[PATCH 7/9] drm/i915/execlists: Reduce lock context between schedule/submit_request

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

 



If we do not require to perform priority bumping, and we haven't yet
submitted the request, we can update its priority in situ and skip
acquiring the engine locks -- thus avoiding any contention between us
and submit/execute.
