It does not > actually require that request to 'complete' it simply uses it for keeping hold > of reference counts on contexts and such like. > > Previously, the fall back path of polling for space in the ring would start by > submitting any outstanding work that was sat in the buffer. This submission was > not done as part of the request that that work was owned by because that > would > lead to complications with the request being submitted twice. Instead, a null > request structure was passed in to the submit call and a fake one was created. > > That fall back path has long since been obsoleted and has now been removed. > Thus > there is never any need to fake up a request structure. This patch removes that > code. A couple of sanity check warnings are added as well, just in case. > > For: VIZ-5115 > Signed-off-by: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison@xxxxxxxxx> > --- > drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c | 22 +++++----------------- > 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c > index f21f449..82190ad 100644 > --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c > +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_lrc.c > @@ -507,23 +507,11 @@ static int execlists_context_queue(struct > intel_engine_cs *ring, > if (to != ring->default_context) > intel_lr_context_pin(ring, to); > > - if (!request) { > - /* > - * If there isn't a request associated with this submission, > - * create one as a temporary holder. > - */ > - request = kzalloc(sizeof(*request), GFP_KERNEL); > - if (request == NULL) > - return -ENOMEM; > - request->ring = ring; > - request->ctx = to; > - kref_init(&request->ref); > - request->uniq = dev_priv->request_uniq++; > - i915_gem_context_reference(request->ctx); > - } else { > - i915_gem_request_reference(request); > - WARN_ON(to != request->ctx); > - } > + WARN_ON(!request); > + WARN_ON(to != request->ctx); > + > + i915_gem_request_reference(request); > + > request->tail = tail; > > intel_runtime_pm_get(dev_priv); > -- > 1.7.9.5 I need this to fix a leak in a forthcoming patch I have.
