Subject: tools headers UAPI: Sync drm/i915_drm.h with the kernel sources
Git-commit: 4dc24d7cf4983ae779f4a4428e527441225315e9
Patch-mainline: v5.15-rc1

  c649432e86ca677d ("drm/i915: Fix busy ioctl commentary")

That doesn't result in any changes to tooling as no new ioctl were
added (at least not perceived by tools/perf/trace/beauty/drm_ioctl.sh).

Addressing this perf build warning:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/include/uapi/drm/i915_drm.h' differs from latest version at 'include/uapi/drm/i915_drm.h'

+ * DOC: Virtual Engine uAPI
+ *
+ * Virtual engine is a concept where userspace is able to configure a set of
+ * physical engines, submit a batch buffer, and let the driver execute it on any
+ * engine from the set as it sees fit.
+ *
+ * This is primarily useful on parts which have multiple instances of a same
+ * class engine, like for example GT3+ Skylake parts with their two VCS engines.
+ *
+ * For instance userspace can enumerate all engines of a certain class using the

+ * create a GEM context with a placeholder slot for the virtual engine (using
+ * `I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID` and `I915_ENGINE_CLASS_INVALID_NONE` for class
+ * and instance respectively) and finally using the

+/**
+ * DOC: Engine Discovery uAPI
+ *
+ * Engine discovery uAPI is a way of enumerating physical engines present in a
+ * GPU associated with an open i915 DRM file descriptor. This supersedes the old
+ * way of using `DRM_IOCTL_I915_GETPARAM` and engine identifiers like
+ * `I915_PARAM_HAS_BLT`.
+ *
+ * The need for this interface came starting with Icelake and newer GPUs, which
+ * started to establish a pattern of having multiple engines of a same class,
+ * where not all instances were always completely functionally equivalent.
+ *
+ * Entry point for this uapi is `DRM_IOCTL_I915_QUERY` with the
+ * `DRM_I915_QUERY_ENGINE_INFO` as the queried item id.
+ *
+ * Example for getting the list of engines:
+ *
+ * .. code-block:: C
+ *
+ * 	struct drm_i915_query_engine_info *info;
+ * 	struct drm_i915_query_item item = {
+ * 		.query_id = DRM_I915_QUERY_ENGINE_INFO;
+ * 	};
+ * 	struct drm_i915_query query = {
+ * 		.num_items = 1,
+ * 		.items_ptr = (uintptr_t)&item,
+ * 	};
+ * 	int err, i;
+ *
+ * 	// First query the size of the blob we need, this needs to be large
+ * 	// enough to hold our array of engines. The kernel will fill out the
+ * 	// item.length for us, which is the number of bytes we need.
+ * 	//
+ * 	// Alternatively a large buffer can be allocated straight away enabling
+ * 	// querying in one pass, in which case item.length should contain the
+ * 	// length of the provided buffer.
+ * 	err = ioctl(fd, DRM_IOCTL_I915_QUERY, &query);
+ * 	if (err) ...
+ *
+ * 	info = calloc(1, item.length);
+ * 	// Now that we allocated the required number of bytes, we call the ioctl
+ * 	// again, this time with the data_ptr pointing to our newly allocated
+ * 	// blob, which the kernel can then populate with info on all engines.
+ * 	item.data_ptr = (uintptr_t)&info,
+ *
+ * 	err = ioctl(fd, DRM_IOCTL_I915_QUERY, &query);
+ * 	if (err) ...
+ *
+ * 	// We can now access each engine in the array
+ * 	for (i = 0; i < info->num_engines; i++) {
+ * 		struct drm_i915_engine_info einfo = info->engines[i];
+ * 		u16 class = einfo.engine.class;
+ * 		u16 instance = einfo.engine.instance;
+ * 		....
+ * 	}
+ *
+ * 	free(info);
+ *
+ * Each of the enumerated engines, apart from being defined by its class and
+ * instance (see `struct i915_engine_class_instance`), also can have flags and
+ * capabilities defined as documented in i915_drm.h.
+ *
+ * For instance video engines which support HEVC encoding will have the
+ * `I915_VIDEO_CLASS_CAPABILITY_HEVC` capability bit set.
+ *
+ * Engine discovery only fully comes to its own when combined with the new way
+ * of addressing engines when submitting batch buffers using contexts with
+ * engine maps configured.
