The lazy-gtt is just missing a guard to ensure the buffer is bound in the global gtt before reading through those PTE (impacts other code to avoid allocating mappable GTT space). The beauty is that it forced me to grok the rest of the lazy-gtt, it's deceptively simple. Aside from the lazy-gtt sufficiently speeding up command submission and reopening an old wound that prevents me from usefully analysing performance, the series is tested-by myself. I've so far reviewed everything but the actual mechanics of the PDE, which is not saying much ;-) -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre
