I didn't allow the GPU reset to cause fences to appear to complete out of order, just rewrote them so they would be skipped (with the error status flagged) if the error was terminal but still update the hw semaphore and breadcrumbs (i.e. the user portion was cancel, but our bookkeeping was left intact). -Chris _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
