The second patch should in theory be the fix for the root cause in the miscounting here. I left this here as it makes the count obviously correct irrespective of that patch (though it still grossly overcounts fences as there should be many relocations from the batch to the same tiled bo). The libdrm rewind interface is broken as designed and should be shot unless you actually want to fix it up. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre
