Bug 78023

You should be able to bisect this based on the first line (rather than wait 15 minutes).

    drm/i915: Do not call retire_requests from wait_for_rendering

    A common issue we have is that retiring requests causes recursion
    through GTT manipulation or page table manipulation which we can only
    handle at very specific points. However, to maintain internal
    consistency (enforced through our sanity checks on write_domain at
    various points in the GEM object lifecycle) we do need to retire the
    object prior to marking it with a new write_domain, and also clear the
    write_domain for the implicit flush following a batch.

    Note that this then allows the unbound objects to still be on the active
    lists, and so care must be taken when removing objects from unbound lists
    (similar to the caveats we face processing the bound lists).

    v2: Fix i915_gem_shrink_all() to handle updated object lifetime rules,
    by refactoring it to call into __i915_gem_shrink().

    v3: Missed an object-retire prior to changing cache domains in
    i915_gem_object_set_cache_leve()

    v4: Rebase

You only see this on BDW right? As it doesn't seem to affect the platforms here.

This bug still can be reproduce on PNV and HSW, Thanks.

The root cause is ppgtt:

    drm/i915: Prevent recursion by retiring requests when the ring is full
    
    As the VM do not track activity of objects and instead use a large
    hammer to forcibly idle and evict all of their associated objects when
    one is released, it is possible for that to cause a recursion when we
    need to wait for free space on a ring and call retire requests.
    (intel_ring_begin -> intel_ring_wait_request ->
    i915_gem_retire_requests_ring -> i915_gem_context_free ->
    i915_gem_evict_vm -> i915_gpu_idle -> intel_ring_begin etc)
    
    In order to remove the requirement for calling retire-requests from
    intel_ring_wait_request, we have to inline a couple of steps from
    retiring requests, notably we have to record the position of the request
    we wait for and use that to update the available ring space.

removes the i915_gem_retire_requests_ring() when we run out of ring space, and this test has no explicit request retiring and so depends upon this implicit retire.

        drm/i915: Prevent recursion by retiring requests when the ring is full
    
    Ville raised the point that our interaction with request->tail was
    likely to foul up other uses elsewhere (such as hang check comparing
    ACTHD against requests).
    
    However, we also need to restore the implicit retire requests that certain
    test cases depend upon (e.g. igt/gem_exec_lut_handle), this raises the
    spectre that the ppgtt will randomly call i915_gpu_idle() and recurse
    back into intel_ring_begin().
