drm/i915: Support ro ppgtt mapped cmdparser shadow buffers
For Gen7, the original cmdparser motive was to permit limited use of register read/write instructions in unprivileged BB's. This worked by copying the user supplied bb to a kmd owned bb, and running it in secure mode, from the ggtt, only if the scanner finds no unsafe commands or registers. For Gen8+ we can't use this same technique because running bb's from the ggtt also disables access to ppgtt space. But we also do not actually require 'secure' execution since we are only trying to reduce the available command/register set. Instead we will copy the user buffer to a kmd owned read-only bb in ppgtt, and run in the usual non-secure mode. Note that ro pages are only supported by ppgtt (not ggtt), but luckily that's exactly what we need. Add the required paths to map the shadow buffer to ppgtt ro for Gen8+ v2: IS_GEN7/IS_GEN (Mika) v3: rebase v4: rebase v5: rebase Signed-off-by: Jon Bloomfield <jon.bloomfield@intel.com> Cc: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Cc: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Cc: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Cc: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris.p.wilson@intel.com>
