Can I ask?
What does SubVP actually do?
I read on Phoronix that this is new feature of DCN 3.2 hardware
https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMDGPU-Linux-6.5-Improvements
But I didn't notice that anything began to work better after enabling
this feature.
On the contrary, my kernel logs began to become overgrown with
unpleasant errors.
See here: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/2796
I bisected this issue and bisect heads me to commit
299004271cbf0315da327c4bd67aec3e7041cb32 which enables SubVP high
refresh rate.
But without SubVP I also had 120Hz and 4K. So I ask again what is the
profit of SubVP?
