UAPI Changes:
- drm/i915/guc: Use context hints for GT frequency
Allow user to provide a low latency context hint. When set, KMD
sends a hint to GuC which results in special handling for this
context. SLPC will ramp the GT frequency aggressively every time
it switches to this context. The down freq threshold will also be
lower so GuC will ramp down the GT freq for this context more slowly.
We also disable waitboost for this context as that will interfere with
the strategy.
We need to enable the use of SLPC Compute strategy during init, but
it will apply only to contexts that set this bit during context
creation.
Userland can check whether this feature is supported using a new param-
I915_PARAM_HAS_CONTEXT_FREQ_HINT. This flag is true for all guc submission
enabled platforms as they use SLPC for frequency management.
The Mesa usage model for this flag is here -
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/sushmave/mesa/-/commits/compute_hint
- drm/i915/gt: Enable only one CCS for compute workload
Enable only one CCS engine by default with all the compute sices
allocated to it.
While generating the list of UABI engines to be exposed to the
user, exclude any additional CCS engines beyond the first
instance
***
NOTE: This W/A will make all DG2 SKUs appear like single CCS SKUs by
default to mitigate a hardware bug. All the EUs will still remain
usable, and all the userspace drivers have been confirmed to be able
to dynamically detect the change in number of CCS engines and adjust.
For the smaller percent of applications that get perf benefit from
letting the userspace driver dispatch across all 4 CCS engines we will
be introducing a sysfs control as a later patch to choose 4 CCS each
with 25% EUs (or 50% if 2 CCS).
NOTE: A regression has been reported at
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/i915/kernel/-/issues/10895
However Andi has been triaging the issue and we're closing in a fix
to the gap in the W/A implementation:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
