Dear Linux folks,


although there are no user visible issues, there is still the following
error message in the log.

>         [    1.235596] i915: render error detected, EIR: 0x00000010

Is there an option that the GTT is dumped on such an error or the
addresses are shown in the logs to exactly see where in memory the
problem is?


Thanks,

Paul
