* accel/qaic: Expand DRM device lifecycleCarl Vanderlip2023-12-011-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the QAIC DRM device registers itself when the MHI QAIC_CONTROL channel becomes available. This is when the device is able to process workloads. However, the DRM driver also provides the debugfs interface bootlog for the device. If the device fails to boot to the QSM (which brings up the MHI QAIC_CONTROL channel), the bootlog won't be available for debugging why it failed to boot. Change when the DRM device registers itself from when QAIC_CONTROL is available to when the card is first probed on the PCI bus. Additionally, make the DRM driver persist through reset/error cases so the driver doesn't have to be reloaded to access the card again. Send KOBJ_ONLINE/OFFLINE uevents so userspace can know when DRM device is ready to handle requests.

* accel/qaic: Support MHI QAIC_TIMESYNC channelPranjal Ramajor Asha Kanojiya2023-10-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Use QAIC_TIMESYNC MHI channel to send UTC time to device in SBL environment. Remove support for QAIC_TIMESYNC MHI channel in AMSS environment as it is not used in that environment.

* accel/qaic: Add support for periodic timesyncAjit Pal Singh2023-10-272-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Device and Host have a time synchronization mechanism that happens once during boot when device is in SBL mode. After that, in mission-mode there is no timesync. In an experiment after continuous operation, device time drifted w.r.t. host by approximately 3 seconds per day. This drift leads to mismatch in timestamp of device and Host logs. To correct this implement periodic timesync in driver. This timesync is carried out via QAIC_TIMESYNC_PERIODIC MHI channel.

* accel/qaic: Enable 1 MSI fallback modeCarl Vanderlip2023-10-272-2/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several virtualization use-cases either don't support 32 MultiMSIs (Xen/VMware) or have significant drawbacks to their use (KVM's vIOMMU, which is required to support 32 MSI, needs to allocate an alternate system memory space for each device using vIOMMU (e.g. 8GB VM mem and 2 cards => 8 + 2 * 8 = 24GB host memory required)). Support these cases by enabling a 1 MSI fallback mode. Whenever all 32 MSIs requested are not available, a second request for a single MSI is made. Its success is the initiator of single MSI mode. This mode causes all interrupts generated by the device to be directed to the 0th MSI (firmware >=v1.10 will do this as a response to the PCIe MSI capability configuration). Likewise, all interrupt handlers for the device are registered to the 0th MSI. Since the DBC interrupt handler checks if the DBC is in use or if there is any pending changes, the 'spurious' interrupts are disregarded. If there is work to be done, the standard threaded IRQ handler is dispatched. On every interrupt, the MHI handler wakes up its threaded interrupt handler, and attempts to wake any waiters for MHI state events. Performance is within +-0.6% for test cases that typify real world use. Larger differences ([-4,+132]%, avg +47%) exist for very simple tasks (e.g. addition) compiled for single NSPs. It is assumed that the small work and many interrupts typically cause contention (e.g. 16 NSPs vs 4 CPUs), as evidenced by the standard deviation between runs also decreasing (r=-0.48 between delta(Performace_test) and delta(StdDev_test/Avg_test)) Signed-off-by: Carl Vanderlip <quic_carlv@quicinc.com> Reviewed-by: Pranjal Ramajor Asha Kanojiya <quic_pkanojiy@quicinc.com> Reviewed-by: Jeffrey Hugo <quic_jhugo@quicinc.com> Signed-off-by: Jeffrey Hugo <quic_jhugo@quicinc.com> Reviewed-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <stanislaw.gruszka@linux.intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20231016170036.5409-1-quic_jhugo@quicinc.com
* accel/qaic: Add QAIC_DETACH_SLICE_BO IOCTLPranjal Ramajor Asha Kanojiya2023-09-221-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Once a BO is attached with slicing configuration that BO can only be used for that particular setting. With this new feature user can detach slicing configuration off an already sliced BO and attach new slicing configuration using QAIC_ATTACH_SLICE_BO. This will support BO recycling. detach_slice_bo() detaches slicing configuration from a BO. This new helper function can also be used in release_dbc() as we are doing the exact same thing.

The Qualcomm Cloud AI 100 (AIC100) device is an Artificial Intelligence accelerator PCIe card. It contains a number of components both in the SoC and on the card which facilitate running workloads: QSM: management processor NSPs: workload compute units DMA Bridge: dedicated data mover for the workloads MHI: multiplexed communication channels DDR: workload storage and memory The Linux kernel driver for AIC100 is called "QAIC" and is located in the accel subsystem.
