But in your comment you're saying it won't get restored in case of dc9 and suspend. So that seems to mismatch what you're saying here (and what the commit message says) and what the code does. And this function here is called for resume after suspend/hibernate only. So I still see a mismatch between what you're saying here and what the code does vs. what the comment above says. It would be clear if there's just no comment. And we don't call intel_csr_load_program from random places just for luck, if there's unecessary calls of that its kinda a bug in the code (and we should just remove it). -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
