<content type='text'>
It was noticed when setting the Panfrost's DVFS device to the performant
governor, GPU frequency as reported by fdinfo had dropped to 0 permamently.

There are two separate issues causing this behaviour:
 - Not initialising the device's current_frequency variable to its original
 value during device probe().
 - Updating said variable in Panfrost devfreq's get_dev_status() rather
 than after the new OPP's frequency had been retrieved in target(), which
 meant the old frequency would be assigned instead.

A GEM object constructed from a dma-buf imported sgtable should be regarded
as being memory resident, because the dma-buf API mandates backing storage

   - Kemeng Shi has contributed some compation maintenance work in the
     series 'Fixes and cleanups to compaction'

   - Joel Fernandes has a patchset ('Optimize mremap during mutual
     alignment within PMD') which fixes an obscure issue with mremap()'s
     pagetable handling during a subsequent exec(), based upon an
     implementation which Linus suggested

     memory' feature. To increase the feature's checking coverage. 'Plug
     a few gaps where RAM is exposed without checking if it is
     unaccepted memory'

   - In the series 'cleanups for lockless slab shrink' Qi Zheng has done
     some maintenance work which is preparation for the lockless slab

     manipulation' Zi Yan has fixed a potential issue with the direct
     manipulation of hugetlb page frames

   - In the series 'mm: hugetlb: Skip initialization of gigantic tail
     struct pages if freed by HVO' has improved our handling of gigantic
     pages in the hugetlb vmmemmep optimizaton code. This provides

     added statistics for memcg v1 users which are available (and
     useful) under memcg v2

   - Florent Revest has enhanced the MDWE (Memory-Deny-Write-Executable)

     distances. This is used to permit the dax/kmem driver to use 'high
     bandwidth memory' in addition to Optane Data Center Persistent
     Memory Modules (DCPMM). The series is named 'memory tiering:
     calculate abstract distance based on ACPI HMAT'

     values'

   - In the series 'Implement IOCTL to get and optionally clear info
     about PTEs' Peter Xu has added an ioctl to /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/pagemap
     which permits us to atomically read-then-clear page softdirty

     files in the series 'permit write-sealed memfd read-only shared
     mappings'

     automatic tuning to the allocator's per-cpu-pages feature, in the
     series 'mm: PCP high auto-tuning'

     performance of accounted kernel memory allocations' which improves
     their performance by ~30% as measured by a micro-benchmark

<title>drm/sched: Convert the GPU scheduler to variable number of run-queues</title>

<id>56e449603f0ac580700621a356d35d5716a62ce5</id>
<content type='text'>
The GPU scheduler has now a variable number of run-queues, which are set up at
drm_sched_init() time. This way, each driver announces how many run-queues it
requires (supports) per each GPU scheduler it creates. Note, that run-queues
correspond to scheduler "priorities", thus if the number of run-queues is set
to 1 at drm_sched_init(), then that scheduler supports a single run-queue,
i.e. single "priority". If a driver further sets a single entity per
run-queue, then this creates a 1-to-1 correspondence between a scheduler and
a scheduled entity.

The GPU scheduler has now a variable number of run-queues, which are set up at
drm_sched_init() time. This way, each driver announces how many run-queues it
requires (supports) per each GPU scheduler it creates. Note, that run-queues
correspond to scheduler "priorities", thus if the number of run-queues is set
to 1 at drm_sched_init(), then that scheduler supports a single run-queue,
i.e. single "priority". If a driver further sets a single entity per
run-queue, then this creates a 1-to-1 correspondence between a scheduler and
a scheduled entity.

In preparation for implementing lockless slab shrink, use new APIs to
dynamically allocate the drm-panfrost shrinker, so that it can be freed
asynchronously via RCU. Then it doesn't need to wait for RCU read-side
critical section when releasing the struct panfrost_device.

BO's RSS is updated every time new pages are allocated on demand and mapped
for the object at GPU page fault's IRQ handler, but only for heap buffers.
The reason this is unnecessary for non-heap buffers is that they are mapped
onto the GPU's VA space and backed by physical memory in their entirety at
BO creation time.

This calculation is unnecessary for imported PRIME objects, since heap
buffers cannot be exported by our driver, and the actual BO RSS size is the
one reported in its attached dmabuf structure.

A new DRM GEM object function is added so that drm_show_memory_stats can
provide more accurate memory usage numbers.

Ideally, in panfrost_gem_status, the BO's purgeable flag would be checked
after locking the driver's shrinker mutex, but drm_show_memory_stats takes
over the drm file's object handle database spinlock, so there's potential
for a race condition here.

<title>drm/panfrost: Add fdinfo support GPU load metrics</title>

<id>f11b0417eec21ade937da866363433cc0b8b396c</id>
<content type='text'>
The drm-stats fdinfo tags made available to user space are drm-engine,
drm-cycles, drm-max-freq and drm-curfreq, one per job slot.

This deviates from standard practice in other DRM drivers, where a single
set of key:value pairs is provided for the whole render engine. However,
Panfrost has separate queues for fragment and vertex/tiler jobs, so a
decision was made to calculate bus cycles and workload times separately.

Maximum operating frequency is calculated at devfreq initialisation time.
Current frequency is made available to user space because nvtop uses it
when performing engine usage calculations.

It is important to bear in mind that both GPU cycle and kernel time numbers
provided are at best rough estimations, and always reported in excess from
the actual figure because of two reasons:
 - Excess time because of the delay between the end of a job processing,
   the subsequent job IRQ and the actual time of the sample.
 - Time spent in the engine queue waiting for the GPU to pick up the next
   job.

To avoid race conditions during enablement/disabling, a reference counting
mechanism was introduced, and a job flag that tells us whether a given job
increased the refcount. This is necessary, because user space can toggle
cycle counting through a debugfs file, and a given job might have been in
flight by the time cycle counting was disabled.

The main goal of the debugfs cycle counter knob is letting tools like nvtop
or IGT's gputop switch it at any time, to avoid power waste in case no
engine usage measuring is necessary.

Also add a documentation file explaining the possible values for fdinfo's
engine keystrings and Panfrost-specific drm-curfreq-&lt;keystr&gt; pairs.
