[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2 4/9] drm/i915: Move the hw semaphore initialisation from GEM to the engine

Chris Wilson chris at chris-wilson.co.uk
Wed Apr 6 12:33:18 UTC 2016


Since we are setting engine local values that are tied to the hardware,
move it out of i915_gem_init_seqno() into the intel_ring_init_seqno()
backend, next to where the other hw semaphore registers are written.

v2: Make the explanatory comment about always resetting the semaphores to
0 irrespective of the value of the reset seqno.
