[PATCH 04/55] drm/i915/gt: Treat idling as a RPS downclock event

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

 



If we park/unpark faster than we can respond to RPS events, we never
will process a downclock event after expiring a waitboost, and thus we
will forever restart the GPU at max clocks even if the workload switches
and doesn't justify full power.
