Hi all, I've finally managed to clean up my pwrite/pread rework. Major changes since the first submission: - fixed a bunch of bugs, some of them discovered by the intel-gpu-tools gem test suite - extracted the clflush helper into common drm code as suggested by Chris Wilson. - extended the prefault helpers in pagemap.h instead of rolling our own. Also add a patch to not prefault for writes (which change the userspace memory) before we're committed to the write. Both address issues raised by Keith Packard. Why this is cool stuff: - fixes the spurious -EFAULTS when handing in a pointer to a gem gtt mappings. See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38115 - Kills a bunch of code by dropping the practically useless ranged cpu read domain tracking and integrating the slow paths into the fast paths. - Fixes pwrite/pread to use snooped cpu access on llc machines, hereby decently speeding up microbenchmarks. - Paves the way for further clever tricks to reduce pressure on the mappable gtt area. Reviews and comments highly welcome.
