I had thought that the actual insertion/deletion was serialised under the struct mutex and the intention of the spinlock was to protect the unlocked list traversal during throttling. However, I missed that i915_gem_release() is also called without struct mutex and so we do need the double check for i915_gem_request_remove_from_client(). -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
