[PATCH 3/4] drm/amdgpu: report preemption fence via amdgpu_fence_info

[Liu, Monk]

WB _init should clear this buffer in very early stage, so it should output 0 if for BARE-METAL or no preemption occurred

Hi Pixel,

That is correct.

But my question is why you want to print a different value here:
> +		seq_printf(m, "Last preempted      0x%08x\n",
> +			   le32_to_cpu(*(ring->fence_drv.cpu_addr + 2)));

That code prints two dw after the address where the CPU writes the seqno. Where is the code which setups the CP to do this?

As far as I can see that line should always print just zero (or some random number if the memory is actually not initialized to anything).

Regards,
Christian.
