Hi Thomas,
[moving vger to bcc]
mhm, sounds like something isn't running in parallel any more.
We usually don't test the multimedia engines for this but we do test
gfx+compute, so I'm really wondering what goes wrong here.
Could you run some tests for me? Additional to that I'm going to
raise
that issue with our multimedia guys later today.
Yes, I can run some tests for you. Which tests?
Try this as root:
echo 1 >
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/dma_fence/dma_fence_init/enable
echo 1 >
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/dma_fence/dma_fence_signaled/enable
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe > trace.log
Then start the encoding in another shell, after it completed cancel
the cat with cntr+c and save the log file.
Do this one with the old kernel and once with the new one.

I hope I have done this correctly.
All necessary tracing things switched on?
Yeah, that looks like what I wanted to see.
I want to add that this is a headless machine. No monitor connected.
I've just realized that you aren't even using any AMD GPU for
transcoding, so I have no idea why removing the AMD specific workaround
can cause a performance problem for i915.
It must be somehow related to i915 now adding some additional
synchronization in between submissions.
Adding the Intel mailing list, maybe somebody has a better idea.
Regards,
Christian.
