So my question is why is notify_perfmon_buffer_half_full() not as I've written above and what purpose are these new members half_full_count and half_full_count_last serving? If it is to save a few cycles to adjust the tail in oa_buffer_check_unlocked() (and I am not even sure of that) for an interrupt which fires when half the buffer is full imo it is not worth it. _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
