[PATCH 2/5] drm/i915: Expose idle delays to Kconfig

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

 



We want to expose the parameters for controlling how long it takes for
us to notice and park the GPU after a stream of requests in order to try
and tune the optimal power-efficiency vs latency of a mostly idle system.

v2: retire_work has two scheduling points, update them both
