[PATCH v3 3/5] drm/i915/execlists: Direct submit onto idle engines

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

 



Bypass using the tasklet to submit the first request to HW, as the
tasklet may be deferred unto ksoftirqd and at a minimum will add in
excess of 10us (and maybe tens of milliseconds) to our execution
latency. This latency reduction is most notable when execution flows
between engines.

v2: Beware handling preemption completion from the direct submit path as
well.
v3: Make the abuse clear and track our extra state inside i915_tasklet.
