Subject: [PATCH 0/2] drm/i915/gvt: Avoid full proxy f_ops debug attributes

This patch series proposes to replace a combination of DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE() +
debugfs_create_file() by a combination of DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() +
debugfs_create_file_unsafe(). The change reduced overhead in terms of managing
the full proxy f_ops at runtime. The patches 1 & 2 covers for the scan_nonprivbb
and vgpu_status f_ops debugfs attributes respectively.

Following coccicheck make command helped identify this change:

make coccicheck M=drivers/gpu/drm/i915/ MODE=patch COCCI=./scripts/coccinelle/api/debugfs/debugfs_simple_attr.cocci

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] drm/i915/gvt: Avoid full proxy f_ops for vgpu_status debug attributes

Using DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE macro with the debugfs_create_file()
function adds the overhead of introducing a proxy file operation
functions to wrap the original read/write inside file removal protection
functions. This adds significant overhead in terms of introducing and
managing the proxy factory file operations structure and function
wrapping at runtime.
As a replacement, a combination of DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE macro paired
with debugfs_create_file_unsafe() is suggested to be used instead. The
DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE utilises debugfs_file_get() and
debugfs_file_put() wrappers to protect the original read and write
function calls for the debug attributes. There is no need for any
runtime proxy file operations to be managed by the debugfs core.

I believe these 2 gvt cases could be done in one patch.
But anyways,

Reviewed-by: Rodrigo Vivi <[email protected]>

for both patches... and will leave these 2 patches for gvt folks
to apply. Unless they ack and I apply in the drm-intel along with the other ones.

Actually, could you please address the checkpatch issues before we can push?
Sorry about that, but just noticed now when I was going to push the other ones.

Hello Rodrigo,
The checkpatch warning is associated with the long "make coccicheck ..." command
in the commit message. It is not part of the code, so is should not be carried
forward into the code base.
If you still want me to correct it, I will need to split it into two lines which
I think still violates the commit description guidelines.

Let me know what you think.

Thank you,

This part I would just ignore or fix myself while merging. But the next one about
the parenthesis alignment need to be fixed in the code so we need another version.
Since we try to avoid touching the code between CI and merge.

Then, since you need to change that, while changing that, also please break
the coccinelle line in the commit msg.

I'd appreciate to have the patch for the pxp as well :)

Thanks a lot,
Rodrigo.

I am sorry, but I am unable to locate the "second checkpatch complaint" you are

Sure. As mentioned in the other thread, I am looking into it and would submit a

doh, my bad! this gvt patch is indeed right. up to gvt folks to modify this line
when merging or to ignore...

The problem I mentioned was in the other series. Sorry for the noise.

but for the record:

-:47: CHECK:PARENTHESIS_ALIGNMENT: Alignment should match open parenthesis
#47: FILE: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_drrs.c:386:
+ debugfs_create_file_unsafe("i915_drrs_ctl", 0644, crtc->base.debugfs_entry,
+ crtc, &intel_drrs_debugfs_ctl_fops);

Unfortunately I got some conflicts when trying to apply on drm-intel-next.

We probably need a new version, and probably through gvt branches it
will be easier to handle conflicts if they appear.

Hello Rodrigo,
Sure. I will send in a new version. I am current using linux-next git repo as my
remote origin [tag 20230113]. Are there any specific instruction/location from
where I should access the gvt branch?

https://github.com/intel/gvt-linux.git

but with the linux-next your patch is probably right for them.
