The reason for those is that you can sample jiffies between two clock tick updates and calculate a short expiry time. So a different issue than missed updates of jiffies due to some latency. > Should those be converted as well? > > Lucas De Marchi > > > Discard jiffies and change to ktime to detect timeouts. > > > > v2: added bugzilla entry (Imre), added stable (Chris) > > > > Reported-by: Imre Deak <imre.deak@xxxxxxxxx> > > References: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/18/798 [1] > > Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105771 > > Cc: Imre Deak <imre.deak@xxxxxxxxx> > > Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > Cc: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > Signed-off-by: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > --- > > drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_drv.h | 4 ++-- > > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_drv.h b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_drv.h > > index 44ed248f1fe9..33ff2638c92b 100644 > > --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_drv.h > > +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_drv.h > > @@ -49,12 +49,12 @@ > > * check the condition before the timeout. > > */ > > #define __wait_for(OP, COND, US, Wmin, Wmax) ({ \ > > - unsigned long timeout__ = jiffies + usecs_to_jiffies(US) + 1; \ > > + const ktime_t end__ = ktime_add_ns(ktime_get_raw(), 1000ll * (US)); \ > > long wait__ = (Wmin); /* recommended min for usleep is 10 us */ \ > > int ret__; \ > > might_sleep(); \ > > for (;;) { \ > > - bool expired__ = time_after(jiffies, timeout__); \ > > + const bool expired__ = ktime_after(ktime_get_raw(), end__); \ > > OP; \ > > if (COND) { \ > > ret__ = 0; \ > > -- > > 2.14.1 > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Intel-gfx mailing list > > Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx > > > > -- > Lucas De Marchi > _______________________________________________ > Intel-gfx mailing list > Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
