Hi Chris,

Thank you very much for all suggestions. Will do the changes. But for
that question below I don't have the clear answer:

This is a very good question. If it fails, my only concern would be
the sync between HSW_GT_SLICE_INFO and MI_PREDICATE_RESULT_2. But I
don't know how to do this during the exec buf without delaying the
execution. Do you have any suggestion?
