[PATCH i-g-t 2/2] i915/gem_ctx_shared: Avoid clflush by using WC for readback

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

 



As we never officially write to the scratch buffer, the kernel will
leave it in the CPU read domain upon execution. Our attempt to
invalidate the CPU cache on !llc is therefore skipped as the kernel
doesn't believe the backing store has been invalidated. Use a WC mmap to
avoid the CPU cache for readback, and add an extra sanity check that the
scratch buffer is found at the same location after execution. (This
sanity check does not affect the failure rate on bsw, that is only fixed
after realising that we do not clflush for the invalidate prior to the
read).
