MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit From: Francisco Jerez <currojerez@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 935a0ff0e1ea62a116848c0a187b13838f7b9cee upstream. We need to set the DC FLUSH PIPE_CONTROL bit on Gen7+ to guarantee that writes performed via the HDC are visible in memory. Fixes an intermittent failure in a Piglit test that writes to a BO from a shader using GL atomic counters (implemented as HDC untyped atomics) and then expects the memory to read back the same value after mapping it on the CPU.
