[PATCH v6 1/8] drm/xe: Track exec queue priority band counts for user VMs

Newsgroups org.freedesktop.lists.intel-xe
Message-ID <[email protected]>
Add a per-priority-band count (LOW/NORMAL/HIGH) of exec queues
attached to a user VM in xe_vm_add_exec_queue()/xe_vm_remove_exec_queue(),
protected by vm->exec_queues.lock in write mode. KERNEL priority is
not counted since it is not possible for user exec queues.

This count is needed so a VM's private buffer objects can later be
prioritized for eviction based on the priority userspace has assigned
to the exec queues using that VM (i.e. work submitted at a higher
priority band implies its buffers are more important to keep
resident), rather than treating every VM the same.

Also move the has_ctx_tlb_inval check inside the lock in
xe_vm_add_exec_queue() so the list add/count update is properly
gated under the same critical section, and make
xe_vm_remove_exec_queue() bail out early if q->xef is not set,
rather than relying on callers to check this.
