Handle a bit of the boiler-plate in a single case, and make it easier to
add some core tracked stats.

v2: Update drm-usage-stats.rst, 64b client-id, rename drm_show_fdinfo

+Implementation Details
+======================
+
+Drivers should use drm_show_fdinfo() in their `struct file_operations`, and
+implement &drm_driver.show_fdinfo if they wish to provide any stats which
+are not provided by drm_show_fdinfo(). But even driver specific stats should
+be documented above and where possible, aligned with other drivers.

I'm really wondering if it wouldn't be less mid-layering if we let the
drivers call the drm function to print the common values instead of the
other way around?

The idea is that we plug this into DRM_GEM_FOPS and then everyone gets it
by default. So it's a bit a tradeoff between midlayering and having
inconsistent uapi between drivers. And there's generic tools that parse
this, so consistency across drivers is good.

My gut feeling was that after a bit of experimenting with lots of
different drivers for fdinfo stuff it's time to push for a bit more
standardization and less fragmentation.

We can of course later on course-correct and shuffle things around again,
e.g. by pushing more things into the gem_bo_fops->status hook (ttm and
other memory manager libs could implement a decent one by default), or
moving more into the drm_driver->show_fdinfo callback again.

If you look at kms we also shuffle things back&forth between core (for
more consistency) and drivers (for more flexibility where needed).

The important part here imo is that we start with some scaffolding to be
able to do this. Like another thing that I think we want is some
drm_fdinfo_print functions that make sure the formatting is guaranteed
consistents and we don't trip up parsers (like some drivers use " \t" as
separator instead of just "\t", I guess by accident).

On this particular part I'd say it's even better to keep userspace on their toes and not let them hardcode assumption about how much and what whitespace characters to expect.

Otherwise I agree that mid-layer or not can be changed later, as long as my opens from elsewhere in the thread are closed before merging.

Tvrtko

Apart from thatquestion the patch looks good to me.

Ack? Or want the above recorded in the commit message, I think it'd make
sense to put it there.
