Arunpravin Paneer Selvam 96950929eb drm/buddy: Implement tracking clear page feature
- Add tracking clear page feature.

- Driver should enable the DRM_BUDDY_CLEARED flag if it
  successfully clears the blocks in the free path. On the otherhand,
  DRM buddy marks each block as cleared.

- Track the available cleared pages size

- If driver requests cleared memory we prefer cleared memory
  but fallback to uncleared if we can't find the cleared blocks.
  when driver requests uncleared memory we try to use uncleared but
  fallback to cleared memory if necessary.

- When a block gets freed we clear it and mark the freed block as cleared,
  when there are buddies which are cleared as well we can merge them.
  Otherwise, we prefer to keep the blocks as separated.

- Add a function to support defragmentation.

v1:
  - Depends on the flag check DRM_BUDDY_CLEARED, enable the block as
    cleared. Else, reset the clear flag for each block in the list(Christian)
  - For merging the 2 cleared blocks compare as below,
    drm_buddy_is_clear(block) != drm_buddy_is_clear(buddy)(Christian)
  - Defragment the memory beginning from min_order
    till the required memory space is available.

v2: (Matthew)
  - Add a wrapper drm_buddy_free_list_internal for the freeing of blocks
    operation within drm buddy.
  - Write a macro block_incompatible() to allocate the required blocks.
  - Update the xe driver for the drm_buddy_free_list change in arguments.
  - add a warning if the two blocks are incompatible on
    defragmentation
  - call full defragmentation in the fini() function
  - place a condition to test if min_order is equal to 0
  - replace the list with safe_reverse() variant as we might
    remove the block from the list.

v3:
  - fix Gitlab user reported lockup issue.
  - Keep DRM_BUDDY_HEADER_CLEAR define sorted(Matthew)
  - modify to pass the root order instead max_order in fini()
    function(Matthew)
  - change bool 1 to true(Matthew)
  - add check if min_block_size is power of 2(Matthew)
  - modify the min_block_size datatype to u64(Matthew)

v4:
  - rename the function drm_buddy_defrag with __force_merge.
  - Include __force_merge directly in drm buddy file and remove
    the defrag use in amdgpu driver.
  - Remove list_empty() check(Matthew)
  - Remove unnecessary space, headers and placement of new variables(Matthew)
  - Add a unit test case(Matthew)

v5:
  - remove force merge support to actual range allocation and not to bail
    out when contains && split(Matthew)
  - add range support to force merge function.

v6:
  - modify the alloc_range() function clear page non merged blocks
    allocation(Matthew)
  - correct the list_insert function name(Matthew).

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.
