Gen graphics hardware can be set up to periodically write snapshots of
performance counters into a circular buffer via its Observation
Architecture and this patch exposes that capability to userspace via the
i915 perf interface.
v2:
Make sure to initialize ->specific_ctx_id when opening, without
relying on _pin_notify hook, in case ctx already pinned.
v3:
Revert back to pinning ctx upfront when opening stream, removing
need to hook in to pinning and to update OACONTROL on the fly.

Adds base i915 perf infrastructure for Gen performance metrics.
This adds a DRM_IOCTL_I915_PERF_OPEN ioctl that takes an array of uint64
properties to configure a stream of metrics and returns a new fd usable
with standard VFS system calls including read() to read typed and sized
records; ioctl() to enable or disable capture and poll() to wait for
data.
A stream is opened something like:
uint64_t properties[] = {
/* Single context sampling */
DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_CTX_HANDLE, ctx_handle,
/* Include OA reports in samples */
DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_SAMPLE_OA, true,
/* OA unit configuration */
DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_OA_METRICS_SET, metrics_set_id,
DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_OA_FORMAT, report_format,
DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_OA_EXPONENT, period_exponent,
};
struct drm_i915_perf_open_param parm = {
.flags = I915_PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC |
I915_PERF_FLAG_FD_NONBLOCK |
I915_PERF_FLAG_DISABLED,
.properties_ptr = (uint64_t)properties,
.num_properties = sizeof(properties) / 16,
};
int fd = drmIoctl(drm_fd, DRM_IOCTL_I915_PERF_OPEN, ¶m);
Records read all start with a common { type, size } header with
DRM_I915_PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE being of most interest. Sample records
contain an extensible number of fields and it's the
DRM_I915_PERF_PROP_SAMPLE_xyz properties given when opening that
determine what's included in every sample.
No specific streams are supported yet so any attempt to open a stream
will return an error.
v2:
use i915_gem_context_get() - Chris Wilson
v3:
update read() interface to avoid passing state struct - Chris Wilson
fix some rebase fallout, with i915-perf init/deinit
v4:
s/DRM_IORW/DRM_IOW/ - Emil Velikov
