I'm not an i915 developer, but so far as I can tell: - The path from intel_engine_cmd_parser is <= 256 KiB for "known users", so that's rather large. - The path from perf_memcpy is either 4k, 64k, or 4M, depending on the type of object, so that seems gigantic, but I think that might be selftest code. - The path from compress_page appears to be PAGE_SIZE, so 4k, which meshes with the limits we set agreed on few weeks ago for the crypto stuff. - The path from guc_read_update_log_buffer appears to be 8k, 32k, 2M, or 8M, depending on the type of object, so that seems absurdly huge and doesn't appear to be selftest code either like the other case. I have no doubt the i915 developers will jump in here waving their arms, but either way, it sure seems to me like you might have a point. _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
