[v7,0/4] Panthor BO tagging and GEMS debug display

Message

Adrián Larumbe April 11, 2025, 3:03 p.m. UTC

This patch series is aimed at providing UM with detailed memory profiling
information in debug builds. It is achieved through a device-wide list of
DRM GEM objects, and also implementing the ability to label BO's from UM
through a new IOCTL.

The new debugfs file shows a list of driver DRM GEM objects in tabular mode.
To visualise it, cat sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/*.gpu/gems.
To test this functionality from UM, please refer to this Mesa patch series:

Changelog:
v7:
 - Improved formating of DebugFS GEM's status and usage flags
 - Deleted some spurious white spaces
 - Renamed usage flags setting function

v6:
 - Replaced some mutex calls with scoped guards
 - Documented data size limits in the label ioctl
 - Simplified GEMS status flags treatment (Panthor doesn't use madvise)
 - Fixed some array size and string bugs
 - Improved the naming of GEM status and usage flags to reflect their meaning
 - Improved the formatting of the output table

v5:
 - Kept case and naming of kernel BO's consistent
 - Increased the driver minor after new ioctl
 - Now adds BO to debugfs GEMs list at GEM object creation time
 - No longer try to hide BO creator's name when it's a workqueue or modprobe
 - Reworked the procedure for printing GEM state and kernel BO flags
 - Turned kernel BO flags and GEM state flags into bit enums
 - Wait until BO state is marked as initialied for debugfs display

v4:
 - Labelled all kernel BO's, not just heap chunks.
 - Refactored DebugGFs GEMs list handling functions
 - Added debugfs GEMS node mask to tell different kinds of BO's

  drm/panthor: Introduce BO labeling
  drm/panthor: Add driver IOCTL for setting BO labels
  drm/panthor: Label all kernel BO's
