Re: [PATCH 2/2] drm/amdgpu: Use mod_delayed_work in JPEG/UVD/VCE/VCN ring_end_use hooks

Hi Christian,

Since we have strict check on queue status, I don't think original design can cause issue here.

But this change should help improve below case:

1. both enc thread and dec thread try to start begin_use.
2. dec thread gets the chance to finish begin_use process first.
   
3. before dec thread enters end_use, enc thread gets time slot to run through begin_use(No delay work scheduled at that time)
4. dec thread enters end_use, scheduled a delay work
   
5.  enc thread enters end_use, modify this delay work.

It will help reduce one delay work call at least.

Thanks & Best Regards!

James Zhu

Subject: AW: [PATCH 2/2] drm/amdgpu: Use mod_delayed_work in JPEG/UVD/VCE/VCN ring_end_use hooks

 

NAK to at least this patch.

Since activating power management while submitting work is problematic cancel_delayed_work() must have been called during begin use or otherwise we have a serious coding problem in the first place.

So this change shouldn't make a difference and I suggest to really stick with schedule_delayed_work().

Maybe add a comment how this works?

Need to take a closer look at the first patch when I'm back from vacation, but it could be that this applies there as well.

Regards,

Christian.

Betreff: [PATCH 2/2] drm/amdgpu: Use mod_delayed_work in JPEG/UVD/VCE/VCN ring_end_use hooks

 

From: Michel Dänzer <mdaenzer@xxxxxxxxxx>

In contrast to schedule_delayed_work, this pushes back the work if it
was already scheduled before. Specific behaviour change:

Before:

The scheduled work ran ~1 second after the first time ring_end_use was
called, even if the ring was used again during that second.

After:

The scheduled work runs ~1 second after the last time ring_end_use is
called.

Inspired by the corresponding change in amdgpu_gfx_off_ctrl. While I
haven't run into specific issues in this case, the new behaviour makes
more sense to me.
