[PATCH v4 15/25] drm/i915: Preallocate enough space for the average request

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

 



Rather than being interrupted when we run out of space halfway through
the request, and having to restart from the beginning (and returning to
userspace), flush a little more free space when we prepare the request.
