Hi, Here are patches to initialize first render context to a hopefully, valid state. If pipeline/context is not initialized and we enter rc6 on bdw, the render ring can hung on the first batch submitted. That is atleast the hypothesis this work is based on. The states are stripped from rendercopy_genX's from i-g-t/lib and the state generators are part of i-g-t also. The states are propably overshoot from what can be consider the minimal valid (null) state on the pipeline. I just initialized everything rendercopy does and haven't really put effort on optimizing the state until I get some test results that this indeed solves anything. The state generators can be found here but they are not needed for testing. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~miku/intel-gpu-tools/log/?h=null_state_gen Gen7 and Gen8 seems to atleast survive the boot but Gen6 is totally untested. Here is the branch for testing: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~miku/drm-intel/log/?h=render_state I am interested to know if these patches make matters better/worse for those who have issues with first batch hanging on bdw, but as always, any feedback is greatly appreciated.
