[PATCH v2] drm/i915: recheck ringspace after wait+retire

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

 



In {intel,logical}_ring_wait_request(), we try to find a request
whose completion will release the amount of ring space required.
If we find such a request, we wait for it, and then retire it, in
the expectation that we will now have at least the required amount
of free space in the ring. But it's good to check that this has
actually happened, so we can back out with a meaningful error
code if something unexpected has happened, such as wait_request
returning early.

This code was already in the execlist version, so the change to
intel_lrc.c is just to add a comment; but we want the same check
in the legacy ringbuffer mode too.

v2: rebase to latest drm-intel-nightly
