drm/amdgpu: add parameter to allocate high priority contexts v11
Add a new context creation parameter to express a global context priority. The priority ranking in descending order is as follows: * AMDGPU_CTX_PRIORITY_HIGH_HW * AMDGPU_CTX_PRIORITY_HIGH_SW * AMDGPU_CTX_PRIORITY_NORMAL * AMDGPU_CTX_PRIORITY_LOW_SW * AMDGPU_CTX_PRIORITY_LOW_HW The driver will attempt to schedule work to the hardware according to the priorities. No latency or throughput guarantees are provided by this patch. This interface intends to service the EGL_IMG_context_priority extension, and vulkan equivalents. Setting a priority above NORMAL requires CAP_SYS_NICE or DRM_MASTER. v2: Instead of using flags, repurpose __pad v3: Swap enum values of _NORMAL _HIGH for backwards compatibility v4: Validate usermode priority and store it v5: Move priority validation into amdgpu_ctx_ioctl(), headline reword v6: add UAPI note regarding priorities requiring CAP_SYS_ADMIN v7: remove ctx->priority v8: added AMDGPU_CTX_PRIORITY_LOW, s/CAP_SYS_ADMIN/CAP_SYS_NICE v9: change the priority parameter to __s32 v10: split priorities into _SW and _HW v11: Allow DRM_MASTER without CAP_SYS_NICE Reviewed-by: Emil Velikov <emil.l.velikov@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Andres Rodriguez <andresx7@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com>
