[PATCH] drm/i915/tgl: Magic udelay to relieve the random lockups with multiple engines

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

 



My current theory is that masks interrupt delivery to the local CPU
during a critical phase. Purely papering over the symptoms with a delay
plucked out of thin air from testing on tgl1-gem.
