Except I would push that either the entire measurement and hence patch series is bogus (beyond the patches themselves being trivially broken, tested much?), or that it really should be done from a timer and also adjust pinned contexts ala reconfigure_sseu. A bunch of selftests and igt proving that different sseu setups do consume different power (i.e. that we can adjust sseu correctly), along with demonstrating good workloads where autotuning produces beneficial results is a must. Also given Tvrtko's stats, this could all be done from userspace with an extended CONTEXT_PARAM_SSEU, so why would we not do it that way? -Chris _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
