This patch implements preemption feature for A6xx targets, this allows
the GPU to switch to a higher priority ringbuffer if one is ready. A6XX
hardware as such supports multiple levels of preemption granularities,
ranging from coarse grained(ringbuffer level) to a more fine grained
such as draw-call level or a bin boundary level preemption. This patch
enables the basic preemption level, with more fine grained preemption
support to follow.

please check that?

I totally missed that. Thanks for catching it!


I wonder why that didn't cause any gpu errors in testing. Not sure if I
am missing something.


I think this is because, so long as a single context doesn't submit to two different rings with differenr priorities, we will only be incorrect in the sense that we emit more page table switches than necessary and never less. However untrusted userspace could create a context that submits to two different rings and that would lead to execution in the wrong context so we must fix this.

Secure buffers are not supported currently, so we can skip this and the
context record allocation. Anyway this has to be a separate buffer
mapped in secure pagetable which don't currently have. We can skip the
same in pseudo register packet too.


Mmm it would appear that not setting it causes an hang very early. I'll see if I can find out more about what is going on.

Actually it was a mistake I had made when testing. The secure record will be gone from the next revision.
