- * struct drm_i915_context_engines_parallel_submit - Configure engine for
- * parallel submission.
- *
- * Setup a slot in the context engine map to allow multiple BBs to be submitted
- * in a single execbuf IOCTL. Those BBs will then be scheduled to run on the GPU
- * in parallel. Multiple hardware contexts are created internally in the i915
- * run these BBs. Once a slot is configured for N BBs only N BBs can be
- * submitted in each execbuf IOCTL and this is implicit behavior e.g. The user
- * doesn't tell the execbuf IOCTL there are N BBs, the execbuf IOCTL knows how
- * many BBs there are based on the slot's configuration. The N BBs are the last
- * N buffer objects or first N if I915_EXEC_BATCH_FIRST is set.
- *
- * The default placement behavior is to create implicit bonds between each
- * context if each context maps to more than 1 physical engine (e.g. context is
- * a virtual engine). Also we only allow contexts of same engine class and these
- * contexts must be in logically contiguous order. Examples of the placement
- * behavior described below. Lastly, the default is to not allow BBs to
- * preempted mid BB rather insert coordinated preemption on all hardware
- * contexts between each set of BBs. Flags may be added in the future to change
- * both of these default behaviors.
- *
- * Returns -EINVAL if hardware context placement configuration is invalid or if
- * the placement configuration isn't supported on the platform / submission
- * interface.
- * Returns -ENODEV if extension isn't supported on the platform / submission
- * interface.
- *
- * .. code-block:: none
- *
- * Example 1 pseudo code:
- * CS[X] = generic engine of same class, logical instance X
- * INVALID = I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID, I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID_NONE
- * set_engines(INVALID)
- * set_parallel(engine_index=0, width=2, num_siblings=1,
- * engines=CS[0],CS[1])
- *
- * Results in the following valid placement:
- * CS[0], CS[1]
- *
- * Example 2 pseudo code:
- * CS[X] = generic engine of same class, logical instance X
- * INVALID = I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID, I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID_NONE
- * set_engines(INVALID)
- * set_parallel(engine_index=0, width=2, num_siblings=2,
- * engines=CS[0],CS[2],CS[1],CS[3])
- *
- * Results in the following valid placements:
- * CS[0], CS[1]
- * CS[2], CS[3]
- *
- * This can also be thought of as 2 virtual engines described by 2-D array
- * in the engines the field with bonds placed between each index of the
- * virtual engines. e.g. CS[0] is bonded to CS[1], CS[2] is bonded to
- * CS[3].
- * VE[0] = CS[0], CS[2]
- * VE[1] = CS[1], CS[3]
- *
- * Example 3 pseudo code:
- * CS[X] = generic engine of same class, logical instance X
- * INVALID = I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID, I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID_NONE
- * set_engines(INVALID)
- * set_parallel(engine_index=0, width=2, num_siblings=2,
- * engines=CS[0],CS[1],CS[1],CS[3])
- *
- * Results in the following valid and invalid placements:
- * CS[0], CS[1]
- * CS[1], CS[3] - Not logical contiguous, return -EINVAL
