I expected that the test is related to drawing onto the screen.
Hi Thomas,
This server doesn't connect a monitor.
Do you
know what exactly it is testing?
It's a glmark2 test, please see
https://openbenchmarking.org/test/pts/glmark2
the test command is ./glmark2 --annotate -s 1024x768

We've had reports about performance regressions after switching
mgag200 from VRAM helpers to SHMEM helpers. SHMEM pages use
writecombine caching by default, but can also use the platform's
default page caching. Doing so improves the performance of I/O
on the framebuffer.
Mgag200's hardware does not access framebuffer pages directly (i.e.,
via DMA), so enabling caching does not have an effect on consistency
of the framebuffer memory or the displayed data.
