[PATCH] drm/i915: Optimistically spin for the request completion

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

 



This provides a nice boost to mesa in swap bound scenarios (as mesa
throttles itself to the previous frame and given the scenario that will
complete shortly). It will also provide a good boost to systems running
with semaphores disabled and so frequently waiting on the GPU as it
switches rings.
