I haven't got any great ideas so far, but it feels that will be easier
and cleaner if we could have separate job paths (and job IOCTLS) based
on hardware generation since the workloads a too different. The needs of
a newer h/w are too obscure for me and absence of userspace code,
firmware sources and full h/w documentation do not help.
There still should be quite a lot to share, but things like
mapping-to-channel and VM sync points are too far away from older h/w,
IMO. This means that code path before drm-sched and path for job-timeout
handling should be separate.
Maybe later on it will become cleaner that we actually could unify it
all nicely, but for now it doesn't look like a good idea to me.
Mikko, do you have any objections to trying out variant with the
separate paths?
