 Sleep is just cond_resched below or there is more?

 If this patch is about adding a non-blocking send function, and below 
 we can
 see that it creates a fork:

 intel_guc_ct_send:
 ...
if (flags & INTEL_GUC_SEND_NB)
return ct_send_nb(ct, action, len, flags);

ret = ct_send(ct, action, len, response_buf, response_buf_size, 
 &status);

 Then why is there a change in ct_send here, which is not the new
 non-blocking path?

 What about this part - is the patch changing the blocking ct_send or not,
 and if it is why?

 There is not a change to ct_send(), just to intel_guc_ct_send.

Sleep is just cond_resched below or there is more?

If this patch is about adding a non-blocking send function, and below we can
see that it creates a fork:

intel_guc_ct_send:
...
if (flags & INTEL_GUC_SEND_NB)
return ct_send_nb(ct, action, len, flags);

ret = ct_send(ct, action, len, response_buf, response_buf_size, 
&status);

Then why is there a change in ct_send here, which is not the new
non-blocking path?



There is not a change to ct_send(), just to intel_guc_ct_send.

What about this part - is the patch changing the blocking ct_send or not,
and if it is why?



Yes, ct_send() changes. Sorry for the confusion.

This function needs to be updated to account for the H2G space and
backoff if no space is available.


Since this one is the sleeping path, it probably can and needs to be smarter
than having a cond_resched busy loop added. Like sleep and get woken up when
there is space. Otherwise it can degenerate to busy looping via contention
with the non-blocking path.



That screams over enginerring a simple problem to me. If the CT channel
is full we are really in trouble anyways - i.e. the performance is going
to terrible as we overwhelmed the GuC with traffic. That being said,


Performance of what would be terrible? Something relating to submitting 
new jobs to the GPU I guess. Or something SRIOV related as you hint below.


But there is no real reason why CPU cycles/power should suffer if GuC is 
busy.


Okay, if it can't happen in real world then it's possibly passable as a 
design of a communication interface. But to me it leaves a bad taste and 
a doubt that there is this other aspect of the real world. And that is 
when the unexpected happens. Even the most trivial things like

Sleep is just cond_resched below or there is more?



Yes, the cond_resched.

If this patch is about adding a non-blocking send function, and below we can
see that it creates a fork:

intel_guc_ct_send:
...
if (flags & INTEL_GUC_SEND_NB)
return ct_send_nb(ct, action, len, flags);

ret = ct_send(ct, action, len, response_buf, response_buf_size, 
&status);

Then why is there a change in ct_send here, which is not the new
non-blocking path?



There is not a change to ct_send(), just to intel_guc_ct_send.

So it looks like a change to ct_send to me. Is that wrong?


What about this part - is the patch changing the blocking ct_send or 
not, and if it is why?

Add non blocking CTB send function, intel_guc_send_nb. In order to

update the fence value as this value is owned by the blocking call
(intel_guc_send).


Could the commit message say why the non-blocking send function is needed?



Sure. Something like:

'CTBs will be used in the critical patch of GuC submission and there is
no need to wait for each CTB complete before moving on the i915'


A bit more, like also mentioning the critical path is with interrupts disabled 
or so. And not just that there is no need to wait but waiting is not possible 
because this or that. So only choice is to do this busy loop send. It's a bit 
horrible so justification needs to be documented.


The blocking CTB now must have a flow control mechanism to ensure the
buffer isn't overrun. A lazy spin wait is used as we believe the flow
control condition should be rare with properly sized buffer.

The function, intel_guc_send_nb, is exported in this patch but unused.
Several patches later in the series make use of this function.

It's safe to write to this reg? Does it need a comment to explain it?



Yes, it is same. IMO 'SCRATCH' in the name is enough documentation.


Why would it be enough? It requires digging to figure it out since it appears 
these are some sort of GuC special registers and not generic scratch:

drm/i915/guc: New GuC scratch registers for Gen11

If it was a normal scratch then async trashing of those from a random driver 
thread isn't per se safe if used from a GPU context running in parallel.

But then according to bspec they are called VF_SW_FLAG_ and not 
GEN11_SOFT_SCRATCH so yeah.

You can't do non-blocking without flow control, it just doesn't work.
IMO that makes the review harder.

Sure. Something like:

'CTBs will be used in the critical patch of GuC submission and there is
no need to wait for each CTB complete before moving on the i915'

Yes, it is same. IMO 'SCRATCH' in the name is enough documentation.

Could the commit message say why the non-blocking send function is needed?



The blocking CTB now must have a flow control mechanism to ensure the
buffer isn't overrun. A lazy spin wait is used as we believe the flow
control condition should be rare with properly sized buffer.

The function, intel_guc_send_nb, is exported in this patch but unused.
Several patches later in the series make use of this function.

all H2G messages are using "fence", nb variant also needs to update it

as this new nb function is still not used in this patch, then maybe
better to move flow control to separate patch for easier review ?

[Intel-gfx] [RFC PATCH 36/97] drm/i915/guc: Add non blocking CTB send function

2021-05-06 Thread Matthew Brost
Add non blocking CTB send function, intel_guc_send_nb. In order to
support a non blocking CTB send function a spin lock is needed to
protect the CTB descriptors fields. Also the non blocking call must not
update the fence value as this value is owned by the blocking call
(intel_guc_send).

The blocking CTB now must have a flow control mechanism to ensure the
buffer isn't overrun. A lazy spin wait is used as we believe the flow
control condition should be rare with properly sized buffer.

The function, intel_guc_send_nb, is exported in this patch but unused.
Several patches later in the series make use of this function.
