Chris Wilson 4a9bb58aba drm/i915/gt: Wait for CSB entries on Tigerlake
On Tigerlake, we are seeing a repeat of commit d8f5053117 ("drm/i915/icl:
Forcibly evict stale csb entries") where, presumably, due to a missing
Global Observation Point synchronisation, the write pointer of the CSB
ringbuffer is updated _prior_ to the contents of the ringbuffer. That is
we see the GPU report more context-switch entries for us to parse, but
those entries have not been written, leading us to process stale events,
and eventually report a hung GPU.

However, this effect appears to be much more severe than we previously
saw on Icelake (though it might be best if we try the same approach
there as well and measure), and Bruce suggested the good idea of resetting
the CSB entry after use so that we can detect when it has been updated by
the GPU. By instrumenting how long that may be, we can set a reliable
upper bound for how long we should wait for:

    513 late, avg of 61 retries (590 ns), max of 1061 retries (10099 ns)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
