Currently, we only track the last request globally across all engines. This prevents us from issuing concurrent read requests on e.g. the RCS and BCS engines (or more likely the render and media engines). Without semaphores, we incur costly stalls as we synchronise between rings - greatly impacting the current performance of Broadwell versus Haswell in certain workloads (like video decode). With the introduction of reference counted requests, it is much easier to track the last request per ring, as well as the last global write request so that we can optimise inter-engine read read requests (as well as better optimise certain CPU waits). v2: Fix inverted readonly condition for nonblocking waits. v3: Handle non-continguous engine array after waits v4: Rebase, tidy, rewrite ring list debugging v5: Use obj->active as a bitfield, it looks cool v6: Micro-optimise, mostly involving moving code around v7: Fix retire-requests-upto for execlists (and multiple rq->ringbuf) v8: Rebase v9: Refactor i915_gem_object_sync() to allow the compiler to better optimise it.
Looks OK, you can upgrade my r-b to v9. Regards, Tvrtko _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
