drm/vmwgfx: Assign eviction priorities to resources
TTM provides a means to assign eviction priorities to buffer object. This means that all buffer objects with a lower priority will be evicted first on memory pressure. Use this to make sure surfaces and in particular non-dirty surfaces are evicted first. Evicting in particular shaders, cotables and contexts imply a significant performance hit on vmwgfx, so make sure these resources are evicted last. Some buffer objects are sub-allocated in user-space which means we can have many resources attached to a single buffer object or resource. In that case the buffer object is given the highest priority of the attached resources. Signed-off-by: Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom@vmware.com> Reviewed-by: Deepak Rawat <drawat@vmware.com>
