drm/i915/huc: bump timeout for delayed load and reduce print verbosity
We're observing sporadic HuC delayed load timeouts in CI, due to mei_pxp binding completing later than we expected. HuC is still loaded when the bind occurs, but in the meantime i915 has started allowing submission to the VCS engines even if HuC is not there. In most of the cases I've observed, the timeout was due to the init/resume of another driver between i915 and mei hitting errors and thus adding an extra delay, but HuC was still loaded before userspace could submit, because the whole resume process time was increased by the delays. Given that there is no upper bound to the delay that can be introduced by other drivers, I've reached the following compromise with the media team: 1) i915 is going to bump the timeout to 5s, to reduce the probability of reaching it. We still expect HuC to be loaded before userspace starts submitting, so increasing the timeout should have no impact on normal operations, but in case something weird happens we don't want to stall video submissions for too long. 2) The media driver will cope with the failing submissions that manage to go through between i915 init/resume complete and HuC loading, if any ever happen. This could cause a small corruption of video playback immediately after a resume (we should be safe on boot because the media driver polls the HUC_STATUS ioctl before starting submissions). Since we're accepting the timeout as a valid outcome, I'm also reducing the print verbosity from error to notice. v2: use separate prints for MEI GSC and MEI PXP init timeouts (John) v3: add MISSING_CASE to the if-else chain (John) References: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/7033 Fixes: 27536e03 ("drm/i915/huc: track delayed HuC load with a fence") Signed-off-by: Daniele Ceraolo Spurio <daniele.ceraolospurio@intel.com> Cc: Tony Ye <tony.ye@intel.com> Cc: John Harrison <john.c.harrison@intel.com> Reviewed-by: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison@Intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20221013203245.1801788-1-daniele.ceraolospurio@intel.com
