So whose behavior is > the right behavior? As I understand it that register flushes the CPU GTT TLBs, and we need to do it because of the WC mapping we have for the GTT PTEs. If we used UC mapping we wouldn't need it since there's supposedly an automagic TLB flush that happens on PTE writes. BSpec is bad at finding some registers via bxml. Using dtsearch and looking for both 0x<offset> and <offset>h is the method I use to track such things down. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel OTC _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
