[PATCH v4 7/7] drm/i915/gvt: rw more pages a time for shadow context

From: Yan Zhao
Date: Thu Mar 12 2020 - 23:22:08 EST


1. as shadow context is pinned in intel_vgpu_setup_submission() and
unpinned in intel_vgpu_clean_submission(), its base virtual address of
is safely obtained from lrc_reg_state. no need to call kmap()/kunmap()
repeatedly.

2. IOVA(GPA)s of context pages are checked in this patch and if they are
consecutive, read/write them together in one
intel_gvt_hypervisor_read_gpa() / intel_gvt_hypervisor_write_gpa().

after the two changes in this patch,
average cycles for populate_shadow_context() and update_guest_context()
are reduced by ~10000-20000 cycles, depending on the average number of
consecutive pages in each read/write.

(1) comparison of cycles of
populate_shadow_context() + update_guest_context() when executing
different benchmarks
-------------------------------------------------------------
| cycles | glmark2 | lightsmark | openarena |
|-------------------------------------------------------------|
| before this patch | 65968 | 97852 | 61373 |
| after this patch | 56017 (85%) | 73862 (75%) | 47463 (77%) |
-------------------------------------------------------------

(2) average count of pages read/written a time in
populate_shadow_context() and update_guest_context()
for each benchmark

-----------------------------------------------------------
| page cnt | glmark2 | lightsmark | openarena |
|-----------------------------------------------------------|
| before this patch | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| after this patch | 5.25 | 19.99 | 20 |
------------------------------------------------------------

(3) comparison of benchmarks scores
---------------------------------------------------------------------
| score | glmark2 | lightsmark | openarena |
|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
| before this patch | 1244 | 222.18 | 114.4 |
| after this patch | 1248 (100.3%) | 225.8 (101.6%) | 115.0 (100.9%) |
---------------------------------------------------------------------
