[RFC 2/2] drm/i915: Moved the cache flush outside the 'struct_mutex' lock

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

 



From: Akash Goel <akash.goel@xxxxxxxxx>

Moved the cache flush of the preallocated shmem pages outside
the span of 'struct_mutex' lock. This shall not lead to any
redundancy as the cache flush of the newly allocated pages
will be done anyways when same buffer is submitted to GPU or
when the domain of the object is changed from CPU to GTT
in Gem page fault handler.
