[PATCH] drm/i915/selftests: Unroll the CS frequency loop

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

 



Having noticed that MI_BB_START is incurring a memory stall (see the
correlation with uncore frequency), we have to unroll the loop in order
to diminish the impact of the MI_BB_START on the instruction throughput.
