[PATCH i-g-t 2/2] tests/gem_exec_nop: Remove submission batching

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

 



Execbuf requests are now submitted by subtests in batches of 1024
repetitions.  That may be too many under some circumstances (e.g.,
intensive logging output) and subtests may take far more time than
expected.

The reason standing behind that batching was unacceptable microsecond
imprecision of gettime when gem_exec_nop was a benchmark rather than a
test and time measurement was looking for a precision of ~100 ns.
Since that measurement is now mostly informative and not a pass/fail
metric, we can be more tolerant and accept overhead of gettime after
each submission.

Remove the batching from the body of subtests which don't require
submicrosecond precision and measure time after each execbuf request
submission (or a group of one submission per engine).  Since there is
one subtest - "headless" - which still requires more precise time
measurement, don't remove the batching from nop_on_ring() helper but
let its users request non-batched submission mode instead.  To make
this even more flexible, change semantics of the helper argument used
so far for returning the count of submissions completed within the
requested time frame and use it also for passing desired batch size
(number of iterations), then update its users to initialize that
argument according to their individual requirements.
