    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">That would be a possibility, but I
      don't think reading the register once during driver startup is a
      real issue.<br>
      <br>
      See you need to hammer on the problematic registers to trigger the
      misbehavior, e.g. not read it once or twice but thousands of
      times.<br>
      <br>
      Additional to that as I said before, VM flushes are not really the
      problem. While investigating this I've worked around the VM flush
      issue by just writing the register value multiple times.<br>
      <br>
      That works around the problem pretty reliable as well and would be
      trivial to implement, but it just doesn't fix the real issue that
      the hardware is dropping register writes.<br>
      <br>
      And dropping register writes can have all kind of problematic
      effects, from performance problems because of not acknowledged
      interrupts, over incorrect calculation results to complete hangs.<br>

              <p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Well there are
                  two misunderstanding here.
                  <br>
                  <br>
                  First of all this solution doesn't really work, it
                  just hides the problem because we don't do a world
                  switch in between those two packets any more. And
                  while we could change the SDMA, UVD and VCE firmware
                  do to something similar you can't apply this solution
                  to CPU based flushes.<br>
                  <br>
                  The second issue is that this isn't related to VMHUB
                  flushing at all, it's just that VMHUB flushing is the
                  first thing where you notice that something is wrong.<br>
                  <br>
                  The real problem is that when you access </span><span
                  style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"
                  lang="EN-US">CC_RB_BACKEND_DISABLE and a bunch of
                  other registers the bus on Vega10 sometimes gets a
                  hickup and drops other reads and writes.<br>
                  <br>
                  So we need to identify those registers and removes all
                  accesses to them, otherwise working with the hardware
                  will just be horrible unreliable in general.<br>

                          <br>
                          well I just figured that this is a
                          misunderstanding.<br>
                          <br>
                          Accessing this register and some other
                          deprecated registers can cause problem when
                          invalidating VMHUBs.<br>
                          <br>
                          This register itself isn't deprecated, the
                          wording in a patch fixing things is just a bit
                          unclear.<br>
                          <br>
                          Question is is that register still accessed
                          regularly or is it value cached after startup?
                          <br>
                          <br>

                                        <br>
                                        I honestly don't have the
                                        slightest idea why we are still
                                        accessing CC_RB_BACKEND_DISABLE.
                                        Maybe it still contains some
                                        useful values?<br>
                                        <br>
                                        Key point was that we needed to
                                        stop accessing it all the time
                                        to avoid triggering problems.<br>
                                        <br>
