[PATCH 2/3] drm/i915: Support for the clflush of pre-populated pages

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

 



From: Ankitprasad Sharma <ankitprasad.r.sharma@xxxxxxxxx>

This patch provides a support for the User to immediately flush
out the cachelines for the pre-populated pages of an object, at the
time of its creation. This will not lead to any redundancy and would
further reduce the time for which the 'struct_mutex' is kept locked in
execbuffer path, as cache flush of the newly allocated pages is anyways
done when the object is submitted to GPU.
