Hm I was running with those changes and didn't see additional warnings, so I'll have to look again. I agree we want sensible warnings in place, and maybe removing this one is too permissive, but I'd like to avoid a suspending flag if we can. Maybe we just need to bundle up our assertions and check all the relevant state after runtime suspend or S3 like we do for mode set state in various places. That would let us keep our warnings, but also save us from having them spread out in code paths that get used in many different contexts. -- Jesse Barnes, Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
