5:
- Remove _put() function and clean up comments to match
v6:
- Move purged check inside the loop (danvet, from v4 1/7 feedback)
v7:
- Use single list instead of two. (Chris W)
- s/active_list/cache_list
- Squashed in debug patches (Chris W)
drm/i915: Add a batch pool debugfs file
It provides some useful information about the buffers in
the global command parser batch pool.
v2: rebase on global pool instead of per-ring pools
v3: rebase
drm/i915: Add batch pool details to i915_gem_objects debugfs
To better account for the potentially large memory consumption
of the batch pool.
v8:
- Keep cache in LRU order (danvet, from v6 1/5 feedback)
