[PATCH] drm/i915: disable cpu relocs on ilk and earlier

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

 



They seem to be implicated in render corruptions. And up to now no one
really seems to understand the issue, so let's just disable them for
now. Most of the machines exhibiting this issue have only a 128 gtt
mmio window, so increased pressure on the mappable part (and so higher
chance for cpu relocs) seems to be the key.

[Note for stable, there's a minor conflict in the context since we've
tuned cpu relocs on gen6+ a bit in 3.7.]
