Kernel DRM driver for ARM Mali 400/450 GPUs. This implementation mainly take amdgpu DRM driver as reference. - Mali 4xx GPUs have two kinds of processors GP and PP. GP is for OpenGL vertex shader processing and PP is for fragment shader processing. Each processor has its own MMU so prcessors work in virtual address space. - There's only one GP but multiple PP (max 4 for mali 400 and 8 for mali 450) in the same mali 4xx GPU. All PPs are grouped togather to handle a single fragment shader task divided by FB output tiled pixels. Mali 400 user space driver is responsible for assign target tiled pixels to each PP, but mali 450 has a HW module called DLBU to dynamically balance each PP's load. - User space driver allocate buffer object and map into GPU virtual address space, upload command stream and draw data with CPU mmap of the buffer object, then submit task to GP/PP with a register frame indicating where is the command stream and misc settings. - There's no command stream validation/relocation due to each user process has its own GPU virtual address space. GP/PP's MMU switch virtual address space before running two tasks from different user process. Error or evil user space code just get MMU fault or GP/PP error IRQ, then the HW/SW will be recovered. - Use TTM as MM. TTM_PL_TT type memory is used as the content of lima buffer object which is allocated from TTM page pool. all lima buffer object gets pinned with TTM_PL_FLAG_NO_EVICT when allocation, so there's no buffer eviction and swap for now. We need reverse engineering to see if and how GP/PP support MMU fault recovery (continue execution). Otherwise we have to pin/unpin each envolved buffer when task creation/deletion.
Well pinning all memory is usually a no-go for upstreaming. But since you are already using the drm_sched for GPU task scheduling why are you actually needing this?
The scheduler should take care of signaling all fences when the hardware is done with it's magic and that is enough for TTM to note that a buffer object is movable again (e.g. unpin them).

- Use drm_sched for GPU task schedule. Each OpenGL context should have a lima context object in the kernel to distinguish tasks from different user. drm_sched gets task from each lima context in a fair way. Not implemented: - Dump buffer support - Power management - Performance counter This patch serial just pack a pair of .c/.h files in each patch.
