BTW - Would you like me to review work like this? I'm totally happy to do
that, although I'm not terribly familiar with these parts of nouveau/drm (but
I'm always willing to learn, and would like to know more about these areas
anyway :)
Of course, that's absolutely welcome. :)
…if the answer is yes, this patch looks fine to me so far - I guess the one
question I have that might have an obvious answer - how are jobs without an
job->ops->timeout callback cleaned up?
Currently there are only two types of jobs, EXEC jobs and VM_BIND jobs.
EXEC jobs do have the callback, where on timeout the fence context is killed and
hence pending fences for this channel are signaled with an error code. Queued up
jobs from the channel's corresponding entity are discarded.
VM_BIND jobs still execute on the CPU and can't really time out. Well, technically, they
actually could, since drm_sched_job_begin() is called before the run_job() callback.
However, this would require mapping / unmapping stuff taking an absolutely unreasonable
amount of time. But even then it'd be safe because drm_sched_stop() would block until
the run_job() callback returns and subsequently the job would be cleaned up by
drm_sched_stop() since we'd pass it to drm_sched_stop() as 'bad' job.
However, I'm also working on a series [1] to make use of the DRM_SCHED_POLICY_SINGLE_ENTITY
work from Matt [2] in order to properly support the firmware scheduler.

Always stop and re-start the scheduler in order to let the scheduler
free up the timedout job in case it got signaled. In case of exec jobs
the job type specific callback will take care to signal all fences and
tear down the channel.
