We'd like to revisit the proposal of a GPU cgroup controller for managing GPU devices but with just a basic set of controls. This series is based on the prior patch series from Kenny Ho [1]. We take Kenny's base patches which implement the basic framework for the controller, but we propose an alternate set of control files. Here we've taken a subset of the controls proposed in earlier discussion on ML here [2]. This series proposes a set of device memory controls (gpu.memory.current, gpu.memory.max, and gpu.memory.total) and accounting of GPU time usage (gpu.sched.runtime). GPU time sharing controls are left as future work. These are implemented within the GPU controller along with integration/usage of the device memory controls by the i915 device driver. As an accelerator or GPU device is similar in many respects to a CPU with (or without) attached system memory, the basic principle here is try to copy the semantics of existing controls from other controllers when possible and where these controls serve the same underlying purpose. For example, the memory.max and memory.current controls are based on same controls from MEMCG controller. Following with the implementation used by the existing RDMA controller, here we introduce a general purpose drm_cgroup_try_charge and uncharge pair of exported functions. These functions are to be used for charging and uncharging all current and future DRM resource controls. Patches 1 - 4 are part original work and part refactoring of the prior work from Kenny Ho from his series for GPU / DRM controller v2 [1]. Patches 5 - 7 introduce new controls to the GPU / DRM controller for device memory accounting and GPU time tracking. Patch 8 introduces DRM support for associating GEM objects with a cgroup. Patch 9 implements i915 changes to use cgroups for device memory charging and enforcing device memory allocation limit.
