[RFC 06/11] drm/i915: Disable warnings for TDR interruptions in the display driver.

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

 



Now that i915_wait_request takes per-engine hang recovery into account it is
more likely to fail and return -EAGAIN or -EIO due to hung engines (unlike
before when it would only fail if a full GPU reset was imminent). What this
means is that the display driver might see more frequent failures that are only
a consequence of ongoing hang recoveries. Therefore, let's not spew a lot of
warnings in the kernel log every time a flip fails due to an ongoing hang
recovery, since a) This is to be expected during hang recovery and b) It
severely degrades performance and makes the hang recovery take even longer to
complete, which ultimately might cause the userland window compositor to fail
because the flip is taking too long to complete and it simply gives up, leaving
the screen in a frozen state.
