[PATCH 1/2] drm/i915: re-enable semaphores by default

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

 



Not quite. On my i7 2620M (Lenovo T420) the gpu frequently hangs when decoding videos (vaapi) and running OpenGL apps/games at the same time. Disabling iommu makes my system relatively stable even with rc6 enabled. I haven't played with the semaphores however.
