It's not really a graphics memory allocator, just something to track ranges
of address space. It doesn't involve actual allocation, and was consuming
some desired namespace.

On first looking at it I assumed it was an aspect of the ttm backend as a
whole rather than specific allocations from a backend.

This tries to automatically fetch a git revision string and if succeeds,
it #defines GIT_REVISION string macro. Packagers can override it by
'make GIT_REVISION=foo'.
Update Nouveau to use GIT_REVISION, if defined, instead of DRIVER_DATE
in struct drm_driver.

This fixes a problem where the wrong bo->fence_type was reported, and
also saves some memory space.
[bo core] export the drm_bo_fill_rep_arg function.

Fix that got left out after the intel-post-reloc merge.

This is the correct fix for the RS690 and hopefully the dma coherent work.
For now we limit everybody to a 32-bit DMA mask but it is possible for
RS690 to use a 40-bit DMA mask for the GART table itself,
and the PCIE cards can use 40-bits for the table entries.

doesn't fix anything but just making it consistent

The i915_vblank_swap() function schedules an automatic buffer swap
upon receipt of the vertical sync interrupt. Such an operation is
lengthy so it can't be allowed to happen in normal interrupt context,
thus the DRM implements this by scheduling the work in a kernel
softirq-scheduled tasklet. In order for the buffer swap to work
safely, the DRM's central lock must be taken, via a call to
drm_lock_take() located in drivers/char/drm/drm_irq.c within the
function drm_locked_tasklet_func(). The lock-taking logic uses a
non-interrupt-blocking spinlock to implement the manipulations needed
to take the lock. This semantic would be safe if all attempts to use
the spinlock only happen from process context. However this buffer
swap happens from softirq context which is really a form of interrupt
context. Thus we have an unsafe situation, in that
drm_locked_tasklet_func() can block on a spinlock already taken by a
thread in process context which will never get scheduled again because
of the blocked softirq tasklet. This wedges the kernel hard.
To trigger this bug, run a dual-head cloned mode configuration which
uses the i915 drm, then execute an opengl application which
synchronizes buffer swaps against the vertical sync interrupt. In my
testing, a lockup always results after running anywhere from 5 minutes
to an hour and a half. I believe dual-head is needed to really
trigger the problem because then the vertical sync interrupt handling
is no longer predictable (due to being interrupt-sourced from two
different heads running at different speeds). This raises the
probability of the tasklet trying to run while the userspace DRI is
doing things to the GPU (and manipulating the DRM lock).
The fix is to change the relevant spinlock semantics to be the
interrupt-blocking form. After this change I am no longer able to
trigger the lockup; the longest test run so far was 20 hours (test
stopped after that point).
Note: I have examined the places where this spinlock is being
employed; all are reasonably short bounded sequences and should be
suitable for interrupts being blocked without impacting overall kernel
interrupt response latency.

modprobe can be run with dropped capabilities we still want the kernel bos
to work.

This patch fixes bits of the DRM so to make the radeon DRI work on
non-cache coherent PCI DMA variants of the PowerPC processors.
It moves the few places that needs change to wrappers to that
other architectures with similar issues can easily add their
own changes to those wrappers, at least until we have more useful
generic kernel API.

this adds something to say the kernel initialised the memory region not
the userspace. and blocks userspace from deallocating kernel areas

taken from modesetting branch but could be useful outside it.
