[PATCH] drm/i915: Disable semaphore on vGPU for now

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

 



This is to disable semaphore usage when on vGPU for now. Unfortunately
GVT-g hasn't fully enabled semaphore usage yet, so current guest with
semaphore use would cause vGPU failure.

Although current semaphore failure with vGPU can be simply resolved by
allowing cmd parser to accept MI_SEMAPHORE_WAIT command with address
audit, we're checking general usage of semaphore and how we should
handle it properly for virtualization in consider of function and
security concern. So we decide to request to disable it for now in
guest driver. Once GVT could support it, we would add new compat bit
to turn it on.

Note this needs to queue for -next otherwise next kernel i915 as guest
would be broken for GVT.
