Mali GPUs have three registers that indicate which parts of the hardware
are powered at any moment. These take the form of bitmaps. In the case
of SHADER_READY for example, a high bit indicates that the shader core
corresponding to that bit index is powered on. These bitmaps aren't
solely contiguous bits, as it's common to have holes in the sequence of
shader core indices, and the actual set of which cores are present is
defined by the "shader present" register.
When the GPU finishes a power state transition, it fires a
GPU_IRQ_POWER_CHANGED_ALL interrupt. After such an interrupt is
received, the _READY registers will contain new interesting data. During
power transitions, the GPU_IRQ_POWER_CHANGED interrupt will fire, and
the registers will likewise contain potentially changed data.
This is not to be confused with the PWR_IRQ_POWER_CHANGED_ALL interrupt,
which is something related to Mali v14+'s power control logic. The
_READY registers and corresponding interrupts are already available in
v9 and onwards.
Expose the data as a tracepoint to userspace. This allows users to debug
various scenarios and gather interesting information, such as: knowing
how much hardware is lit up at any given time, correlating graphics
corruption with a specific powered shader core, measuring when hardware
is allowed to go to a powered off state again, and so on.
The registration/unregistration functions for the tracepoint go through
a wrapper in panthor_hw.c, so that v14+ can implement the same
tracepoint by adding its hardware specific IRQ on/off callbacks to the
panthor_hw.ops member.

Introduce architecture-specific function pointers to support
architecture-dependent behaviours. This patch adds the following
function pointers and updates their usage accordingly:
- soft_reset
- l2_power_on
- l2_power_off

With the introduction of 64-bit register accessors, the separate *_HI
definitions are no longer necessary. This change removes them and
renames the corresponding *_LO entries for cleaner and more consistent
register definitions.

This patch adds 64-bit register accessors to simplify register access in
Panthor. It also adds 32-bit and 64-bit variants for read_poll_timeout.
This patch also updates Panthor to use the new 64-bit accessors and poll
functions.

Expose timestamp information supported by the GPU with a new device
query.
Mali uses an external timer as GPU system time. On ARM, this is wired to
the generic arch timer so we wire cntfrq_el0 as device frequency.
This new uAPI will be used in Mesa to implement timestamp queries and
VK_KHR_calibrated_timestamps.
Since this extends the uAPI and because userland needs a way to advertise
those features conditionally, this also bumps the driver minor version.
v2:
- Rewrote to use GPU timestamp register
- Added timestamp_offset to drm_panthor_timestamp_info
- Add missing include for arch_timer_get_cntfrq
- Rework commit message
v3:
- Add panthor_gpu_read_64bit_counter
- Change panthor_gpu_read_timestamp to use
panthor_gpu_read_64bit_counter
v4:
- Fix multiple typos in uAPI documentation
- Mention behavior when the timestamp frequency is unknown
- Use u64 instead of unsigned long long
for panthor_gpu_read_timestamp
- Apply r-b from Mihail

Handles everything that's not related to the FW, the MMU or the
scheduler. This is the block dealing with the GPU property retrieval,
the GPU block power on/off logic, and some global operations, like
global cache flushing.
v6:
- Add Maxime's and Heiko's acks
v5:
- Fix GPU_MODEL() kernel doc
- Fix test in panthor_gpu_block_power_off()
- Add Steve's R-b
v4:
- Expose CORE_FEATURES through DEV_QUERY
v3:
- Add acks for the MIT/GPL2 relicensing
- Use macros to extract GPU ID info
- Make sure we reset clear pending_reqs bits when wait_event_timeout()
times out but the corresponding bit is cleared in GPU_INT_RAWSTAT
(can happen if the IRQ is masked or HW takes to long to call the IRQ
handler)
- GPU_MODEL now takes separate arch and product majors to be more
readable.
- Drop GPU_IRQ_MCU_STATUS_CHANGED from interrupt mask.
- Handle GPU_IRQ_PROTM_FAULT correctly (don't output registers that are
not updated for protected interrupts).
- Minor code tidy ups
