Otherwise kfd flush tlb does nothing if vm update fence callback doesn't
update vm->tlb_seq. H/W will generate retry fault again.

This works now because retry fault keep coming, recover will update page table again after AMDGPU_SVM_RANGE_RETRY_FAULT_PENDING timeout and flush
tlb.

I think what this patch does is waiting vm->last_update fence at gpu page fault retry handler. I do not know what bug it tries to fix. h/w will keep generating retry fault as long as vm page table is not setup correctly, no matter kfd driver waits the fence or not. vm page table eventually will be setup.

This issue was there, I notice it when implementing the granularity bitmap_mapped flag for mGPUs, to skip the retry fault if prange mapped on the GPU. The retry fault keep coming after updating GPU page table, because restore_pages -> svm_range_validate_and_map doesn't wait for vm update fence before kfd_flush_tlb.

Now I start knowing your change: it is a general issue for gpu retry fault handling that tlb flush did not happen actually since vm->tlb_seq was not updated as we did not give fence to amdgpu_vm_update_range.

It is working now because we handle the same retry fault again after timeout AMDGPU_SVM_RANGE_RETRY_FAULT_PENDING, and kfd_flush_tlb does flush on the second time

The issue only exist if using sdma update GPU page table, as no fence if cpu update GPU page table.

There are several todo items to optimize this further:

A. After updating GPU page table, we only wait for fence and flush tlb if updating existing mapping, or vm params.table_freed (this needs amdgpu vm interface change).

B. Use sync to wait mGPUs update fences.

C. Use multiple workers to handle restore_pages.


There is a consequence I saw: if we wait vm page table update fence it will delay gpu page fault handler exit. Then more h/w interrupt vectors will be sent to sw ring, potentially cause the ring overflow.

retry CAM filter, or sw filter drop the duplicate retry fault, to prevent sw ring overflow.

Inside sw ring there is not only gpu retry fault type, also has other interrupt types, right? These filters just drop interrupt, not make sure all interrupts needed to handle got handled. I mean delay gpu retry handler exist may drop more interrupts, some of them never got handled.  But I think this risk already existed, and we may need increase sw ring.

Remove wait parameter in svm_range_validate_and_map because it is
always called with true.
