Tvrtko Ursulin 1b5553c79d drm/i915: Flush TLBs before releasing backing store
commit 7938d61591d33394a21bdd7797a245b65428f44c upstream.

We need to flush TLBs before releasing backing store otherwise userspace
is able to encounter stale entries if a) it is not declaring access to
certain buffers and b) it races with the backing store release from a
such undeclared execution already executing on the GPU in parallel.

The approach taken is to mark any buffer objects which were ever bound
to the GPU and to trigger a serialized TLB flush when their backing
store is released.

Alternatively the flushing could be done on VMA unbind, at which point
we would be able to ascertain whether there is potential a parallel GPU
execution (which could race), but essentially it boils down to paying
the cost of TLB flushes potentially needlessly at VMA unbind time (when
the backing store is not known to be going away so not needed for
safety), versus potentially needlessly at backing store relase time
(since we at that point cannot tell whether there is anything executing
on the GPU which uses that object).

Thereforce simplicity of implementation has been chosen for now with
scope to benchmark and refine later as required.

README

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.
