X will : 1. take a GTT mapping of the frontbufer 2. call set-to-domain write=GTT 3. write into mmap 4. go to sleep for a second or more 5. goto 3. Once it has a write=GTT mmapping and it has not been used for anything else, it will not inform the kernel that it needs to change domain again, because as far as it is aware the memory is still in the correct domain and perfectly coherent. Besides which I keep asking for a PSR property so X can switch to an alternative rendering strategy that should be more power efficient and PSR friendly. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
