I know there is supposed to be some kind hw snooping of the ggtt
pte writes to invalidate the tlb, but are we sure GFX_FLSH_CNTL
has no other side effects we depend on?
I spent some time searching through the gfxspec. This GFX_FLSH_CNTL
register only seems to be for

invalidating TLB for GUnit  and (from git log ) we started to do that to
enable WC based GGTT updates.


So if I am not missing anything obvious then this should be safe.
OK.

The only code related complaint I have is that you are now duplicating
that same platform check in two different places. It's always better to
have a single point of truth instead of two or more, so that there is
no risk of introducing bugs due to mismatches.

I agree. I will resend with a static helper function to detect that.


Thanks,

Nirmoy

otherwise this can cause unwanted
side-effects on XE_HP platforms where GFX_FLSH_CNTL_GEN6 is not
valid.
