    drm/i915/gt: Only transfer the virtual context to the new engine if active · 56f581ba
    Chris Wilson authored
    One more complication of preempt-to-busy with respect to the virtual
    engine is that we may have retired the last request along the virtual
    engine at the same time as preparing to submit the completed request to
    a new engine. That submit will be shortcircuited, but not before we have
    updated the context with the new register offsets and marked the virtual
    engine as bound to the new engine (by calling swap on ve->siblings[]).
    As we may have just retired the completed request, we may also be in the
    middle of calling virtual_context_exit() to turn off the power management
    associated with the virtual engine, and that in turn walks the
    ve->siblings[]. If we happen to call swap() on the array as we walk, we
    will call intel_engine_pm_put() twice on the same engine.
    
    In this patch, we prevent this by only updating the bound engine after a
    successful submission which weeds out the already completed requests.
    
    Alternatively, we could walk a non-volatile array for the pm, such as
    using the engine->mask. The small advantage to performing the update
    after the submit is that we then only have to do a swap for active
    requests.
