[Intel-gfx v4 0/2] Delay disabling scheduling on a context

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

 



This is a revival of the same series posted by Matthew Brost
back in October 2021 (https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/96167/).
Additional real world measured metrics is included this time around
that has proven the effectiveness of this series.

This series adds a delay before disabling scheduling the guc-context
when a context has become idle. The 2nd patch should explain it quite well.

This is the 4th rev of this series (counting from the first
version by Matt). Changes from prior revs:

  v4: Fix build error.

  v3: Differentiate and appropriately name helper functions for getting
      the 'default threshold of num-guc-ids' vs the 'max threshold of
      num-guc-ids' for bypassing sched-disable and use the correct one
      for the debugfs validation (John Harrison).

  v2: Changed the default of the schedule-disable delay to 34 milisecs
      and added debugfs to control this timing knob. Also added a debugfs
      to control the bypass for not delaying the schedule-disable if
      the we are under pressure with a very low balance of remaining
      guc-ds. (John Harrison).

  v1: Drop the trace log for intel_context_close (Chris Wilson).
      Add "Tested-by" into patch-2 (Chris Wilson)
      Add JIRA number into patch-0 (Chris Wilson).
      Summaries patch-2s problem and metrics into
      cover letter (Chris Wilson).

Matthew Brost (2):
  drm/i915/selftests: Use correct selfest calls for live tests
  drm/i915/guc: Add delay to disable scheduling after pin count goes to
    zero
