drm/i915/bxt: Broxton decoupled MMIO
Decoupled MMIO is an alternative way to access forcewake domain registers, which requires less cycles for a single read/write and avoids frequent software forcewake. This certainly gives advantage over the forcewake as this new mechanism “decouples” CPU cycles and allow them to complete even when GT is in a CPD (frequency change) or C6 state. This can co-exist with forcewake and we will continue to use forcewake as appropriate. E.g. 64-bit register writes to avoid writing 2 dwords separately and land into funny situations. v2: - Moved platform check out of the function and got rid of duplicate functions to find out decoupled power domain (Chris) - Added a check for forcewake already held and skipped decoupled access (Chris) - Skipped writing 64 bit registers through decoupled MMIO (Chris) v3: - Improved commit message with more info on decoupled mmio (Tvrtko) - Changed decoupled operation to enum and used u32 instead of uint_32 data type for register offset (Tvrtko) - Moved HAS_DECOUPLED_MMIO to device info (Tvrtko) - Added lookup table for converting fw_engine to pd_engine (Tvrtko) - Improved __gen9_decoupled_read and __gen9_decoupled_write routines (Tvrtko) v4: - Fixed alignment and variable names (Chris) - Write GEN9_DECOUPLED_REG0_DW1 register in just one go (Zhe Wang) v5: - Changed HAS_DECOUPLED_MMIO() argument name to dev_priv (Tvrtko) - Sanitize info->had_decoupled_mmio at init (Chris) Signed-off-by: Zhe Wang <zhe1.wang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Praveen Paneri <praveen.paneri@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@intel.com> Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/1479230360-22395-1-git-send-email-praveen.paneri@intel.com
