</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">It does.</div>

<div class="ContentPasted0">> And in that case, does it allow setting non-snooping PAT indices on</div>

<div><br class="ContentPasted0">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">It allows setting PAT indices specified in https://gfxspecs.intel.com/Predator/Home/Index/45101 .</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">KMD does a sanity check so that it won't go over the max recommended</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">by bspec.</div>
<div><br class="ContentPasted0">
</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">> If so, since the uAPI for discrete GPU devices doesn't allow incoherency</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">> between GPU and CPU (apart from write-combining buffering), the correct</div>

</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">The patch doesn't affect the CPU caching mode setting logic though.</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">And the caching settings for objects created by kernel should remain</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">the same for both CPU and GPU, objects created by userspace are</div>

</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">One question though, what do you mean by non-snooping PAT indices?</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">The PAT index registers don't really control coherency mode in the past,</div>
<div class="ContentPasted0">I believe MTL is the first one that has COH_MODE in the PAT registers.</div>
