[PATCH 3/4] drm/amdgpu: don't return when ring not ready for fill_buffer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Ah, crap yeah that won't work since we don't free the ring.

Key point is we need to distinct between the ring doesn't work temporary 
because we are in a GPU reset and it doesn't work at all because we are 
missing firmware or stuff like that.

And no, checking the gpu_reset flag is totally racy and can't be done 
either. How about checking accel_working instead?
