Hi, all:
When gfx executes batch buffer in render ring buffer, it will do context switch .
Since only when the previous batch buffer has finished, the next batch buffer can start. the batch buffer is executed in order. So I think there is no need to do context switch.
Why i915 driver introduce context switch ? If context switch is disabled, what error will occur ?
Why gfx need context switch, can somebody give me a example to use context switch ?
Thanks in advance.
