For some users of multi-lrc, e.g. split frame, it isn't safe to preempt
mid BB. To safely enable preemption at the BB boundary, a handshake
between to parent and child is needed. This is implemented via custom
emit_bb_start & emit_fini_breadcrumb functions and enabled via by
default if a context is configured by set parallel extension.

v2:

  - Fix a few comments wording
  - Add struture for parent page layout

I'm also not seeing any mention of the forced re-group behavioural 
change in either the comments or commit description.

Could have a common structure for these. Call the u32 'semaphore_memory' 
or something then just have:
   struct sync_semaphore go;
   struct sync_semaphore go[MAX + 1];

> +

And this bit could be 'sizeof(struct sync_semaphore) * MAX + 2' to be 
clearer what it refers to.

And to be totally paranoid about it, could also add 
'BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(struct sync_semaphore) != CACHELINE_BYTES'.

And BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(parent_page) == PARENT_PAGE_SIZE)'.

Can't this be written as:
   pp->child_go_memory = 0;
   for(i = 0 to number_children)
     pp->child_join_memory = 0;

Seems like that would be much clearer than this magic casting and 
offsetting. I mean, that was the whole point of creating the parent_page 
structure.

Rather than relying on the BUILD_BUG to make sure that the magic 
calculation matches the structure definition, can't this just say 
"ggtt_offset + pp_offset + offsetof(pp, child_go)"?

"ggtt_offset + pp_offset + offsetof(pp, child_join[i])"?

You mentioned possibly needing to add an MI_ARB_CHECK in here but I'm 
not seeing it. Did the testing happen? I don't see that it should be 
necessary. Once you execute the MI_ARB_ENABLE, the CS can preempt 
anywhere, I thought? Even if it can't there should be an MI_ARB_CHECK 
added at the next level up after the breadcrumb code. Or do we not have 
those in between batches any more?

No, it can only preempt on certain instructions - e.g. MI_ARB_CHECK or a
semaphore.

Right. A MI_ARB_CHECK before writing the fini breadcrumbs would be wrong
as we could preeempt after the batch is complete but before the fini
breadcrumbs are written so the i915 still thinks the batch (request)
isn't done. The code is fine as is. The emit BB code for the parent has
semaphore instructions where is can be preempted.
