[PATCH v2] drm/panfrost: initial dual core group GPUs support

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

 



On a dual core group GPUs (such as T628) fragment shading can be
performed over all cores (because a fragment shader job doesn't
need coherency between threads), however vertex shading requires
to be run on the same core group as the tiler (which always lives
in core group 0).

As a first step to support T628 power on only the first core group
(so no jobs are scheduled on the second one). This makes T628 look
like every other Midgard GPU (and throws away up to half the cores).

With this patch panfrost is able to drive T628 (r1p0) GPU on some
armv8 SoCs (in particular BE-M1000). Without the patch rendering
is horriby broken (desktop is completely unusable) and eventually
the GPU locks up (it takes from a few seconds to a couple of
minutes).

Using the second core group requires support in Mesa (and an UABI
change): the userspace should

1) set PANFROST_JD_DOESNT_NEED_COHERENCY_ON_GPU flag to opt-in
   to allowing the job to run across all cores.
2) set PANFROST_RUN_ON_SECOND_CORE_GROUP flag to allow compute
   jobs to be run on the second core group (at the moment Mesa
   does not advertise compute support on anything older than
   Mali T760)

But there's little point adding such flags until someone (myself)
steps up to do the Mesa work.
